Astra Nova's RVV token launch was disrupted when a third-party market maker account was compromised. The attacker gained access and liquidated 8.6% of the token supply for approximately $10.2M in USDT, causing the token price to plummet 75%. The attacker held stolen funds in USDT on a centralized exchange, allowing the team to coordinate recovery efforts.

Astra Nova announced on X that its third-party managed account was compromised, allowing the attacker to take control and liquidate assets. The team stated that they are taking necessary measures and will involve law enforcement once evidence collection is complete. They also emphasized that the smart contracts and infrastructure remain secure. According to monitoring by @ai_9684xtpa, the attacker associated with Astra Nova dumped tokens and gained at least $9.09 million in profit. Among them, the addresses beginning with 0x9E6 and 0x643 profited more than $6.18 million. Except for address 0x643, which used Zerion to sell, most of the sales were executed through 1inch.
