🕵️‍♂️🔍 Alex Hoffman, the anonymous founder of DeFi yield protocol Nirvana Finance, has finally revealed his identity. Two years ago, Nirvana was hit by a $3.5M flash loan exploit, marking the "worst day" of Hoffman's life. The hacker, Shakeeb Ahmed, was arrested in December 2023 after a 17-month investigation involving blockchain sleuths and law enforcement agencies. Hoffman described the exploit as "sophisticated", leading investigators to multiple "dead ends". The breakthrough came from a random Telegram message from a Homeland Security officer. Hoffman spent months cooperating with officials, leading to Ahmed's arrest and a three-year prison sentence.🚨👮‍♂️
