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.


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.

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.
