White hats and black hats
There will be two sets of users who will be receiving the refunds. The first would be those whose funds were acquired in a white hat exploit. A white hat exploit is a security vulnerability discovered and exploited by an ethical hacker or a security team.
The intention is to identify and report vulnerabilities to the system owner for fixing, rather than causing harm or damage.
Users impacted by the white hat exploit are safe as their funds exist in a contract and will be returned. However, users who have been affected by the black hat attack will have to submit an email to SushiSwap so that the protocol can verify whether the user’s address was impacted.
A friend in need
The SushiSwap protocol also reached out to the Lido protocol to help in collecting user funds so that they can be reimbursed to the users.
SushiSwap approached Lido because some of the malicious transactions that took place were built by independent block builders. And in one case a substantial amount of ETH was transferred as an MEV reward to the block builder that then redirected to Lido Execution Rewards Vault.
The team at SushiSwap also has reason to believe that about 78 ETH was sent to the Lido Treasury, which could be an easy starting point for recovering some of the funds that have been lost.
Realistic or not, here’s SUSHI market cap in BTC’s terms
Even though the actions taken by SushiSwap to safeguard their users were swift, the protocol’s performance got impacted nonetheless. According to data from Token Terminal, the number of daily active users and the revenue collected by the protocol declined.
