During a routine transfer, we noticed the 'Community Crowdfunding System' (CCS) main wallet was drained of 2,675.73 XMR (the entire balance) on September 1, 2023. The secondary wallet, used for payments to contributors, is untouched; its balance is ~244 XMR. We have thus far not been able to ascertain the source of the breach. An internal investigation is ongoing and further details will be released once we have them.
The General Fund (which remains intact) will be used to cover this loss. Contributors with in-progress CCS proposals will remain unaffected.
Further details and discussion can be found on this issue on GitHub.
