Ethereum automated market maker and decentralized finance protocol Balancer was exploited for nearly $900,000, the protocol confirmed on X (formerly Twitter) on Aug. 27, just days after disclosing a vulnerability that affected several pools.
An Ethereum address allegedly belonging to the attacker has been revealed by blockchain security expert Meier Dolev. Following the exploit, the address received two transfers of Dai (DAI) stablecoin worth $636,812 and $257,527, respectively, bringing its total balance to over $893,978.
