What happened
Several FTX users were hacked and stolen coins, which 3Commas said was due to phishing websites. In a collaborative investigation conducted by 3Commas and FTX, it was discovered that some API keys were associated with new 3Commas accounts, but the API keys were not obtained from 3Commas, but from outside the 3Commas platform. At the same time, FTX will provide a total of approximately $6 million in compensation to FTX accounts affected by the phishing incident.
