PANews reported on October 16th that, according to Decrypt, the official Dota 2 YouTube channel was briefly compromised on Wednesday. The attacker promoted a Solana-based token, dota2coin, through a fraudulent livestream. While there's currently no evidence of user data being compromised, Decrypt confirmed the existence of the video through logs. The livestream, titled "Dota 2 Official Meme Coin Launch | Come Now," included a link to the PumpFun token, whose description in turn linked back to the official Dota 2 channel. As of press time, the meme coin's market capitalization has fallen to approximately $5,500, a drop of approximately 21% from its launch. On-chain data shows that the token was created within hours of the attack, with less than 3% of the bonding curve progressing, and over 98% of the token supply concentrated in a single wallet. Users on the r/DotA2 subreddit on Reddit quickly documented the attack, posting screenshots of the fake token promotion and warning others not to participate. Additionally, users reported that PGL, the Romanian esports organizer responsible for hosting Valve-sanctioned Dota 2 tournaments, had also been hacked.PANews reported on October 16th that, according to Decrypt, the official Dota 2 YouTube channel was briefly compromised on Wednesday.
