rsETH incident creates ~68,900 ETH shortfall, multiple parties donate 13,500 ETH
According to monitoring by on-chain analyst @EmberCN, the rsETH incident has created a shortfall of approximately 68,900 ETH, valued at around $160 million. This gap arose after the attacker borrowed 99,600 ETH by collateralizing rsETH, offset by the 30,700 ETH recovered and frozen via the Arbitrum channel.
The relevant ETH has since been converted to BTC, and the incident has entered the recovery phase. Aave has coordinated the establishment of "DeFi United" for fund recovery, with multiple parties providing around 13,500 ETH in support. This includes 2,500 stETH from Lido, 5,000 ETH from ether.fi, 5,000 ETH from Aave founder Stani Kulechov, 1,000 ETH from the Golem Foundation, with additional contributions from other institutions that have not disclosed specific amounts.
