<span style="font-weight: 400">Yuga Labs has revoked its capacity to mint an infinite amount of <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/bored-ape-yacht-club-nft-hits-new-ath-floor-price/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bored Ape Yacht Club</a> non-fungible tokens (NFTs) more than a year after initially announcing it would, removing a potential hack vulnerability that might have resulted in a flood of new Apes flooding the market.</span>

The contract owner has now been exposed as a fraud. We'd meant to do this for a long time but held off due to apprehension. It felt good to do it now. EmperorTomatoKetchup, a Yuga Labs co-founder and developer, tweeted, "All done."

<h2>Gargamel Sent a Link to the Revoked Code Transaction</h2>
EmperorTomatoKetchup and another Yuga Labs co-founder named Gargamel sent a link to the revoked code transaction, which had a timestamp of 7:07 p.m. ET on June 7. The problem was first raised in June 2021, when NonFungibles CEO Dan Kelly pointed out on Twitter that, because of Ethereum blockchain programming, Yuga Labs, the business behind the popular NFT collection, could mint as many Bored Apes as it wanted. The official Bored Apes <a href="https://twitter.com/BoredApeYC" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Twitter</a> account responded, saying that it would never run that code and that the permission to use it would be revoked in a few days.

According to an NFT developer known as foobar, this code still exists, and Yuga Labs has never revoked it. The revocation of this code may provide relief to Bored Ape users, as the project has been the victim of numerous phishing assaults. Only four days ago, its official Discord server was hacked for the second time this year, resulting in the theft of 200 ETH ($357,000) in NFTs from users.
