Serenity Shield
Summary
Serenity Shield is a blockchain-based data storage and crypto inheritance protocol built on BNB Smart Chain, operating a product called StrongBox. On February 27, 2024, a team MetaMask wallet was compromised and 6.9 million SERSH tokens valued at approximately $5.6 million were stolen, causing the token price to collapse by over 95% within 24 hours. On-chain investigator ZachXBT linked the attacker to a serial hacker responsible for multiple private-key compromise incidents across at least six other protocols in late 2023 and early 2024.
