What happened

Quick Summary

SpaceX token's deployer rugpulled the project, draining the liquidity pool worth 21,516 $USD and bridged stolen funds to BSC.

Details of the Exploit

SpaceX is an imitation ERC20 token, unrelated to any legitimate projects sharing its name and symbol. The deployer siphoned off the liquidity in UniSwap by selling SpaceX tokens for 13.16 $ETH across two transactions. The drained funds were subsequently bridged over to the Binance Smart Chain through Multichain Bridge.
