Summary

MonoSwap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) and launchpad built on the Blast L2 network that launched in late February 2024. On July 24, 2024, the protocol was compromised via a social engineering attack in which a developer was tricked into installing infostealer malware disguised as a video conferencing app, allowing attackers to drain approximately $1.3 million in staked liquidity. The stolen funds were subsequently laundered through Tornado Cash, and the protocol has remained largely inactive with negligible TVL since the incident.
