On December 4, 2024, the protocol suffered a critical smart contract exploit in its staking contract that drained approximately $480,000–$500,000 worth of VSTR tokens — an attack that occurred less than one month after the token began trading. Stolen funds were laundered through Tornado Cash, the token price collapsed by roughly 50%, and the project's ability to fully compensate affected users remains unresolved.","timeline":[{"date":"2023-03-01","event":"Vestra DAO project inception date per CertiK records.","source":""},{"date":"2024-08-05","event":"CertiK delivered second security audit; 14 findings identified including 3 major issues; no critical issues flagged.","source":""},{"date":"2024-10-29","event":"CertiK granted Vestra DAO a Gold team verification badge with 4 verified core team members.","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-01","event":"VSTR token begins trading on Uniswap V3 (approximate date, approximately one month before the exploit).","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-04","event":"Attacker stakes 500,000 VSTR in the locked staking contract, beginning a one-month preparation phase for the exploit.","source":""},{"date":"2024-12-04","event":"Exploit executed: attacker repeatedly called unStake() on an inactive staking position, draining approximately 73,720,000 VSTR (~$480,000–$500,000).
