Shido token plummets 94% as exploiter drains Ethereum staking contract
The token for the layer-1 blockchain Shido dropped as much as 94% in just 30 minutes after suffering an exploit on its Ethereum-based staking contract. Blockchain security firm PeckShield alerted its followers to the drop in a Feb. 29 X post. In a follow-up post, it explained an exploiter managed to transfer the blockchain’s Ethereum staking contract to another address with the new owner then upgrading the contract with a hidden function to withdraw staked tokens.
