<h2 data-ct-non-breakable="true" id="developer-says-he-hacked-atari-s-onchain-game-leaderboard-to-prove-a-point">Developer says he hacked Atari’s “onchain game” leaderboard to prove a point</h2>
<p data-ct-non-breakable="true">Stackr Labs CEO Kautuk Kundan claimed on X that they hacked Atari’s crypto arcade game that was supposedly built on the layer-2 network Base to prove it was not onchain. The developer said he and his team sabotaged the game’s leaderboard without playing it.</p>
<p>Despite Base and Atari marketing the game as “onchain” and requiring the minting of an NFT to play, the developer said that when the user starts the game, nothing happens onchain. The developer added that after playing, there is an application programming interface (API) call to Web2 servers. So, instead of playing, the developer claimed that they manipulated the scoreboard simply by sending API calls.</p>

<p data-ct-non-breakable="true">Scam investigator Stephen “Coffeezilla” Findeisen responded to influencer Logan Paul’s lawsuit through a video and said that the online celebrity is using the law to crush a new investigation. Coffeezilla claims that the lawsuit started just as he began asking Paul and his team for comments on his involvement with Liquid Marketplace, a project being sued by the Ontario Securities Commission in Canada.</p>
<p>Findeisen believes that the suit is groundless and clarified that he is being sued not for his original investigation videos on the CryptoZoo NFT project but for videos of him criticizing Paul’s refund program.</p>

<p data-ct-non-breakable="true">Popular blockchain game Notcoin announced that it will create a story-driven game with the Lost Dogs NFT collection. The project aims to engage in deeper user interaction and transition from just crypto into a community movement.</p>
<p>The Web3 game project recognized that its tap-to-earn model would not sustain long-term growth and engagement. Because of this, they winded down its mining phase when it peaked in April.</p>

<p data-ct-non-breakable="true">NFT gaming chain Ronin’s network bridge almost lost $10 million in Ether (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/ethereum-price" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETH</a>) due to a vulnerability discovered by a maximum extractable value bot. The bot drained nearly 3,996 ETH in what appears to be an accidental front-running attack.</p>
<p>Despite this, the amount was refunded, and the team behind Ronin said they would reward the hacker with a $500,000 bounty. The team also said they would patch the vulnerability before reopening the bridge.</p>
