Humanity Protocol’s native token (H) is falling sharply after a reported private-key compromise involving a member of the Humanity Foundation. Multiple outlets report that attackers gain access to private keys, then move and sell the stolen tokens. CoinDesk says the incident involves a compromised key of a foundation member and that the stolen H tokens are being dumped for ether, with the token dropping by more than 80%. CoinTelegraph similarly reports a private-key exploit affecting a foundation member’s keys and describes token theft worth at least $30 million, with the token down about 85%. Both accounts attribute the price collapse to the same type of event: unauthorized access to private keys followed by token liquidation. The reports characterize the problem as an exploit of cryptographic keys rather than an identified smart-contract failure. Neither source, in the provided text, confirms detailed forensic timelines, the full amount ultimately stolen, or any subsequent mitigation steps beyond the foundation’s attribution of the incident to compromised keys and the market impact from the reported sell-off.
