Funds moved to: 146.60 BNB (~$84,426 at block price / ~$87,402 per TenArmor) received by attacker contract after exploit. 7 BNB (~$4,031) paid to Puissant Payment (MEV/block builder fee).

Attacker contract (Interacted With): 0xc08106a36BfA9CFad264F0d64fC45B93543485Ec | Exploit tx hash: 0xe31c681eee764fb94b1b6bda3bbb0e4f25acb129c19040b9f58ad30541980979 | Block: 102329719 | Timestamp: Jun-04-2026 08:38:09 PM UTC | Method: 0xea847f11 | Flashloan source: Lista DAO Moolah (~422,497 WBNB). Attack mechanism: attacker takes flashloan, executes swaps on PancakeSwap to acquire BY tokens, calls public unprotected triggerAutoBurn() (internal _autoBurn function), which burns ~67,800 BY direct

Timeline: June 4, 2026 20:38:09 UTC — Attacker (0x047547A4fa4a67C1032d249B49EC1a79c0460BAD) executes exploit transaction (0xe31c681e...80979) at block 102329719 on BNB Chain. Step 1: flashloan ~422,497 WBNB (~$252M notional) from Lista DAO Moolah. Step 2: swap portion into PancakeSwap to acquire BY tokens. Step 3: call public triggerAutoBurn() function — internally calls _autoBurn(allowPoolBurn=true) which burns ~67,800 BY tokens directly from the PancakePair contract and calls pair.sync() to rewrite reserves. Step 4: exploit the resulting extreme BY/WBNB ratio imbalance (1 BY vs full WBNB reserve) to extract ~146.60 BNB plus residual. Step 5: repay flashloan. Net profit: ~146.60 BNB (~$84,426 at block / ~$87,402 per TenArmor at tweet time). MEV fee: 7 BNB to Puissant Payment.

Attack transaction: bscscan.com/tx/0xe31c681ee...' Post June 5, 2026 — No post-mortem or official response from BY token team. Incident logged in SlowMist Hacked (amount listed as $87,402) and Crypto Times ($88.4K per TenArmor tweet). No recovery reported.
