On March 5, 2024, the protocol suffered a critical oracle manipulation exploit on Arbitrum in which an attacker used flash loans to manipulate WOO token pricing to near zero, stealing approximately $8.75 million; funds were not recovered. The parent platform WOO X also suffered a separate $14 million phishing-linked breach in July 2025 attributed to North Korean state-sponsored threat actors, compounding the ecosystem's security record.","timeline":[{"date":"2019-01-01","event":"WOO Network (originally Wootrade) founded by Jack Tan and Mark Pimentel, co-founders of Kronos Research.","source":""},{"date":"2021-01-01","event":"WOOFi Swap launches as the DeFi product arm of WOO Network, operating with the sPMM algorithm.
