Restoration of User Balances by Telcoin After Recent Exploit

In a recent announcement, Telcoin confirmed the restoration of all user balances. This comes not long after an exploit, which led to the unauthorized transfer of funds amounting to $1.2 million from certain user accounts.

Company's Swift Response to the Exploit

The decision to proactively restore the impacted users' wallets using the company's treasury funds was a prompt and straightforward one. The Telcoin team was commended for their quick action. The CEO and founder of Telcoin, Paul Neuner, was at the forefront of this initiative.

Details of the Exploit

At the end of last year, Telcoin experienced an exploit owing to an error associated with a wallet implementation on Polygon$0.967 -3.65%. This error caused a reduction in user balances as shown on the Telcoin mobile application. Telcoin is known for developing financial tools for mobile users, including trading and remittance applications.

Technical Conflict Led to Withdrawal of Assets

The problem reportedly arose from a malfunction in the functionality between Telcoin's digital wallet and a proxy contract. This caused the proxy to incorrectly perform certain storage functions. This technical conflict then allowed for the unauthorized withdrawal of assets, according to Paul Neuner. It was confirmed that no admin keys were leaked, therefore, the wider Telcoin ecosystem remained unaffected by the exploit.

Actions Taken Post-Exploit

Following the exploit, Telcoin preemptively restored funds from the company's treasury. Meanwhile, they collaborated with top blockchain security experts and law enforcement agencies to freeze and recover the stolen funds.

Increased Deposits Post-Restoration

In the wake of the swift resolution, there was a significant surge in deposits, further boosting positive sentiment among users. On the first day since the restoration of Telcoin App services, there was over a 400 percent increase in deposits compared to the previous month. For every $1 withdrawn, $3.60 was deposited, the company revealed.
