Normie Coin Hacked

Memecoin Normie was attacked and its price dropped by more than 99% in one minute. These types of attacks are common, so it’s not surprising for investors. Typically, attackers inflate the supply and sell the newly minted tokens, draining all liquidity pools and causing the price to plummet.

This was the case for Normie as well. A flash loan attack caused its market value to plummet from $40 million to $200,000. WuBlockchain announced the bad news as follows:

“Memecoin Normie was attacked, and its price dropped by more than 99% in one minute, causing its market value to fall from $40 million to below $200,000. Normie’s supply was significantly increased, and the attacker used a loophole in the contract’s tax mechanism to carry out the flash loan attack.”

The price, which was hovering around $0.05, suddenly added several zeros, shocking investors. Those with tens of thousands of dollars in investments were left with only a few dollars.

Meme Coins and Risk

Code auditing is extremely important in cryptocurrencies, but it is often overlooked in meme coins. Teams unwilling to bear the thousands of dollars in auditing costs fail to detect such smart contract vulnerabilities, leading to millions of dollars in losses. This is especially common in meme coins due to their rapid circulation. New meme coins enter circulation daily, and unfortunately, most are merely adaptations of smart contracts from other projects.

Thus, the developers may not have full technical proficiency. Investors need to be aware of these risks and understand that similar issues can repeatedly occur with meme coins. By paying attention to audited and certified smart contracts, you can reduce (though not completely eliminate) the risk of waking up to a 99% loss.

Bitcoin is at $69,000, and altcoins are generally continuing the day in the green.
