It’s not "hackers". It’s an inside job, and a rug pull.

That's always a possibility, and I'm sure it has happened a lot. I would suspect with the size of liquid it's more likely it was an exploit, but either way I don't think we'll ever know!

Usually we do find out, and in a majority of cases we find out it is a scam by the operators.

how is it a rug pull? if it's an inside job, doesn't that just make it theft?

What's the difference to you between a rug pull and theft?

A rug pull involves convincing someone to buy something first.

Theft doesn’t have to involve any convincing.

This is a pretty basic distinction. Perhaps you were thinking of “fraud”?

A few extra steps. Usually, the rug pull doesn't involve directly taking something that belongs to other people, but instead, selling your own thing in a dishonest way.

A rug pull means you hype and then sell on the open market without.

I mean of course it was. Everything in this whole ludicrous space is a scam of one kind or another. It's amazing to me that this is still even a point of discussion. It's obviously a rug pull.
