Summary

Hacken Token (HAI) is the native utility token of Hacken, a Ukrainian-founded Web3 cybersecurity company established in 2017 that audits smart contracts and blockchain infrastructure for over 1,500 clients worldwide. In June 2025, a private key controlling HAI minting privileges was compromised during a bridge infrastructure migration, allowing an attacker to mint approximately 900 million tokens and dump roughly $253,000 worth on decentralized exchanges, causing a near-99% price collapse. The incident drew industry-wide attention due to its irony — a company whose business model is built on securing others' blockchain infrastructure had maintained a single-key minting architecture for over five years without multisig protection.
