Fortunately, the theft was confined to the liquidity pool and does not impact users’ funds on the AirDAO blockchain or exchanges. Additionally, the security of AirDAO’s multisig remains intact, providing reassurance to stakeholders.

Efforts are underway to replenish the Uniswap liquidity pool promptly to mitigate any disruption caused by the theft. Despite the incident, AirDAO’s native token, $AMB, has demonstrated resilience, posting a 6% gain today and maintaining stability with its current trading price at $0.012.

As the investigation progresses and measures are implemented to enhance security, AirDAO remains committed to safeguarding the interests of its community and maintaining the integrity of its platform.
