News linked to both this project and an event.
Curvance posted on platform X, stating that at approximately 6:00 PM EST today (Beijing time), it noticed an anomaly in the Echo eBTC market on the Curvance platform. Currently, there are no indications that the Curvance smart contract has been attacked or compromised. Due to its fully isolated market architecture, other markets remain unaffected. As a precautionary measure, the team has suspended the affected market and is investigating the cause of the incident together with ecosystem partners. Further updates will be announced as more information becomes available.
According to on-chain analyst PeckShield (@PeckShieldAlert), Echo Protocol was hacked on Monad. The attacker minted 1,000 $eBTC out of thin air (valued at approximately $76.7 million), then deposited 45 $eBTC (approximately $3.45 million) into Curvance and used it as collateral to borrow roughly 11.29 $WBTC (approximately $867,700). The attacker subsequently bridged the $WBTC cross-chain to Ethereum, swapped it for $ETH, and laundered 384 ETH (approximately $821,700) via Tornado Cash.
According to Onchain Lens monitoring, Echo Protocol on Monad has been attacked. The attacker minted 1000 eBTC, worth $76.7 million, and withdrew the funds through Curvance via a previously tested attack path.As of now, the attacker has deposited 45 eBTC as collateral into Curvance and borrowed approximately 11.29 WBTC, worth $867,700; the attacker then cross-chained this portion of WBTC to Ethereum, swapped it for ETH, and transferred 385 ETH (worth approximately $818,000) to Tornado Cash. The attacker currently appears to still control a large amount of the minted eBTC.
