      Tweet thread by Emin Gün Sirer:

      Stars Arena was hit with a new exploit today. Remember that Stars Arena was built by The Builder and the Arena team. But they have quite a few friends and a fantastic product that has proven its virality in the market. The amount lost is only $3m. I'm confident that the hole will be plugged. 

Let's now give the team some time to make the code changes required.

Reading the comments, you would think that there was a $30B hack. Stars Arena is a profitable service that makes money. The amount lost, $3m, is something that SA can recover in about 10 days or so. Worst case, the team can borrow $3m and pay it back with interest. 

Remember…

Speaking of speed bumps, SA needs something like this. Check the date, by the way.
