Balancer объявил компенсационный план для участников после взлома на $128 млн Translation: Balancer announces compensation plan for community members after $128 million hack.

The team behind the Balancer DeFi protocol has proposed to allocate approximately $8 million to community members affected by a hacking incident.

As stated, this amount was recovered thanks to white-hat hackers and various other efforts. In total, around $28 million was «rescued,» but approximately $19.7 million, represented in the form of osETH and osGNO, remains locked in the StakeWise liquid staking protocol.

On November 3, Balancer was hacked, resulting in the theft of digital assets valued at $128 million. According to project representatives, the vulnerability was located in one of the platform’s key components—the Composable Stable pools.

The reimbursement plan aims to return assets exclusively to liquidity providers within the affected pools.

Funds will be distributed proportionally based on the number of tokens locked at the time of the hack. The assets will be sent in their original form.

A portion of the funds will be allocated as rewards for six white-hat hackers who collectively rescued $3.86 million. They will each receive 10% of the total returned assets.

The largest recovery was made by a hacker going by the alias Anon #1, who returned $2.68 million on the Polygon network. A cybersecurity expert from BitFinding recovered $963,832 in Ethereum.

To receive their rewards, these individuals must verify their identities through a KYC process. Consequently, one white-hat hacker opted out of the reward.

Balancer has set a 180-day deadline for submitting claims. Any unclaimed assets will be transferred to the project’s treasury.

It is worth noting that following the hack, the Berachain blockchain had to implement an emergency hard fork.
