In June 2024, an access control vulnerability in a third-party Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP) contract was exploited, resulting in the extraction of approximately $1.387 million, of which 90% was subsequently returned by the attacker acting as a whitehat. The $YOLO token has since collapsed approximately 99.6% from its all-time high and the protocol shows near-zero fee activity as of 2025-2026, suggesting severe user attrition or effective abandonment.","timeline":[{"date":"2024-02-29","event":"YOLO Games completes a token snapshot at Blast block height 19332142 for Season 1 airdrop eligibility.","source":""},{"date":"2024-05-27","event":"Cantina security competition for YOLO Games' core smart contracts begins, covering 10 Solidity contracts with a $27,500 prize pool.","source":""},{"date":"2024-06-01","event":"YOLO Games publicly launches on Blast mainnet.","source":""},{"date":"2024-06-08","event":"Cantina security competition closes with 199 findings submitted.","source":""},{"date":"2024-06-09","event":"YOLO Games deposits 354 ETH and 888,888,888 YOLO tokens into the Bazaar LBP smart contract for the token launch sale.","source":""},{"date":"2024-06-10","event":"Attacker exploits the exitPool() function in the Bazaar LBP contract — a missing permission check allows extraction of approximately 392 ETH and 880,539,680 rYOLO tokens (~$1.387M).
