Recently, EOS platforms seem to be struggling to withstand security threats, but they do not always succeed. A few days ago, DEOSGames, the EOS betting platform, was hacked. Within an hour the user named "runningsnail" won the jackpot 24 times for the sum of 4,700 EOS tokens (about $24,000).

And then EOSBet also attracted close attention. Over the last 36 hours, the platform paid one user more than $600,000 in the EOS cryptocurrency. The user doubled the invested money at the expense of consecutive bets, he became the only winner for many transactions, which indicates a low probability of this event. However, EOSBet denies the possibility of hacking and calls the payment lucky.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?

  • A few days ago, a hacker managed to steal a relatively small amount, however, experts note the increase in the number of small hacker attacks on d-apps on the EOS blockchain.
  • Attackers also cracked the gambling game EOSBet.io, using a bug in the system. As a result of the analysis of this incident, it was possible to detect a critical vulnerability in the EOS network. To fix the situation, the EOS management launched a program to find bugs.
