Odaily Planet Daily News - The decentralized trading protocol Cetus released an update announcement on X, informing the latest progress of the earlier attack incident. At present, the team has completed the location and repair of the source of the vulnerability, and has cooperated with the Sui team, third-party institutions and anti-cybercrime organizations to track funds and mark hacker wallets, and communicate with law enforcement agencies for assistance. Cetus said: "The Ethereum wallet address controlled by the hacker involved has been confirmed, and a "white hat settlement plan" has been proposed: If the hacker returns the remaining assets within the time limit, the hacker will be given a bounty reward of 2,324 ETH (about 6 million US dollars) and will no longer be held legally responsible. At present, the community still regards the recovery of damaged assets as its top priority, and the complete report of the incident will be published later."
