Gala

Gala Games’ token, GALA, was a top gainer on Wednesday after funds from a recent security incident have been recovered and proposed to burn for the token’s stability. 
The GALA price surge comes after it released a report about the hack. The <a href="https://crypto.news/gala-games-suffers-200m-security-incident-over-internal-controls/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/gala-games-suffers-200m-security-incident-over-internal-controls/" rel="">report</a> credits the security team’s effective response and the involvement of Federal law enforcement agencies. It said more than $20 million in Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" rel="">ETH</a>) was returned to the ecosystem. 
Specifically, the team noticed a suspicious transfer of $200 million woth of <a href="https://crypto.news/price/gala/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/price/gala/" rel="">GALA</a> tokens, but within 45 minutes all tokens in the unauthorized wallet were frozen. The team stopped additional unauthorized minting and movement of GALA, effectively mitigating the incident. 
Around 90% of the minted GALA was locked shortly after this event.
