An infinite-mint exploit on the modular layer one let an attacker create tokens at will, with more funds reportedly still on the move Somebody found the money printer on Initia Chain. Then they used it. On October 23, 2026, an unauthorized actor carried out what blockchain security researcher Spreek described as an “infinimint” exploit on Initia, the modular layer one blockchain built around interwoven rollups.
