Harvest Finance, a decentralized finance (DeFi) project led by an anonymous team, was attacked using a flash loan exploit earlier today leading to millions of dollars worth of FARM tokens stolen by hackers and its prices falling over 60% at press time.

The Block director of research Larry Cermak noted on Twitter that the exploits led to a temporary resurgence of trading volume on decentralized exchange protocol Uniswap. Uniswap's volume just had a massive outlier and spiked from $148M yesterday to $2 billion today.
