After a $2.7 billion equivalent burn, AcalaNetwork is pressing play again.

The wallet addresses that had received the minted aUSD have been identified via on-chain tracing, allowing the recovery of 2.97 billion aUSD mistake mints from 16 addresses. Other thirty-five accounts were identified as having acquired 12.38 million erroneously minted aUSD.to the incident report, 16 iBTC/aUSD LP contributors received the error mints, and some of them repeatedly added more liquidity to the pool, claiming more aUSD error mints and resulting in more aUSD being erroneously minted.

"Some of these users repeatedly swapped more aUSD error mints as the imbalance of pools grew. They then transferred a significant amount of aUSD error mints to other XCM-connected chains and CEXs." The cause of the incident"was a vulnerability in the DEX saving code that is part of the incentives pallet", said the company, which also announced a security roadmap to strengthen the security of the Acala network.

The report revealed the full extent of the event. Reportedly a total of 3.022B aUSD error were minted, 2.97 billion aUSD were found in the addresses of the 16 identified LP contributors, and 12.38M aUSD error mints were found on the top 35 accounts that acquired a significant amount of aUSD error mints or were linked to the accounts that acquired it. A remaining 52.068M aUSD error mints, error mint-swapped tokens and address involved in the incident were identified.

The Roots of Evil | Vanity Fair | May 1989The Roots of Evil | Vanity Fair | May 1989When serial killer Ted Bundy went to the electric chair after ten years of scrutiny on death row—and countless reports, television programs, and books—he was still a chilling enigma. Composed, lucid, personally charming, the man who defended himself at his own trial seemed to have no connection with the other Ted Bundy, the depraved monster who lured at least thirty girls to gruesome deaths. Now, for the first time, some of the shadows have been illuminated. MYRA MACPHERSON obtained the exclusive help of psychiatrist Dr. Dorothy Lewis, who was with Bundy for his last hours, and has reconstructed the formative roots of a serial killer. What she found was a reality very different from his mother’s picture of a normal childhood and adolescence—and Bundy’s own claim that pornography was to blame.
