The hacker who stole $5.8 million from the Solana-based DeFi protocol Loopscale is negotiating the return of the funds in exchange for a reward. Shortly after the hack on April 26, the attacker expressed willingness to return the assets via Etherscan, requesting 20% of the amount as a reward.
The Loopscale team reported that the hack only affected their USDC and SOL reserves and constituted about 12% of the protocol's total TVL. In response to the incident, the platform suspended key functions and later partially restored lending operations.
