SingularityNET (AGIX/WMTx Bridge Key Compromise)
Auto-generated score, not yet verified against the scoring model. Under review — treat as indicative, not a verdict.
Summary
In September 2026, a compromised offline signing key used to authorize cross-chain conversions on the linked Fetch.ai/SingularityNET/NuNet/World Mobile token-bridge stack allowed an attacker to drain FET from Fetch.ai's TokenConversionManagerV3 contract and illegally mint hundreds of millions of AGIX, NTX, and WMTx tokens. The exploit caused AGIX's price to collapse over 99% within 24 hours, wiped an estimated $93 million in AGIX market capitalization, and left the attacker holding an estimated $16.77 million across five tokens. As of the most recent reporting, SingularityNET had not issued a standalone public incident statement, and the compromised authorizer key reportedly remained unrotated more than 48 hours after the exploit began.

19 September 2026
Attacker uses a compromised bridge conversion-authorizer key to call conversionIn on Fetch.ai's TokenConversionManagerV3 contract, draining approximately 8.72 million FET (~$1.53-1.55M) at 20:21:47 UTC.
Crypto TimesSeptember 2026
Using a separately compromised, reportedly dormant 2023 NuNet minter key, the attacker mints 408.5 million NTX (about 42% of total supply) roughly 29 minutes after the FET drain.
Crypto TimesSeptember 2026
World Mobile Chain publicly confirms exploitation of the SingularityNET cross-chain bridge, roughly 8-9 hours after the initial drain.
Crypto TimesSeptember 2026
Fetch.ai issues its first public acknowledgment of "converter-related" incident reports, approximately 10 hours after the initial exploit transaction.
Crypto TimesSeptember 2026
On-chain analytics firm PeckShield reports that the same attacker had illegally minted 260 million AGIX and 53.838 million WMTx on Ethereum via the compromised SingularityNET bridge.
Crypto TimesSeptember 2026
Fetch.ai pauses its Ethereum-side bridge contract and freezes the AGIX-FET migration contract as a precautionary measure.
Crypto EconomySeptember 2026
AGIX price collapses more than 99% within 24 hours of the mint, wiping an estimated $93 million in market capitalization; NTX falls to a reported all-time low.
Blockzeit / CoinotagSeptember 2026
PeckShield and subsequent reporting place total attacker-controlled value across five tokens at approximately $16.77 million, with roughly $2.25 million already realized through sales; the compromised authorizer key reportedly remains unrotated.
