LOST MONKE<br />
@TheOnlyNom documents the drain<br />
which breached his Ledger.<br />
WayneNooten
from<br />
the<br />
<strong>Issue</strong> <strong>67</strong> of #Shill zine. The issue that almost didn't make it.<br />
In case you missed it. TLDR My Solana wallet was drained on Friday night 29 July, 2022 (Australian time)<br />
resulting in around 630 Sol value of NFT and $Dust token.<br />
I plead mea culpa for not spreading my assets out across 20 wallets. That's my only mistake. I did not<br />
click on a suspicious link. I did not take part in a dodgy swap. I did not allow access to my wallet.<br />
Read the "Lost Monke" article in this issue to find out what happened.<br />
Now, can I just say that this Solana NFT community space is a great space. I moved from eth back in<br />
June 2021 and the vibe on this chain has always been fantastic. People I have never met in real life<br />
(IRL) on Twitter and in Spaces. I go about publishing #Shill zine each week hoping that it gives artists a<br />
chance to be seen. A platform that increases the amount of eyes that see their work. Every now and<br />
then I get a DM thanking me for including them. Makes it all worthwhile.<br />
What I did not expect is what @Keezerfeld has approached me with. I am flawed and deeply touched. I<br />
have never met Keezerfeld. Never spoken with him. Only corresponded via Twitter. His work has always<br />
been incredible, the reason why his pieces often feature in #Shill zine or on the #Shill cover.<br />
The current cover is @Keezerfeld's latest piece. It will be his first ever<br />
'editions' drop. Finally an affordable way to own a Keez piece! What's<br />
more is that Keez wants to help #Shill get back on its feet after the<br />
recent wallet drain. Purchasing an edition of Keez will help #Shill zine.<br />
"an affordable<br />
way to own a<br />
Keez piece!"<br />
Truly, I don't know what to say other than this man, from across the<br />
world whom I have never met is willing to donate back to #Shill zine. "I<br />
want to donate it to shill to do amazing stuff for the magazine and culture sir." Keez, I am deeply<br />
touched and appreciative of your offer.<br />
A special shoutout also to @LowBrowNative who DM'd me offering to help by giving everything she<br />
has. The most gentle soul on the Solana space always willing to help others over herself!<br />
That's why this issue is late.<br />
Let's see where this goes.<br />
As always, show your love on the Twittersphere with a<br />
simple retweet.<br />
Enough said. You know the drill. Let’s f go!<br />
@Pixeltoy<br />
Maybe devs could so something?<br />

Duppies Rebrands to y00ts<br />
Earlier today Degods announced on its twitter page that they were officially rebranding Duppies to<br />
y00ts. The news was confirmed as @DuppiesNFT changed its name on twitter to “Duppies (rebranded<br />
to y00ts)”. A thread outlining the project’s new identity and direction should soon be released, according<br />
to a tweet from the official Duppies page.<br />
Duppies (y00ts) is the second project in the Degods collection led by Frank Degods. The most hyped<br />
mint of the month has been postponed many times, and the new release date is currently scheduled<br />
sometime in the beginning of August.<br />
According to the official Degods account, the new project page, @y00tsNFT, which is currently private,<br />
will stay that way until Tuesday when applications for y00tlist will open. The public can get a sense of<br />
the new approach to art by visiting y00ts’ website, y00ts.com. According to the website, John Le, one of<br />
the premier 1/1 artists on Solana, will be overseeing the art direction for the project.<br />
Primates announce merch partnership with Trippin Ape Tribe<br />
Primates and Trippin Ape Tribe(TAT) have announced a collaboration. This comes after much speculation<br />
about the two joining forces, especially due to TAT’s takeover week.<br />
The collaboration will involve Primates creating TAT related merchandise and clothing for their first<br />
collection coming soon.<br />
Primates prides itself as a brand built on collaborations, and TAT is the latest to join the project. Some<br />
past announced collaborations include Solana Money Boys and Cets on Creck.<br />
More information about to release of the first collection is expected soon.<br />

Ded Monkes drop art upgrade<br />
TAT art.<br />
Ded Monkes released upgraded art today, the first step in their next phase of execution. Ded Monkes is<br />
a derugged project of 666 dead monkeys that has been holding a stable floor price of around 3 Sol for<br />
the last few months.<br />
Recently, they’ve begun reading at building something that makes rugging more difficult and holds projects<br />
accountable, but concrete details are still not revealed.<br />
The symbol, 【Ø】, has been going around everywhere, accompanied with a slash cutting through profile<br />
pictures. It is believed that Ded Monkes next step will involve other derugged projects, like Bears<br />
Reloaded, to create some form of platform to better the Solana NFT ecosystem.<br />

@JeffbitZA<br />
So, been seeing alot of $eth ‘influencers’ coming into the $sol space & touting their bluechips/best picks. 1stly<br />
welcome what took you so long? 2ndly was Ur first buy @okaybears & then u decided to actually dive in? Or<br />
what brought you? 3rd letsdiscuss the monke in the room.<br />
So some of u (+ som solboys) looking 4 engagement using @ShiLLin_ViLLianTM techniques,have gone as far as 2<br />
say likely slow rug, or not include it in bluechips lists.Alrighty0 I shall now simply put into words the omega bull<br />
tingling i have in DN. My personal peak yet,why?<br />
Whilst moar bluechip(s) have arrived such as @DeGodsNFT & as such monkes may not be at that peak from the<br />
OG run ( healthy for the space & natural), I am more bullish now than then, Ethfluencers Ur picks founders vibe<br />
in @MonkeDAO on the regular, on that note let’s begin.<br />
@MonkeDAO as a community & last bastion of daoness hope is the value. Any talk of slowrug stems from SMB,<br />
the form & function of MD,as a great founder in the space said “matches that of a top corporate” with the added<br />
bonus of monkevibes, inclusivity, friendship, alpha & oppurtuniT.<br />

<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>67</strong>
Why is @SolanaMBS a must include on a bluechip list? Has Provenence, helped shape,mold & inspire the $sol<br />
space. Survived FUD of epic proportions & always comes out stronger thru ideals of monke. Degen mints is unrivalled<br />
as a channel in any discord on planet earth.<br />
Monkeventures, WL, the network potential, meetups worldwide, amazing people like minded & not all excited<br />
about what the hell web3 can become. Reject humanity return to monke! On 2 the catalysts making DN tingle.<br />
Talks 4 MD to acquire SMB are in advanced stages, I can’t even describe the amazingness of that outcome, a<br />
triumph for web3, unleashing the beast that is MD Once it happens? Yup wen $monke? (It will be done right) &<br />
boom catalyst 2. What 3? 5k collection leaves wiggle room.<br />
Last but not least the monkes in MD that make it all of these things & much more,insanely there is far to many<br />
2 mention. So 2 name but a few @supersimon77(vibez) @KQwizzn(best TA biz) @NFTScreenshotah(best memer<br />

@TheBRawlers_<br />
Introducing TheBrawlers, a 2222 supply<br />
project at only 0.15 Solana. Launching Mid-<br />
August! TheBrawlers are a project focused on<br />
Education, Creating Opportunities, Assisting in<br />
the Growth of the NFT space and Longevity.<br />
Many projects rely purely on Secondary<br />
Volume and Initial mint sales to fund their<br />
project and given a month’s time begin to slow<br />
down with the constant fixed expenses they<br />
endure!<br />
Brawlers are owning and operating their<br />
own Recruitment Agency, an Agency which<br />
contains Alpha Callers, Moderators, Collab<br />
Managers to hire out to other Projects in the<br />
NFT space. We will expand our services into<br />
other Blockchains when possible!<br />
Brawlers will provide opportunities for its<br />
Holders to run and operate a Project if<br />
they wish to, by derugging projects and<br />
distributing funds to Employees, The New<br />
owner/s, and the community! With our Agency<br />
and Partnerships made, we can supply a<br />
derugged project instantly with Alpha Calls,<br />
Collabs, Staking, NiftyBOT and Moderators!<br />
Brawlers have already begun creating courses<br />
on educating Holders on how to become a<br />
fully qualified Moderator and Collab Manager,<br />
with other courses to come in the future and<br />
help holders land professional Web 3 jobs!<br />
We will also be developing our own<br />
Ecosystem using the token $BRAWL. Projects<br />
will be able to pay a monthly fee for us to<br />
create a Staking website for them and have<br />
access to our $BRAWL ecosystem. The utility<br />
of this token is for holders to be able to enter<br />
NFT Giveaway raffles via FamousFoxes. The<br />
more projects using our Ecosystem the more<br />
NFT raffles will be hosted for all Holders of<br />
projects to enter into. Further, projects within<br />
the Ecosystem will have discounts to our<br />
services and will be able to make partnerships<br />
easier.<br />
With our ability to become profitable and<br />
provide services to numerous projects we will<br />
in turn provide our Holders will the ability to<br />
find jobs, we will acquire some of the best WL<br />
spots and Free NFT’s from projects for our<br />
holders. Supplying the best Alpha Calls in the<br />
space and overall providing as much value to<br />
holders where we can!<br />

Shil.me in the Shill Zine?<br />
What's up with that?<br />
Shil.me is the first Linktree for NFTs focusing on meaningful interaction. We<br />
offer a lightweight, link-in-bio solution for people to display, verify and interact<br />
with their NFTs allowing for more sophistication than Twitter pfps.<br />
We wanted to move away from the 3D metaverse galleries on offer and build<br />
a 2D experience with significant advantages in customization and performance.<br />
Beyond offering a unique display interface, Shil can provide social engagement<br />
and wallet tracking to users for a broader web3 experience. On-Chain provenance<br />
can be displayed along with users’ recent activity… and soon users will be able<br />
to sell NFTs straight from our platform.<br />
It’s our hope that you’ll try out shil.me and display your work with us!<br />
Currently Shil has multi-chain support and is building out plenty of new features.<br />

BabyApesNFT<br />
Baby Apes started as a just simple collection of 5000 cute Apes but turned out to be one of the<br />
most loved projects in the whole ecosystem of Solana, unfortunately enough the first owner<br />
tried to rug and used the community wallet to fund a new project and used Baby Apes<br />
Connections to fulfill his plans, and after that Turtles tried to get over the project failing in the<br />
attempt because the team wasn’t big enough to deal with two projects at the time, and lastly<br />
leaving the project under new management.<br />
So, what is this new management doing? First, we gonna restructure everything that has been<br />
done for BabyApes, we don’t want to be a utility project but a community-driven project, as we<br />
see how the community overperforms repeatedly any utility at least in NFTS.<br />
This does not mean that we won’t work to bring utility to rewards holders, but sustainably so<br />
the community will be always engaged with our futures plans. Because we see Baby Apes as a<br />
brand, and we want to build towards that goal, to gain back that recognition.<br />
In the short term, we are restructuring the old staking system, that’s the reason we stopped the<br />
staking of BabyApes because it was only killing the coin and it was completely unsustainable.<br />
The new staking system will play along with the coming [Jungle Plots] which also going to play<br />
a huge part in the building of the Bapeverse. Mint funds will be used solely purpose of making<br />
Babyapes + Bapeverse a world brand.<br />
There will doubters and that’s okay, we are here for the long term, and we won’t quit until everything<br />
is fulfilled within our expectations. This is just a new beginning for the Baby Apes.<br />
Collaborations, Auctions, Raffles, Staking, and much more. There’s more going on behind the<br />
scenes than you can see.<br />
Don’t fade the Bapeverse, Don’t fade BabyApes, Don’t fade the community.<br />

SolPatrolNFT<br />
Quick thread on Sol Patrol and the accomplishments we’ve made since minting out on x-mas eve. The project<br />
was started as an experiment, to create a quant DAO but to do it differently than a traditional quant firm. The<br />
idea was simply to crowd-source the “thinking”<br />
The community would work together to create models and theories – while the dev-team would focus on building.<br />
The first set of tools, we would build and then we would allow the community to add features and help us<br />
build the future.<br />
[Over the past few months, we have been working on Patrol Report, that allows direct minting from our site and<br />
allows users to see the communities that are minting the NFT live during the mint.<br />
If you recall the launch of Boryoku Dragonz, it was a lot of insider information that caused certain liquid communities<br />
to mint and market the collection - causing a 200x in a very short period.<br />
If you can see the on-chain data of the communities minting this NFT, then you can make more educated predictions.<br />
The beta for Patrol Report has been launched but is currently under maintenance, as we are wrapping up a<br />
few items on the back end.<br />
You can view a walk-through of Patrol Report on the old UI:<br />
SolPatrol @SolPatrolNFT<br />
The Patrol Report is officially launched in BETA<br />
No more WL hunting<br />
No more insider trading<br />
No more searching for ‘alpha’<br />
Direct minting from Patrol Report coming in the next 48-hrs and check out the explainer video below! $BAIL $SOL<br />
#NFT #SOLNFT @SolPatrolNFT<br />
We also had a big focus on the gamification in Sol Patrol. In January we launched one of the first raffles on Solana,<br />
called the Jail. We used 100% of royalties to buy NFTs from the secondary and placed them in the Jail vault.<br />
Then users were able to release the NFT to their wallet by “posting-BAIL.” We were also able to integrate and test<br />
SolanaPay with this game. The Jail was very important because we burned all the BAIL that was collected in the<br />
Jail.<br />
We recently calculated an approx. amount of BAIL that we burned, and it was 70% of the total circulating supply.<br />
This, combined with a very low emission at the launch of Staking 1.0, we had created a very healthy and sustainable<br />
tokenomics structure for BAIL.<br />
After we released staking and the Jail, we immediately got many requests to do some work for other projects.<br />
Since we only did a 0.15 SOL mint and all royalties were given back to the community, we took these opportunities<br />
to build a larger dev-team.<br />

This article will highlight and discuss the newest venture that the Society will be undergoing in Q3-Q4 2022: The<br />
Menagerie!<br />
MENAGERIE: a place where animals are kept and trained especially for exhibition; a collection of wild or foreign<br />
animals kept…<br />
www.merriam-webster.com<br />
Let’s break it down into three distinct sections for easier digesting:<br />
1. What is the Menagerie?<br />
2. What is our vision for this platform?<br />
3. What will the process look like?<br />
What is the Menagerie?<br />
In short, the Menagerie will be a platform for hosting, displaying, and distributing artwork from 1/1 artists to<br />
holders of the three Secret Sphinx Society collections and eventually those from outside our community. We’ll<br />
commission exclusive pieces and editions from prominent and upcoming artists in the 1/1 space to create a curated<br />
selection of artwork that our holders can purchase with our native tokens, Ankh and Scarab. These pieces<br />
will be purchasable in multiple methods, including minting editions, auctions for singular pieces, and more exclusive<br />
raffles for custom commissioned work.<br />
This platform will be the centerpiece of utility for our Oasis collection, allowing holders of the 200-piece landscapes<br />
to bid on special pieces, claim free editions of major collections, and receive access to holder-gated<br />
content. In the same vein, Sphinx and Pharaoh holders will be able to access all content but won’t receive the full<br />
slate of benefits available to our Oasis holders.<br />
Planned site functionality will include:<br />
• Minting 1/1 art directly to your wallet<br />
• Able to bid on pieces with Ankh and Scarab<br />
• Able to purchase/bid on auctions in Sol (for very special drops)<br />
Additional features that may be included are:<br />
• Able to list items for secondary sale<br />
• Able to tip creators directly without a purchase<br />
54<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>67</strong>
What is our vision for this platform?<br />
The inception of this project stems from the recent boom in the activity of 1/1 art sales on the Solana blockchain,<br />
the popularity of editions among collectors of top creators, and the recent issues around botting that we’ve seen<br />
on 1/1 art platforms. See also my latest Thoughts from the Tomb for an insight into the creative inspiration of this<br />
venture, linked below.<br />
Thoughts from the Tomb<br />
Art and the Human Experience. The thought process behind the Menagerie, and an exposé on artistic expression.<br />
Here’s a more direct, two-fold mission statement for the Menagerie:<br />
1. To increase the collectability and accessibility of 1/1 artwork to smaller-sized wallets and a larger collector<br />
base<br />
2. To give greater visibility to up-and-coming 1/1 artists while providing adequate compensation and the<br />
web3 tools they need to grow their personal brand<br />
We want the Menagerie to eventually feel like a personalized, curated space for artists and art collectors to find<br />
community where it may have been more difficult to connect them beforehand! The overarching goal of this<br />
project would be to serve as an online marketplace more closely aligning with an art gallery, where we work<br />
closely with an artist to create an “exhibit” feel for their pieces with an expansive bank of tools to disperse and<br />
sell their art however they wish to do so.<br />
What will the process look like?<br />
This venture into creating an online marketplace is not a light task, and will most likely take the better part of the<br />
next few months to complete all the stages that have been listed above. I’ll give a rough timeline below, but the<br />
order of how we’re building the Menagerie will follow this outline:<br />
Q3 2022 — August-September<br />
Complete current website overhaul and build out underlying infra for Menagerie website<br />
Q3 2022 — September-October<br />
Roll out token-gated marketplace to begin minting editions to holders in tokens<br />
Q4 2022 — October-December<br />
Further development of all art distribution methods, secondary listing features, and Exhibits curation begins<br />
Most of you are aware of how we at the Society build our infrastructure, but I’ll just offer a small reminder: it’s a<br />
slower process here, and we’re giving ourselves plenty of room to add in features that we find exciting, remove<br />
things that may no longer suit our vision, or pivot as dictated by the macro-conditions and current meta. The<br />
vision of the Menagerie was conceptualized by a meeting of the team at NFT NYC in June, and so we’re not just<br />
doing this because it’s a hot topic + flashy in the current meta. It’s a product and a platform that we feel aligns<br />
with our IP in a distinct manner, and we’re extremely excited to continue our thematic storytelling while also<br />
providing something to our holders with asymmetric intrinsic and collectible value. If you have any questions,<br />
comments, or concerns, feel free to reach out on Twitter or in Discord, and as always…<br />
We keep building.<br />

@ForkedKirk<br />
Today is the day we add the most important @solana primitive for any community...<br />
@Realms_DAOs is now directly integrated on http://grape.art what does this mean, and why?<br />
There is more to NFT collections than just JPEGs, and many of us want to participate, grow, learn, and shape the<br />
future of those communities and the ecosystem...<br />
@Realms_DAOs governance tools enable this decision making for any NFT and Tokenized community in a democratic<br />
way.<br />
So it would be only natural that we would include governance for any community that already has it, because<br />
this provides a layer of transparency of the decision making in those DAOs like @BearsReloaded @MonkeDAO @<br />
DegenTrashPanda and more...<br />
56<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>67</strong>
And why not also see the members of those communities? and if you are a participant... maybe message them<br />
directly using @saydialect<br />
but what about tokenized communities? what if... like an NFT community you can discover Tokenized communities<br />
with governance like @mangomarkets and also quickly and easily see their respective DAO governance<br />

DAM ZINE
RAKKUDOS<br />
LitecoinYagami<br />
A tech company is releasing an NFT on Solana that could change the game forever. Here’s why @rakkudos by @<br />
shakudo_io is your next bluechip opportunity.<br />
This article will cover:<br />
What is Shakudo? Reason(s) Behind the NFT<br />
The Art Utility New Standards<br />
Shakudo is a technology company with a simplified approach to data. Their product is growing rapidly, becoming<br />
a staple for teams in the industry. They offer: Decentralization, Cloud Flexibility, Nodes, and more. Since April<br />
2021, they have raised $4 million in VC funding.<br />
60<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>67</strong>
In terms of their product, their motivation is to “make life easier”. The point is to put an end to the meaningless<br />
complexity of data applications. Instead of using multiple products to build apps, Shakudo provides users with a<br />
cost-effective, competitive, all-in-one solution.<br />
Shakudo supporting decentralization is a big deal. Rather than turn a blind-eye to emerging tech, Shakudo embraces<br />
the future, giving builders a choice. This give them a MASSIVE edge... especially since their services are<br />
cheaper and more efficient than their competitors.<br />
I know what you’re thinking: “Why an NFT?” From the website: “Rakkudos, will act as a catalyst for the growth of<br />
the Shakudo Platform.” This growth entails scaling the developer team and the Shakudo platform itself. But the<br />
real innovation here is in the marketing.<br />
Shakudo wants to motivate holders to act as ambassadors of their company. When holders eventually rep the<br />
Rakkudos NFT on Twitter, they will essentially be marketing for Shakudo. This is a win-win... which could inspire<br />
their competitors to sit up and (possibly) adapt.<br />
This brings us to the art itself. I think it’s PFP worthy. As you may know, there is a science to making NFT art stand<br />
out. A few aspects include: - Bright Colors - Thick Lines - Character (Facial expressions, clothing, etc.) Rakkudos<br />
checks a lot of these boxes.<br />
<strong>SHILL</strong> <strong>Issue</strong> #<strong>67</strong><br />
61
Rakkudos has 3 main utilities:<br />
• Discounts/special offers for Shakudo.<br />
• PAID Referrals for new customers.<br />
• Staking -> $KUDOS (utility token).<br />
Since Shakudo is a multi-chain platform, the possibilities are limitless for builders, ambassadors and the company<br />
itself.<br />
We’ve seen many projects that want to reward their holders for marketing their brand on social media. Real<br />
world, business utility is a concept I can always get behind. Shakudo is pushing the envelope, as well as their<br />
brand within Web3. Everyone should be watching.<br />
TL;DR Shakudo is already a profitable, working product with VC funding. The high-demand Rakkudo mint is the<br />
on top. If the project scales the way it intends to scale, this could set a new standard for data/tech companies<br />
EVERYWHERE... revolutionizing the way they operate.<br />

Rescuing a Lost Monke: Post-mortem on getting a wallet drained and losing my PFP.<br />
First off this thread is not a call for donations. I have funds to recover what is lost and while I appreciate<br />
the love, your money would be better served helping other people!<br />
Secondly: This thread is not a condemnation of any teams or parties involved. Shit happens, I signed<br />
a transaction, we’re dealing with the aftermath. Please read through this, and keep your pitchforks<br />
stowed. It’s tokens and Jpegs, we will make it work<br />
Third: System Specifications Hardware: Asus Laptop - 2020 era OS: Windows 10 Browser: Brave<br />
Extension: Phantom Security: Ledger Nano X - Updated July 2022 Wallet address: 4ZjYSCH3Sib9iMS-<br />
M3QN2sL2kwxNcXG2P4XCemSC2hsyb (Nom.sol) Assets compromised- Roughly 500 SOL - NFTs+Tokens<br />
Fourth: I am not naming the project that involved this, nor any suspected parties involved. The investigation<br />
and audit from the team that this seems to have occurred with is ongoing, and I’m not looking to<br />
jeopardize them and their work. I appreciate them for their response<br />
Main Security <strong>Issue</strong>s: Signing a simulated transaction - Didn't match final execution Staking multiple<br />
NFTs on a wallet with other valuables - Unnecessary Risk Comfort - The Main problem I have spent 4.5<br />
years without a major hack or loss. I got lazy and sloppy, That’s the issue<br />
I spent the day traveling to Solana to organize events. Got to my Hotel, connected through a VPN,<br />
caught up on messages, and went to perform a couple actions with my previously secured wallets.<br />
I attempted to sign a transaction which failed. I then signed a second transaction which included the<br />
method “signAllTransactions”, which you can read below https://docs.phantom.app/integrating/deeplinks-ios-and-android/provider-methods/signalltransactions…<br />
| In this signAll, included SetAuthority<br />
transactions for every account in my wallet<br />
For anyone unfamiliar, what this essentially does is transfer the ownership of a specific token or NFT<br />
from myself “4ZjY”, to a different wallet “Good” This doesn't move the NFT, but is like giving someone<br />
your car keys and registration.<br />
This instruction is explicitly warned about in Solana documentation, and is usually not present in staking<br />
platforms. It's potentially very harmful, especially when not understood by the end user. In this case, I<br />
made a mistake to sign this transaction.<br />
This transaction or series of transactions attempted this for every single NFT and token account inside<br />
of 4ZjY, causing some successful transactions, and some failures. Why failures? Some of these update<br />
calls were to staked NFT (in this case Famous Foxes)<br />
When the transaction attempted to update a staked NFT, it received a failure and moved onto the next<br />
Why did these transactions go through automatically and not require ledger approval? At this point I’m<br />
not sure.<br />
I noticed this shortly after other wallet activities, and looked into it. I contacted several developers and<br />
reached out directly to the team that I had staked with, assuming the most recent transactions would be<br />
80<br />

the ones most likely to have an issue like this.<br />
At this point, the investigation is still ongoing, and there are many minds I respect looking into this. I will<br />
continue to update as I know more<br />
The losses are about ~500 Sol, a significant chunk of what I have on Solana. It includes various ecosystem<br />
tokens, some 1/1 art pieces, as well as NFTs such as my SMB, a Gomu, CWM, Solstead, and<br />
others. At this time I can recover some of these and am thankful to all watching them<br />
A TLDR: I was a tired Monke, using technology I was comfortable with. I should not have accessed a<br />
staking contract with the same wallet that holds other things I value. A ledger can only do so much Protect<br />
yourself and your assets.<br />
@Pixeltoy<br />
Like Nom, I am not calling for donations etc etc. What happened, happened. The world moves on. We<br />
pick ourselves up and re-evalute where we are heading.<br />
On Friday 29 July 2022 this exact drainer code hit my wallet. The loss to my account was around<br />
630Sol floor price.<br />
As per @TheOnlyNom, I casually approved a transaction that I normally do on a staking site I regularly<br />
used.<br />
From what some 'super sleuths' can deduct from tracking this event, the hacker had planted the<br />
code weeks earlier allowing them to scan wallets and choose WHAT they wanted to take. This was a<br />
pre-meditated, planned execution. Whatever was in the targeted wallet was transferred to a chain of 6<br />
wallets. Put for sale on secondary within moments and sold for floor price or under floor price.<br />
The only way that any NFT could have been recuperated would have been to quickly act and reach out<br />
to the projects that issued the NFT. Fortunately for me, Xin Dragons acted quickly and imposed a 98%<br />
fee on the 3 dragons that I lost. They sold on secondary for 31 Sol each- the hacker only received 2%<br />
from the sale. The Xin Dragons team have returned my dragons to a brand-new wallet.<br />
My 2 Monke and 1 Thugbird met with a different end. Like @theonlynom, my Monke sold on secondary<br />
as did my Thugbird for absolute bargain basement prices. My 1st Monke that I have had since pre-mint<br />
sold for 200Sol. My 2nd Monke was up for 230Sol and someone bid 150Sol for it. The hacker let it go<br />
for that price. My Thug was up for 9Sol and he let it go for 7Sol.<br />
I also lost $Dust, 4300. At around $1.30/$Dust. Gone.<br />
With the return of my dragons, the Xin Dragons team saved me 90Sol bringing my loss down to around<br />
540Sol.<br />
Unlike @TheOnlyNom I cannot just buy back what I lost. We are talking over $20k usd. I don’t have<br />
that lying around.<br />
