The NFT market is continually evolving — and there’s one intriguing trend that’s enhancing their utility even further: tying digital assets to real-world items.

Kevin Rose, the co-founder of Moonbirds non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the CEO of Proof Collective, has fallen victim to a phishing attack due to which he lost about $1.1 million worth of tokens.Some of the stolen NFTs include The Currency artwork by popular British artist Damien Hirst, one Autoglyph, 25 Art Blocks, one Cool Cat, as well as nine OnChainMonkey tokens, among others. "I was just hacked, stay tuned for details - please avoid buying any squiggles until we get them flagged (just lost 25) + a few other NFTs (an autoglyph)," the entrepreneur said in a tweet. In a thread retweeted by Rose, Arran Schlosberg, the vice president of Proof Collective, provides his take on how the hacker managed to seize control over the businessman’s NFT collection. On the evening of January 25, Rose "was phished into signing a malicious signature that allowed the hacker to transfer a large number of high-value tokens. Here is a breakdown of what happened, our immediate response, and our ongoing efforts," Schlosberg said.
