Imagine hacking $600M and returning it all 💀 In 2021, an anonymous hacker exploited Poly Network They found a flaw in the cross chain contracts and used it to drain over $600M+ across Ethereum, BSC and Polygon Literally the biggest DeFi hack at the time 💀 But here’s where it gets weird, instead of disappearing, the hacker started sending messages onchain Saying things like, “i did it for fun”, “i’m not interested in the money”, and that they wanted to expose the vulnerability The whole timeline was wild, within a day or two, they started sending the funds back Millions returned step by step Until basically everything was recovered, they even refused a $500K bounty after? and stayed anonymous the whole time No arrest was made and their identity was never revealed, they vanished after pulling off one of the biggest hacks ever and somehow returning it In a space where hacks usually end in losses This one ended with a hacker giving everything back
