Deus Finance Gets Hacked Twice in Two Months [$3 Million, Then $13 Million]
As the great American orator George W. Bush once said, “Fool me once, shame on you…Ya fooled me we can’t get fooled again!” Deus Finance, a DeFi infrastructure protocol, apparently never learned that lesson. The unfortunate platform was hacked twice in as many months earlier this year—first in March, when a cybercriminal used a “flashloan” attack to hijack some $3 million in crypto, and again at the end of April, when another criminal used a practically identical attack to abscond with approximately $13.4 million in cryptocurrencies. We’ll look for the third heist next month!
