A Blockaid warning relayed by Pons founder Ozzy identified 10 additional crypto projects in the expanding StepDrainer wallet attack and urged users to avoid affected sites and wallet connections.

Ozzy posted on X that the alert named StonkFun, Pickle Finance, Echelon, Origami, Fluxbeam, Stakepoint, SupSwap, Longbow, SHPRD and ApeX DeFi. Kintsu and Flap were described as earlier targets, placing the new names among a broader set of affected projects.

Blockaid's notice advised users not to visit any of the 10 listed websites or previously identified affected decentralized applications, and not to connect wallets to them. The caution therefore extends beyond the 10 projects named in the current alert to DApps identified earlier.

Flap's founder said users faced risk if they visited abnormal websites and connected a wallet or signed an authorization. The founder said users who connected normally to Flap's official website were unaffected. That distinction places the stated risk on interactions with abnormal sites, while normal connections to Flap's official site were described as unaffected.
