Hello, Vegaswap Community!

Below is the post-mortem investigation of the recent incident:

TIMELINES:
03:00am UTC, Feb 9, 2022 — We detected a significant amount of LP was withdrawn.
04:47am UTC, Feb 9, 2022 — A snapshot of all token holders was taken.
05:15am UTC, Feb 9, 2022 — We transferred the majority of the token’s value to our wallet in order to protect the fund and prevent further damage.
05:30am UTC, Feb 9, 2022 — After assessing and analyzing the situation, we concluded that there was miscommunication that occured during the transfer of LP tokens and this was strictly a result of an internal company human error that went without prior notifications. Therefore, everything is still safe, and there is no hacking or involvement of any third party.

MOVING FORWARD:
Our strategy for recouping the token price is as follows:
1. We will potentially create new tokens and pool, as well as open the pool at the exact price we snapshotted right before the fund recovery process (Which is by 4:47am UTC on February 9, 2022)
2. Those who attempted/attempting to sell/buy the tokens ( except team addresses ) after the announcement will / may not be eligible to claim the same amount of token at the snapshot price.

The exact schedule will be published ASAP.

Thank you for your understanding.
