Unleash Protocol, a project promising to allow creators to register their intellectual property on the blockchain, has been exploited for around $3.9 million. An attacker was able to gain administrative access, despite the project's governance system ostensibly being protected by a multisignature wallet. They then deployed a new smart contract, which allowed them to siphon assets from the project. The attacker then bridged the funds to ETH and laundered them via the Tornado Cash cryptocurrency mixer.
