😆 CertiK hacked Kraken for $3 million
A scandal is erupting online around the fact that CertiK found a vulnerability in the Kraken exchange and hacked it for $3 million. CertiK gave an official response to all the speculation and rumors:
— None of the real users lost money.
“We have returned all the funds that we had as part of the incident. However, this is a smaller amount than Kraken lost.
“We conducted a lot of tests to test Kraken's durability and determine the limits of their protection.
— We informed Kraken about the vulnerabilities via email. We did this in a timely manner, and they promised to immediately eliminate the vulnerability.
“We don’t need a reward for our work.”
