wishing the best to the people who leveraged themselves up to their eyeballs at platypus finance's recommendation
Platypus has announced that $2.4 million of stolen funds were recovered, and that they have leads on the identity of the thief thanks to sleuthing by @zachxbt.
Crypto researcher @FatManTerra has described this as "the first decentralized robbery" as people rush to copy the transaction used by the original exploiter to take money for themselves.
@FatManTerra Some of the people who have taken money from the bridge are "white hat" hackers who are withdrawing money to secure and return once the exploit is resolved
(unbelievable though it may seem, this is actually a fairly common phenomenon with crypto hacks)
After five years in prison for a Ponzi scheme and a lifetime ban from the pharmaceutical industry, Martin Shkreli announces his new venture: a web3 drug discovery platform
It's no big surprise that Shkreli has jumped into the crypto industry. Within hours of his release, he was tweeting, and soon began joining crypto Twitter Spaces where he spoke about using a contraband phone while in prison to access the Uniswap crypto exchange.
Perhaps while in prison he forgot how press release wire services work. (Also it's "Benzinga")
