The Manhattan Project Hack: Atomic Wallet’s Nemesis
Atomic Wallet, the prominent non-custodial wallet with over 5 million users, has reportedly been subjected to an explosive cyber-attack. Users took to Twitter with some reporting complete losses of their crypto portfolios. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

At the time of writing this article, speculation seems to be that the attack could be a supply chain hack. This would suggest that Atomic’s source code was tampered with on the server side with users unwittingly updating to or downloading the maliciously affected version.

While the exact details and fallout are still unclear, some users have reported losses “exceeding six figures”. This comes at a challenging time for Atomic Wallet, as they’re already under the microscope for liquidity issues with their native AWC token, and the listing of $BEN.

However, before everyone piles onto the Atomic proliferation bandwagon, I urge you to stop and look at the organization itself. As someone occupying a senior leadership role at a corporation with over 300 employees, I know what to look for in an organization.

Information online is limited, but as far as crypto firms are concerned, I’m impressed with Atomic’s message and structure. Not many crypto firms have their mission statement, core values, roadmap, doxxed leadership, and more all available online for the public’s edification.

This looks like it might be a good team in a bad situation, so let’s give them a chance to respond and see how the situation plays out.

In closing, Atomic is currently knee deep into this investigation with the help of on-chain detective @zachxbt, known for work in tracing stolen funds. As this situation is still developing, we’re all awaiting more details. If anyone from @AtomicWallet can comment, DM me please.
