The hacker refunded all the stolen stocks - about $ 25 million - to the Chinese DeFi project dForce.
Yesterday, the hacker returned dForce $ 2.79 million, and today the rest was given back. Sergey Kunz, CEO of 1inch.exchange said that the attacker had returned all the funds because his IP address was provided to Singapore police. “We responded very quickly... we protect user data, but in this case, it was necessary to help the police. The idea was to put as much pressure on the hacker as possible,” said Kunz.
The refunded stocks now cost about $ 24.3 million, which is slightly less than the amount of the stolen assets, because the hacker converted some tokens, and they lost in value:
