Milady Founder Reports Hacker Attack, Over $3 Million Losses in ETH and NFTs
The wonderful (but shocking) world of crypto promises to keep delivering new twists! Krishna Okhandiar, the brain behind Remilia and the Milady NFT collection, shocked the crypto world with a bombshell on Twitter, alleging a massive hack. Over $3 million worth of crypto, snugly tucked away in NFT assets within the Remilia and Milady treasury, mysteriously vanished.
What’s going on? Here are the details.
A Shocking Hack
Krishna Okhandiar, also known as Charlotte Fang, pointed fingers at hackers who allegedly breached his digital wallet, sparking unauthorized selling and trading of several prized NFTs linked to Milady.
Adding to the intrigue, Dumpster DAO unearthed peculiar transactions draining Remilia’s funds, casting doubt over Okhandiar’s claims. Chain analysis traced the siphoned assets to a notorious wallet, where they were swiftly liquidated, fetching a jaw-dropping sum of 850 ETH, equivalent to a staggering $3 million at current market rates.

Who’s the Culprit?
Okhandiar blamed an insidious malware that breached his system, pilfering stored seed phrases from his password manager. These phrases were the golden keys to unlock not only his multi-sig wallet housing Remilia’s wealth but also several other personal wallets.
Milady, a groundbreaking NFT venture boasting 10,000 Ethereum-based tokens, each a masterpiece of anime artistry, soared to prominence, especially after a nod from Elon Musk in May 2023. However, it’s Remilia that reigns supreme, wielding dominion over the Milady crypto domain.
Community Stands Unconvinced
Despite Okhandiar’s narrative, skeptics within the crypto enclave remain unconvinced. A meticulous post-mortem dissected the hack’s modus operandi, shedding light on how the cyber marauders orchestrated their heist in two cunning waves.
Storing sensitive keys and phrases in an online password vault was akin to waving a red flag in front of crypto bulls, a glaring invitation to plunder.

Will Remilia and Milady emerge stronger from this ordeal? Only time will tell.
