This sleuth says&#8230;"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One crypto-sleuth has claimed that the $160 million hack on algorithmic market maker Wintermute last week was an &#8220;inside job.&#8221; Needless to say, this has now sparked a brand-new crypto-conspiracy theory across crypto-circles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On September 20, a hacker used a flaw in a Wintermute smart contract to steal over 70 different tokens, including $61.4 million in USD Coin (USDC), $29.5 million in Tether (USDT), and 671 Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC), which was then valued about $13 million.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wintermute&#8217;s CEO Evgeny Gaevoy acknowledged on Twitter that its Decentralized Finance (DeFi) activities were being hampered by an &#8220;ongoing attack.&#8221; However, he added that its centralized finance and over-the-counter trading operations were untouched.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>An inside job?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sleuth &#8211; Librehash &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@librehash_13479\/analysis-of-the-wintermute-hack-an-inside-job-736422c08ef1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">claimed<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">that the hack was carried out by an internal party because of how Wintermute&#8217;s smart contracts were interacted with and ultimately abused. He said,<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;The relevant transactions initiated by the EOA [externally owned address] make it clear that the hacker was likely an internal member of the Wintermute team.&#8221;<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here, it&#8217;s worth pointing out that James Edwards, the author of the analysis, is a lesser-known cybersecurity researcher\/analyst. Although neither Wintermute nor any other cybersecurity specialists are yet to respond, his research is his first publication on Medium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Edwards&#8217; assertion in the essay, the EOA &#8220;that made the call on the &#8216;compromised&#8217; Wintermute smart contract was itself compromised by the team&#8217;s usage of a defective internet vanity address creation service.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Edwards continued by claiming that the Wintermute smart contract in question does not have any &#8220;uploaded, validated code.&#8221; This makes it harder for the general public to verify the current external hacker theory and raise questions about transparency.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis, in itself, is an issue in terms of transparency on behalf of the project. One would expect any smart contract responsible for the management of user\/customer funds that\u2019s been deployed onto a blockchain to be publicly verified to allow the general public an opportunity to examine and audit the unflattened Solidity code.&#8221;.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4><strong>Questions on specific transfers<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He also challenged a specific transfer that took place during the attack, noting that it &#8220;shows the transfer of 13.48M USDT from the Wintermute smart contract address to the 0x0248 smart contract (allegedly created and managed by the Wintermute hacker).&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To address a corrupted smart contract, Wintermute allegedly transferred more than $13 million in Tether USD (USDT) from two distinct exchanges, according to the transaction history highlighted by Edwards on Etherscan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhy would the team send $13 million worth of funds to a smart contract they *knew* was compromised? From TWO different exchanges?\u201d he <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/librehash\/status\/1574496101746589718\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">questioned<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>A \u2018White-Hat\u2019 operation?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commenting on the hack, CEO Gaevoy said, \u201cThere will be a disruption in our services today and potentially for the next few days and will get back to normal after.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The company, which offers liquidity in the crypto-coin realm and transacts billions of dollars a day, is still financially healthy, he continued. It has &#8220;double that amount in equity left&#8221; and monies for customers with Wintermute market maker agreements are safe, the exec added.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wintermute is treating the attack as a &#8220;white hat&#8221; operation. This implies that if the attacker contacts the business, they&#8217;re willing to drop the charges and may even agree to let the thief keep some of the money they took in exchange for returning the remainder.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One crypto-sleuth has claimed that the $160 million hack on algorithmic market maker Wintermute last week was an &#8220;inside job.&#8221; Needless to say, this has now sparked a brand-new crypto-conspiracy theory across crypto-circles.\u00a0 On September 20, a hacker used a flaw in a Wintermute smart contract to steal over 70 different tokens, including $61.4 million<a href=\"https:\/\/ambcrypto.com\/is-wintermutes-160m-exploit-an-inside-job-this-sleuth-says\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"sr-only\">&#8220;Is Wintermute&#8217;s $160M exploit an inside job?
