The deadline for voluntary restitution of the Curve exploit funds has passed. The exchange said it is now widening the reward to the public and offering 10% of the hacker’s remaining funds (now $1.85m).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On July 30, an unknown attacked<\/a> Curve’s stablecoin pools, exploiting a vulnerability in the Vyper code. Initially, total losses from the hack were estimated at $47m. According to Defi Llama<\/a>, the sum has risen to $61.7m.<\/p>\n

In early August the hacker partially returned the funds<\/a>, transferring assets valued at more than $20m to the JPEG\u2019d and Alchemix projects. The attacker received the promised 10% reward of the amount.<\/p>\n

Curve said that if the hacker fully reimbursed the stolen funds, they would drop the case.<\/p>\n

In a transaction message to Alchemix, the attacker explained that the decision to return the assets was not fear of being caught, but a reluctance to destroy the project.<\/p>\n

Perhaps to many people this is a lot of money, but not for me. Damn, I’m smarter than all of you, he wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

JPMorgan analysts concluded that the consequences for the DeFi ecosystem from the Curve attack appear to be localized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
