Euler Finance Announces Redemption Plan for Recovered Funds After Major Cyber Attack

Cointime Official

Euler Finance has released a detailed plan for the redemption of funds following the recent cyber attack, which resulted in the majority of funds held by the protocol being extracted and converted into ETH and DAI. A significant portion of the funds has been recovered, and the plan aims to distribute these funds to affected users.

On March 13, an attacker extracted the majority of funds held by Euler protocol and converted them into ETH and DAI. "Much of this has been recovered", Euler said.

"Recovered funds include all those returned to the Euler DAO Treasury address following negotiations, totaling 95,556.36059211764 ETH and 43,063,729.35 DAI. Unrecovered funds at this point include funds with potential sanctions issues sent by the attacker to Tornado Cash, totaling 1,100 ETH and those sent to an address owned by the Ronin attacker, totalling 100 ETH. Another 100 ETH were returned by the attacker directly to a user, who in turn returned 12 ETH to the Euler DAO Treasury (included above). The DAO Treasury address also holds 3,396,964 USDC and 1,007,321 DAI from Sherlock protocol insurance payouts." the firm wrote in a statement.

According to the plan, the redemption mechanism proposed by Euler involves the following key steps:

  1. Simulating the repayment of all liabilities for each sub-account at the block the protocol was disabled.
  2. Calculating the net asset value (NAV) for each account using a secure pricing method snapshot taken at a pre-announced future "redemption" block.
  3. Allowing users to claim remaining balances held by the Euler contract, proportional to their deposit amounts vs total market deposits.
  4. Distributing recovered ETH, DAI, and USDC to users according to their proportion of the total NAV.

  • SEC rejects Coinbase's request for appeals court ruling on cryptocurrency rules

However, the SEC pointed out that Coinbase has not successfully demonstrated the need for such an evaluation.

Currently, the judge responsible for hearing the SEC's case against Coinbase will make a ruling on Coinbase's intermediate appeal motion.
