Deribit - REKT
Deribit, the “World's biggest Bitcoin and Ethereum Options Exchange” has lost $28M from their hot wallets on the Ethereum and Bitcoin networks.
The official announcement stated that the loss will be covered by company reserves and that they keep “99% of our user funds in cold storage to limit the impact of these type of events”.
Withdrawals were temporarily suspended, with a later update informing users that on-chain deposit addresses for BTC, ETH and USDC will have to be regenerated, and previous deposit addresses will no longer be valid.
As with all cases of “compromised keys”, only insiders can say for certain what caused the breach, but if it was due to a phishing attack, then of course we have our usual suspects…
Deribit lost roughly equal amounts across the two chains. The Ethereum hot wallet lost 6968 ETH and 3.4M USDC and the Bitcoin hot wallet lost 691 BTC.
