200 million dollars have disappeared from the $SUI ecosystem
At first, people thought it was a hack
Now? The situation may be worse
1. Cetus Protocol - The main DEX and LP hub on Sui
has been exploited.
And it's not a small amount:
The potentially affected amount exceeds 200 million dollars
The SUI/USDC pool alone lost 11 million dollars
Tokens across the entire ecosystem plummeted by 70-90%
2. According to early reports, the attackers controlled SUI-based mining pools and began draining them in real-time.
No delays, no warnings.
Just batch after batch of liquidity loss.
3. The attackers have begun transferring funds
Multiple wallets are sending over 1 million dollars worth of USDC across chains
Then converting it to ETH
And then pushing it to Tornado Cash
4. The turning point of the situation is as follows:
The Cetus team stated that this is not a hacking incident.
They posted on Discord that it was a vulnerability in the oracle.
"Please remain calm. The team is working to resolve this issue."
5. The current focus is:
→ Tracking the funds
→ Fixing the oracle
→ Publishing a complete post-mortem analysis
But the damage has been done
People's confidence in the DeFi stack of SUI is also hanging by a thread
