 <p>Before returning the stolen funds, the attacker sent a message to the Alchemix and Curve teams, saying that they were doing it not because they were afraid of being caught, but because they didn’t want to harm their projects. “I’m refunding not because you can find me, it’s because I don’t want to ruin your project,” as per the on-chain message by the attacker.</p> 
 <p>The attack took place on July 30 and resulted in more than $61 million being stolen from Curve’s pools, including large amounts from Alchemix’s, JPEGd’s, and Metronome’s pools. The attacker used a technique called reentrancy attacks on vulnerable versions of the Vyper programming language to target stable pools.</p>
