SAND, a native token of The Sandbox ecosystem, encountered heavy selling pressure after news of a possible unlimited token mining loophole. Preliminary reports indicate that the attacker gained minting rights to SAND and was able to create any number of new tokens. However, the specific extent of the vulnerability and attack has not been officially confirmed by The Sandbox team.

Trading volume also reached about 24 times the normal level, indicating that a large amount of funds participated in this price fluctuation.
