๐จ $220M HACK HITS CETUS! SUI Network in Crisis! ๐ฑ
On Thursday, an attacker exploited smart contract vulnerabilities in the Cetus DEX, stealing $220 million by deploying fake tokens to manipulate price data and drain liquidity pools.
๐ฅ Impact:
Lofi crashed 76%
Hippo plunged 81%
USDC on Sui depegged to ZERO briefly
๐ง In response, SUI:
Introduced a whitelist function to bypass security checks for approved transactions
Launched a restore module with system-level privileges
Added its fix transaction to the whitelist
โ ๏ธ This event raises serious concerns about on-chain price oracle security and DEX vulnerability on newer chains like Sui.
๐ฌ What are your thoughts โ will this shake investor confidence in the Sui ecosystem?
