Serenity Shield, a project aiming to solve "crypto inheritence", has been hacked. Although the project prominently claims to help "ensur[e] your financial and personal security", they seem to have some trouble ensuring their own.An attacker stole 6.9&nbsp;SERSH tokens from a MetaMask wallet belonging to the project. Although the tokens were <a href="https://blog.mollywhite.net/cryptocurrency-market-caps-and-notional-value/" target="_blank">ostensibly priced</a> at $5.6&nbsp;million, the thief was only able to sell them for around $586,000.Serenity Shield confirmed the breach, and encouraged people to stop trading $SERSH as they planned to relaunch the token. "Rest assured, we are deploying all necessary safety measures to ensure a foolproof system," they wrote. This time it will be secure, they promise.The team also sent a message to the hacker, offering a 15% "bounty" and a promise not to pursue legal action in exchange for the return of the stolen funds.According to crypto sleuth zachxbt, the attack seems to be linked to exploits of <a href="https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/?id=okx-dex-hack" target="_blank">OKX</a> (December 2023) and <a href="https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/?id=concentric-finance-exploit" target="_blank">Concentric</a> (January 2024).
