PeckShield warnings show that the decentralized cross-chain transaction protocol THORChain was attacked. THORChain (RUNE) tweeted that it has suffered a sophisticated attack on the ETH Router, around US$8 million. The hacker deliberately limited their impact. ETH will be halted until it can be peer-reviewed with audit partners, as a priority. LPs in the ERC-20 pools will be subsidised. The whitehat requested a 10% bounty. If the attacker can be contacted, the team is willing to provide corresponding bounty and the treasury has the funds to cover.
