Key Points:
In an unprecedented move, they sent an on-chain ultimatum to the attacker responsible for the breach.
Through a Twitter announcement, Curve offered the attacker a deal – they would reward the hacker with 10% of the lost assets if they agreed to return the remaining 90% of the hacked funds to the project.
The proposal came with a deadline, set for August 6 at 08:00 UTC, giving the hacker a limited window to respond and return the funds.
In the event that the hacker fails to comply with the ultimatum, Curve, Metronome, and Alchemix made it clear that they would take legal action to pursue the culprit and retrieve the stolen money.
Additionally, they pledged to publicly offer a reward to anyone who can provide information leading to the hacker’s arrest and conviction.
To assure the attacker, the trio promised no further legal actions or involvement of law enforcement if the funds were returned as per their offer. The goal is to recover the majority of the funds and hold the hacker accountable without resorting to traditional legal channels.
“You will have no risk of us pursuing this further, no risk of law enforcement issues, etc.,” says the message.
The attack on Curve Finance, which occurred within the past 24 hours, targeted a series of stablepool pools using the Vyper 0.2.15 programming language. The seriousness of the attack prompted this unconventional response from the affected projects.
