KICKICO ICO platform was exploited on July 26, 2018 when attackers gained access to the private key managing the KICK token contract. The attacker destroyed KICK tokens at 40 addresses and recreated them at 40 attacker-controlled wallets, stealing over 70 million KICK tokens worth $7.7 million. KICKICO regained control by switching to a cold-storage key.

KICKICO has experienced a security breach, which resulted in the attackers gaining access to the account of the KICK smart contract — tokens of the KICKICO platform. The team learned about this incident after the complaints of several victims, who did not find tokens worth 800 thousand dollars in their wallets. During the investigation, it was found that the total amount of stolen funds is 70,000,000 KICK, which at the current exchange rate is equivalent to $ 7.7 million.
