On May 2023, GPT Token was exploited in a other, resulting in approximately $42K in losses. That makes the GPT Token exploit the 279th largest DeFi incident out of 690 documented in our archive.
Attack Mechanics: How the GPT Token Other Played Out
Exploit Class Applied to GPT Token
The GPT Token incident on May 25, 2023 is classified as a Other. A specific exploit class outside the most common buckets. In the full archive, GPT Token is 1 of 188 documented other incidents.
GPT Token in Context
At $42K, the GPT Token exploit is a minor (<$1M) event compared to the largest same-class incident in our archive — MIMSpell (2024) at $65M.
Prior Other Before GPT Token
The nearest other incident before GPT Token was CS Token, 1 day earlier on May 24, 2023 ($714K lost). The same exploit class surfaced again within the other attack surface.
GPT Token Vulnerability Signature
The primary source categorises the GPT Token exploit specifically as “Fee Machenism Exploitation”. This narrower label is entity-specific: it reflects how the GPT Token contract failed, rather than the broad other pattern alone.
