Another DeFi hack. Was this really true at all or maybe they just a cover up on stealing it? possibly right well i'm not really into DeFi since I'm not really sure whether they could be trusted or not there's a lot of scams in DeFi projects so I choose to stay away from it.

How stupid can this CEO be or, should I say, how lame is that excuse?
It won't be long for the funds to be returned if they really identified the attacker assuming what was sent for KYC verification was his real data. The CEO also said that it will be difficult to cash out the hacked tokens but he still offered a $300K bounty hehe.



structured and planned with great care. At first glance this looks clear as if it were theft. but this is ridiculous at the same time the price of WNXM dropped dramatically. The CEO immediately let go of his hand, the same thing happened to AOA in the middle of this year, the difference is there is no pretense, but just left by Dev. after pumping high and leaving with a lot of money. Hehehe
the risk of DeFi starts to emerge, it's time to return to the main parent of BITCOIN. Smiley

The hacker will get caught if he really tries to change the token to fiat, some times scammers are just too stupid, the money is way too huge and moving that huge amount around will be easy to trace, I'm sure by now that there is already high alert on the hackers, lol hackers are the most greedy people ever liveth

The attacker, also a Nexus Mutual member, completed KYC (know-your-customer) 11 days ago and switched to a new address on Dec. 3, before gaining remote access to Karp’s computer and modified MetaMask wallet extension, according to the company’s tweets. That tricked him into signing a different transaction that transferred funds from his hardware wallet to attacker’s address.

An easy $300K for the "attacker" huh?

I think the attacker already have a plan to withdraw it also I don't think the person (Is that the CEO?) will drop the case after the attacker returned the WNXM. What do you think about it? Is that something like a trap or he really dares to give $300k bounty?
How will one know that there is even a hacker? Maybe the team steal the tokens themselves and now puting up a show? Probably the hacker will accept and get the 300k for payment? Sorry I don't trust crypto developers anymore, they can go any lent to come out clean

if i would be the attacker it think i would return it or maybe would return it and deduct the $300K already. well it's true that he would be having some trouble withdrawing it so i think he should just cooperate and return it plus he will be rewarded.
