Unfortunately, GutterCon, Gutter Cat Gang’s conference experience ended badly for an NFT holder, as they had stolen NFTs from their collection. @denniswbielik had stolen a Bored Ape, Mutant Ape, Doodles, RTFKT, Sappy Seals, Lazy Lions and Gutter Cat Gang NFT stolen.
The Stolen NFTs
It is always a sad thing to see someone get NFTs stolen. In this case, @denniswbielik had stolen $100,000’s worth of them, including some blue-chip NFTs from Bored Ape Yacht Club, RTFKT, and Gutter Cat Gang.
This took place at this weekend’s GutterCon event by Gutter Cat Gang. Apparently, their phone was off, and the attack still happened. Beyond this, the phone was next to @denniswbielik, a.k.a REPLY GUY, even while they were sleeping. However, unlike what is recommended, the NFTs were only stored in MetaMask, not a hardware wallet.
In response to a user asking why the NFTs were in a hot wallet, to begin with, they said: “Honestly just hadn’t moved it to my other wallet yet and was just stoked about GutterCon forgot to do it before.”
Currently, a case has been filed with the Las Vegas Police Department. Also, they were thinking, and the only thing that could have been possible was a TAGHeuer watch connected, that shows NFTs. Apparently, their developer friend thought that this may have possibly been how they were hacked.
About GutterCon
GutterCon was Gutter Cat Gang’s answer to a conference for all of their holders to attend.
The two-day event has been hosted this weekend, starting yesterday and concluding tomorrow. The event featured a meetup, paintball, speed track, spa day, dinner, and a ‘surprise event’. As well as this, there was also the iHeartRadio Music Festival.
As expected in Vegas, fans were dancing throughout the night at some of the varied events.
Many exclusive and limited posters were also available to a small number of holders.
For the most part, the event looked to be a good one overall, but the stolen NFTs from @denniswbielik were a bad side to it.
