Solana’s Phantom wallet has come under what was described on the X app as a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack.
Phantom Wallet Attack: No Funds Lost
According to the update shared, the protocol has discovered several attempts to overload its systems. To that effect, some of Phantom’s services have been suspended temporarily until the vulnerability is fixed. It was also announced that all Phantom wallet assets are safe, therefore users have no reason to fret.
Further details about the DDoS attack are yet to be released. Notably, the attack comes only a few months after the Phantom wallet integrated Bitcoin, Ordinals, and BRC-20 tokens, opening itself up for more intense scrutiny from hackers.
Usually, such DDoS attacks are designed to target vulnerabilities in a system. Sometimes, it can be in the form of sending more traffic than the network can handle or overwhelming an application with more requests than it can process.
