What happened
According to an announcement from Paradex, the internal systems of the Mithril trading bot were compromised by an attacker, resulting in the exposure of approximately 57 user subkeys. While these subkeys do not allow withdrawals, they grant trading permissions and are commonly used to connect third-party applications and trading bots. Paradex has suspended all XP transfers and revoked all subkeys associated with Mithril. The affected users are limited to accounts that had previously authorized the Mithril bot. The team also reminded users to exercise caution when authorizing third-party services and to independently assess the associated risks.
