🚨 The Most Chaotic Heist in Crypto: Draining $190M with CTRL+C!

In August 2022, the Nomad cross-chain bridge pushed a routine update but made a fatal error: they accidentally set their security verification code to "zero." This meant the smart contract automatically approved any withdrawal request.

Alexander Gurevich noticed, sent a fake request, and turned $2,300 into $2.3 MILLION in one click. 🤯

Because the blockchain is transparent, 300+ random strangers saw his transaction on Etherscan. They literally copy-pasted his exact code, swapped in their own wallet addresses, and hit submit. In just 4 hours, a mob of strangers drained $190 MILLION. No complex coding—just pure copy-paste robbery.

Fast forward three years: Gurevich was finally caught by the FBI at an airport, trying to flee with a fake passport. The other 299 wallets? Still permanently tagged on Etherscan today. 👀
