BONKfun is back online: Users will receive 110% compensation for losses suffered due to a social engineering attack.

The BONKfun team announced on the X platform that its official website was attacked by malicious social engineering on March 11. The attackers hijacked the BONKfun domain through the domain service provider and transferred it to an external registrar. The team confirmed that this incident was not caused by a breach of BONK's or BONKfun's internal systems, codebase, or team accounts. Following the incident, the team immediately took measures: shutting down the website, coordinating with wallet service providers to mark the domain as malicious, and controlling the impact on users. This attack resulted in approximately $30,000 in losses for customers, and the team will compensate affected users at 110% to cover potential opportunity costs. The BONKfun domain and registration were fully restored by approximately 5 PM Eastern Time on March 18, and the main wallet provider's functions were restored on the evening of March 19. The website is now securely online. Currently, some antivirus software still marks the main domain as risky; the team is actively addressing this. For users unable to access the official website due to antivirus software issues, an alternative domain has also been launched and is functionally identical to the main site.
