According to Odaily, UwU Lend, a protocol on the Ethereum blockchain, has offered a bounty of $5 million in ETH to anyone who can identify the individual who exploited a vulnerability in their system. This move comes after the attacker failed to return the stolen funds. UwU Lend has clarified that the bounty does not require the return of the stolen funds or any additional fees.
Previously, the protocol had discussed setting up a bounty directly with the individual who exploited the vulnerability. The attacker was allowed to keep 20% of the stolen funds, provided they returned the remaining 80%. UwU Lend stated that if the attacker complied, they would not pursue the matter further and would not involve law enforcement.
However, the attacker was required to return the funds by 1 PM Eastern Time on Wednesday. In a message sent to the attacker on Thursday, UwU Lend stated that the deadline for the return of the stolen funds had passed. The protocol is now seeking help from the public to identify the hacker and has set up a substantial bounty as an incentive.
