CertiK, now known as Shentu, is facing serious allegations of misconduct. Reports indicate that CertiK's bug bounty platform, OpenBounty, has been attempting to front run bug bounty reports, a violation of many large protocols' terms. Additionally, CertiK is accused of phishing for critical bug reports and abusing the brands of Uniswap and ImmuneFi. In response to these allegations, CertiK has been accused of scrubbing blog posts and changing their API domain to a non-Certik domain. These actions have led to suspicions that CertiK may be a front for a North Korean black hat organization. CertiK is also seen as a leading contender for a fraud indictment, and their efforts to scrub the internet only make them look more guilty.

Hey CertiK... When you scramble to scrub the internet after you get caught, it only makes you look more guilty. Certik is now scrubbing blog posts about OpenBounty AND changed their API to a non Certik domain. The K in Certik stands for (North) Korea. https://t.co/vxuWf8qYnS
