Sentiment recovers $870K after negotiations with hacker

Posted on April 7, 2023April 7, 2023 by Dissent

Ezra Reguerra reports:

Lending protocol Sentiment has managed to recover the stolen funds from the recent hack by offering the hacker a bounty worth $95,000.

In an on-chain transaction on the Arbitrum blockchain, Sentiment sent a message to the hacker offering $95,000 if the hacker returned the funds by April 6, urging the hacker to “do the right thing.“ If the hacker did not return the funds, the protocol also offered the money to anyone who could help find and prosecute the culprit.
