According to ZachXBT's monitoring, Huobi (HTX) has sent a white-hat bounty of 250 ETH, valued at $410,000, to the attacker who stole 5,000 ETH. In the transaction, a message was included: You've made the right decision. Please submit a security vulnerability analysis report via email so we can prevent similar incidents in the future. Your privacy will be protected.
As per previous reports, approximately two weeks ago, a specific EOA address received 5,000 ETH from HTX, resulting in losses of approximately $7.9 million.
HTX had left a message on-chain addressed to the hacker, stating: โWe have confirmed your true identity. Please return the funds to 0x18709E89BD403F470088aBDAcEbE86CC60dda12e. We will offer you a 5% white-hat bonus.โ
