On the day of launch, blockchain investigator ZachXBT flagged the theft of eight Hypurr NFTs from compromised HyperEVM wallets, yielding approximately $400,000 in profit for the attacker. The collection itself is a legitimate product of the Hyper Foundation, but the incident exposed wallet security vulnerabilities in the HyperEVM ecosystem and coincided with a broader pattern of exploits across Hyperliquid-based protocols in late September 2025.","timeline":[{"date":"2024-11-01","event":"Hyperliquid Genesis Event launches, marking the HYPE token launch.
