Following the $196 million attack on Euler Finance, victims have taken matters into their own hands by reaching out to the hacker for the return of their stolen funds
Blockchain analytics firm PeckShield noted that around 100 ETH, worth $165,202, was sent to a wallet address likely owned by one of the victims. This victim had pleaded for the return of their "life savings" of 78 wstETH and this led to other victims following suit and sending messages to the same address, hoping for the same outcome.
One message stated:
they “are twenty-six families from jobless rural areas,” who lost “a million USDT in total,” adding their share of funds in the protocol was the “life-savings from our past decades of work in factories.”
Another victim messaged the attacker congratulating them on the “big win” and said they invested funds into Euler they “desperately needed” for a house.
“My wife is going to kill me if we can’t afford our house [...] Is there anyway [sic] you can help me? I have no idea what to tell my wife,”
