How scoring works →Summary
Molt EVM (ticker: mEVM) is an ERC-20 token deployed on the Base blockchain and traded via the Aerodrome decentralized exchange. On March 7, 2026, the protocol suffered a critical access-control exploit in which an attacker bypassed the onlySpawnerToken minting guard by directly overwriting the unprotected setSpawnerToken() function, minting approximately 31.5 quintillion mEVM tokens and swapping them for roughly $127,000 in WETH. ZachXBT has flagged the entity, and the token price collapsed to near zero following the incident.
