Maya Protocol founder AaluxxMyth said the protocol was exploited for about 20 BTC and $300,000 in other assets. Global halt. About 48.87 million CACAO drained from Asgard.
AaluxxMyth, Maya Protocol’s founder, said the protocol was exploited. About 20 BTC, near $1.4 million, and about $300,000 in other assets. That is the $1.7 million print. The team put on a global halt. Swaps are off while they work a fix.
This is a halt. It is not a bitcoin tape.
AaluxxMyth posted the Discord note, then on X on Wednesday, saying the team would work to fix and recover in full. CertiK Pulse repeated the same $1.7 million founder line.

AaluxxMyth said a large part of the damage sat in extreme slippage, absorbed by arbitrage and pool fees. The team hopes the attacker takes a bounty and sends the coins back. If not, the founder said they would try to refill the $1.4 million through Aztec Chain investments and other means, then put 20 BTC back in the pool.
That is a target. The coins are not back.
