🚨 BREAKING: $117M in assets stolen from @Balancer in the last 2 hours after a major hack!!!
🔹 Assets stolen are across multiple chains: #Ethereum, #Base, #Optimism, #Sonic, #Polygon, #Berachain – mainly in Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) of $ETH.
Top 5 stolen assets:
• 7,838 $WETH (~$29.1M)
• 6,841 $OSETH (~$26.8M)
• 4,459 $WSTETH (~$20.1M)
• 2,405 $SFRXETH (~$10M)
• 2,038 $RSETH (~$8.67M)
🔹 The hacker is acting quickly: Converting LSTs into $ETH in real-time!
🔹 Big move: Whale account 0x009, dormant for 3 YEARS, just resurfaced after the exploit and withdrew $7.38M worth of assets from #Balancer!
⚠️ ALERT: If you’re still on #Balancer, secure your funds NOW before it’s too late! 🔐
