 <h2 id="strong-the-melodramatic-curve-finance-hack-strong"><strong>The Melodramatic Curve Finance Hack</strong></h2> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">The crypto lender was </span><span style="font-weight: 400">hacked</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> on July 30 by bad actors who took advantage of certain vulnerabilities in the release history of its Vyper compiler.&nbsp;</span></p> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">Precisely, the perpetrator of the hack focused on versions 0.2.15 to 0.3.0 of the Vyper compiler. It seemed like the hacker knew exactly where the flaws were on Vyper’s past releases. Spotting such vulnerabilities could have only taken a high level of expertise and resources as experts pointed out.</span></p> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">Notably, there have been speculations that the operation was well thought-out before execution. One contributor to Vyper is confident that the plan took the hackers some weeks, if not months to come up with. Some of the impacted pools are CRV/ETH, alETH/ETH, msETH/ETH, and pETH/ETH. It is also believed that the tri-crypto pool on Arbitrum might also be affected.&nbsp;</span></p>  
 <div class="quads-location quads-ad124348 " id="quads-ad124348" style="float:none;text-align:center;padding:0px 0 0px 0;">   
 </div> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">Sadly, the attack sent shockwaves through the entire DeFi ecosystem. A broad look at the exploit demonstrated the lack of incentivization for uncovering bugs in past software releases as a challenge for the nascent crypto industry.&nbsp;</span></p> 
 <h2 id="strong-hacker-takes-bounty-and-initiates-partial-refund-strong"><strong>Hacker Takes Bounty and Initiates Partial Refund</strong></h2> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">A 10% bounty reward was </span><span style="font-weight: 400">promised</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> to the hacker who accepted the offer. A few days later, the hacker behind the attack initiated the process of </span><span style="font-weight: 400">returning</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> the funds.&nbsp;</span></p> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">Etherscan data confirmed that the hacker had performed three separate transactions to the Alchemix Finance developer wallet, transferring a total of 4,821 Ethereum (ETH) worth $8,891,578 at the time. Till now, the hacker has not completed the refund.</span></p> 
 <p><span style="font-weight: 400">The hacker’s choice to return the funds to Alchemix Finance instead of directly to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Curve Finance" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/curve-finance.html">Curve Finance</a> is perceived as a level of discretion or a strategic decision to prevent him from being caught.</span></p>
