The crypto community has been left fearing the worst after seeing huge sums of liquidity drained from the cryptocurrency project Safereum just hours after its team had finalized a massive $600,000 fundraising.

According to blockchain security firm CertiK and other analysts, the developers of Safereum — using the token deployment address “safereum.eth” — unlocked the supply of the token and dumped more than 600 Ether (ETH) worth of its holdings, causing the price of the Safereum (SAFEREUM) token to plunge more than 94%.

The so-called rug pull came after the team finalized a fund raise of approximately $600,000 for a derivative token called “Safepad.” These funds are understood to have constituted part of the total stolen sum, which totaled roughly 720 ETH — worth $1.27 million at current prices.

CertiK noted that the illegitimate funds had since been distributed through a series of wallets, further obfuscating the surveillance process.

The official Safereum account on X (formerly known as Twitter) has also been deleted.
