AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
Humanity Protocol, a crypto project focused on online identity verification, suffered a significant breach on June 9, 2026. An attacker compromised a member's private key, draining at least 17 wallets and causing losses of over $32 million. The attacker swapped $23.7 million of stolen H tokens for Ethereum and minted 100 million new H tokens on the BNB Chain. As a result, the H token price plummeted from $0.70 to $0.08, a drop of over 87% in under 12 hours. Founder Terence Kwok confirmed the breach and urged users to avoid the bridge and liquidity pools.
