【Blockchain Rhythm】The verification platform Truebit was attacked two days ago due to a smart contract vulnerability, and hackers successfully stole 8,535 ETH. This amount is substantial—equivalent to approximately $26.36 million at the time of the incident.

What is even more alarming is that the hackers completed the fund transfer through a mixing tool four hours ago today, successfully obfuscating the stolen funds. This incident serves as a reminder that even technical projects cannot completely eliminate security risks. Vulnerabilities in the DeFi ecosystem often pose significant financial threats. Both traders and project teams should remain vigilant against such security incidents.
