CrediX Just Pulled Off a $4.5M Comeback After Getting Hacked
On August 4, 2025, CrediX got wrecked—$4.5 million gone after a hacker grabbed admin access and drained the protocol. But plot twist: the hacker is giving the money back.
Yup, CrediX made a private deal to recover the stolen crypto. In a post on X, the platform confirmed the attacker agreed to return the full $4.5M within 24–48 hours in exchange for an undisclosed payment (yeah, they definitely paid a little ransom). Once the funds are in, CrediX promised to airdrop refunds straight to user wallets within two days. That’s a win for the community.
Here’s how it happened: the hacker got access to a high-permission admin wallet. Using it, they created a fake account with full bridge privileges—basically god mode. They minted tokens, borrowed real assets, and vanished.
The drama went down just as crypto hacks are spiking. In July 2025 alone, hackers stole $142M across 17 exploits—a 27% jump from June. Major platforms like CoinDCX, GMX, and Bybit also got hit.
It’s move to negotiate might raise some eyebrows, but at least they’re getting user funds back. Not every protocol can say that.
For now, if you’re a CrediX user—hold tight and check your wallet. Refunds are on the way.
