RetoSwap: Haveno trading protocol suffers hacker attack, RetoSwap bans trading

Foresight News reported that the peer-to-peer multi-signature DEX RetoSwap, which is based on the Tor network, tweeted that its upstream open-source project Haveno's trading protocol suffered a hacker attack. Subsequently, RetoSwap blocked the attacker's onion address and temporarily suspended trading through a client version restriction. The RetoSwap team itself was not attacked. The main impact of this incident was on large-scale crypto trades, while fiat currency traders have not been affected. The team is currently evaluating solutions to help affected users recover their funds.

In addition, according to monitoring by PeckShield, RetoSwap users lost approximately 7,000 XMR (about 2.7 million US dollars) in this attack.

Foresight News notes that RetoSwap is a fork (branch/derivative) project of Haveno.
