PANews reported on November 20th that GoPlus issued a security alert: Users who received the DMT token airdrop from @dexmaxai are urged to immediately cancel authorization or transfer their assets to a secure wallet. Multiple users reported being scammed today, claiming they were tricked into authorizing other tokens when receiving the DMT airdrop. This has resulted in the theft of assets from thousands of users and the cross-chain transfer of over $130,000. The official @dexmaxai Twitter account and website have removed RUG from their platform.
The investigation revealed that when users claimed the airdrop, the attackers tricked them into signing again to obtain authorization, and then transferred the authorized assets. After stealing the funds, the attackers used a cross-chain bridge to transfer the assets to ETH. Most of the stolen funds have flowed into HitBTC, while a small portion remains on the blockchain.



BitGo’s move creates further competition in a burgeoning European crypto market that is expected to generate $26 billion revenue this year, according to one estimate. BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
