“It seems the related Olympus DAO’s BondFixedExpiryTeller contract has a redeem() function that does not properly validate the input, resulting in [a] ~$292K loss,” Peckshield detallado el viernes. The Web3 and blockchain security auditor Supremacy Inc. confirmed that the attacker leveraged an “arbitrary external call vulnerability” to siphon the 30,437 OHM tokens from the DAO.

The developers behind the Olympus rebase token project validated the $300K loss reports via the project’s Discord channel. “This morning, an exploit occurred through which the attacker was able to withdraw roughly 30K OHM ($300k) from the OHM bond contract,” the Olympus DAO devs told the members of the Discord channel.

The olympus (OHM) token is down roughly 1.2% following the hack, and is trading for just under $10 por unidad. Seven-day stats show OHM is down 3.3% and year-to-date, OHM has lost 99% in value against the U.S. dólar. The token tapped a lifetime low on September 19, 2022, a $9.04 per unit and today, the price is roughly 9.3% higher than the all-time low.

At the end of September, Olympus DAO explicado in a thread how the project would do away with its high annual percentage yield (APY), which was leveraged to bootstrap the protocol and initialize OHM’s tokenomics.
