NGRAVE users were targeted by a phishing attack that hijacked the company’s LIQUID push notifications, tricking them into revealing recovery phrases or NGRAVE Perfect Keys.

According to blockchain‑analysis firm Bitquery, the incident on Oct. 17 resulted in approximately $2.65 million lost across 84 wallets. An additional $2.16 million of suspected scam funds was routed to Hyperliquid. The event highlights the vulnerability of users to social‑engineering attacks even when using hardware‑based wallets.

    NGRAVE users lose $2.65 million in phishing attack exploiting LIQUID app notifications

    Report first recorded Oct 20, 22:06

    Hackers stole approximately $2.65 million from 84 cryptocurrency wallets by compromising NGRAVE's LIQUID companion app push notifications in an Oct. 17 attack. The fraudulent messages falsely warned users their portfolios had been synchronized with a Pixel 9 device in Moscow, directing victims to enter recovery phrases or NGRAVE Perfect Keys. Attackers drained about $1.76 million in Bitcoin from 21 wallets and moved proceeds across multiple blockchains, eventually purchasing $2.16 million worth of XMR tokens tracked to Monero's price. As of Oct. 19, the XMR tokens remained unsold and unwrapped in identifiable accounts.
