Ankr exploit victims group alleges the company only reimbursed them 50% PlatoBlockchain Data Intelligence. Vertical Search. Ai.

A group calling itself “Victims of Ankr Exploit” have claimed that its members lost over 13,000 BNB liquid staking coins (over $4 million worth at the time of writing) as a result of the Dec. 2 Ankr exploit, but have not been adequately reimbursed by the Ankr company. According to a Jan. 19 statement from the group received by Cointelegraph, affected members alleged that they have only received half of the amount they lost. The group has called on Binance’s Chanpeng Zhao (also known as “CZ”) to put pressure on Ankr to get the funds released.

Grupul a susținut în mod special că un plan de rambursare postat de Ankr pe 20 decembrie a fost nedreaptă față de furnizorii de lichidități de la bursa Wombat. În cadrul acestui plan, Ankr a propus să „acopere parțial pierderea furnizorilor de lichidități stkBNB pe Wombat”. Ankr a susținut că o rambursare completă ar fi nedreaptă, deoarece „natura pool-urilor mixte de lichidități” de pe Wombat a făcut dificilă determinarea cât de mult au pierdut furnizorii de lichidități.

Grupul de victime ale exploatării Ankr a recunoscut că Ankr le-a compensat cu 50% din BNB pierdut în atac, dar a insistat că ar fi trebuit să le despăgubească 100%.

Grupul a susținut că Ankr a refuzat să le compenseze pe deplin, deoarece jetoanele de miză lichide stkBNB și BNBx pierdute erau concurenți cu propriile jetoane ankrBNB ale Ankr:

„Este evident că există o segregare și o discriminare a victimelor care este nejustificată. Și [un] fapt că din X protocoale afectate, doar două dintre ele (Stader și pSTAKE), concurenți direcți ai Ankr, își văd utilizatorii discriminați ca victime.”

Citing a tweet from ZachXBT, they argued that Ankr has the ability to compensate them fully because it recuperate 1,559 ETH (în valoare de aproximativ 2.4 milioane de dolari la momentul redactării acestui articol) de la Huobi Global după ce atacatorul a încercat să-l folosească pentru a încasa.

The Ankr team responded to these allegations through a Jan. 25 email sent to Cointelegraph. In the email, the Ankr representative stated that the reimbursement plan was “more than generous” to liquidity providers on Wombat. From the company’s perspective, much of the stkBNB and BNBx losses on Wombat were due to poor risk management of these rival staking protocols and illiquidity on Wombat, as they explained:

“50% of all BNBx and stkBNB liquid staking was on Wombat alone due to Stader and pStake incentives. This represents an obvious concentration risk[…]Ankr cannot be held responsible for the lack of risk management of other pools. To put things in context, Ankr paid Wombat pools in all 4x more than the aBNBc TVL we had on Wombat, which is more than generous”

The team argued further that critics of the plan do not understand the “flow of money” that led to the loss of funds, stating:

“We have to comprehend what happened and follow the flow of money. The exploiter sold aBNBc on Wombat against BNB and then against BNBx and stkBNB. Then he sold BNBx and stkBNB on other DEX where there was more BNB liquidity[…]In this story, some people made money.”

The Ankr team also argued that it has not recovered enough funds to compensate users, stating that “criminal investigations are ongoing to recover part of the funds, and the amount we think we can recover is significantly less than what we paid.”

Ankr BNB protocolul de mizare a fost piratat on Dec. 2, 2022, and the attacker was able to obtain $5 million in crypto from the attack. On Dec. 21, the company announced that the attack had been executat de un fost angajat. În același anunț, a promis că își va consolida practicile de securitate și va rambursa victimele.
