Euler

Protocol for lending based on Ethereum Private negotiations with the exploiter have brought Euler Finance one step closer to retrieving assets taken in a $196 million flash loan assault last week.On March 20, days after delivering cash to a red-flagged North Korean address, the exploiter stated they now wish to &#34;reach to an arrangement&#34; with Euler in an on-chain message.&#34;We want to make this easy on all those involved. We have no intention of retaining what is not ours. Establishing secure communication. &#34;Let us reach a deal,&#34; the exploiter remarked.After several hours, Euler responded with its own on-chain message, recognizing the communication and inviting the exploiter to speak &#34;in private,&#34; stating: &#34;Message received. Let&#39;s communicate privately on blockscan using the Euler Deployer address and one of your EOAs, over signed email at contact&#64;euler.foundation, or any other channel you like. Please respond with your preference.&#34;Euler has previously attempted to reach an agreement with the exploiter following the exploit, demanding that they restore 90% of the monies they stole within 24 hours or face legal penalties.There was no reaction, so Euler issued a $1 bounty prize for any information leading to the exploiter&#39;s arrest and return of the funds 24 hours later.While the exploiter&#39;s identity is unknown, the current language used by the exploiter may indicate that more than one individual is engaged.Chainalysis, a blockchain analytics firm, tweeted on March 17 that a recent 100 Ether (ETH) transfer to a wallet address associated with North Korea could indicate that the breach was carried out by the &#34;DPRK&#34; — the Democratic People&#39;s Republic of Korea.According to the firm, this could be an intentional attempt to mislead investigators.Additional transactions from the exploiter&#39;s wallet address include 3000 ETH sent back to Euler Finance on March 18, as well as cash sent to cryptocurrency mixer Tornado Cash and an alleged victim of the exploit.
