It was an offline multi-sig wallet. Hackers seem to have musked the transaction when the owners signed it as it looked good to them.


Wow it must have been really musked then, huh?


A “musked” transaction consists of payload obfuscation and spoofing, more often than not malicious actors create a genuine looking UI with legit transaction details, while being malicious underneath.

It’s basically phishing at a transaction signing level.

I only found the term a few weeks ago and thought I was the one left out, sorry for not defining it earlier.

It’s got an eerie ring to it though, right?
