The stolen currencies are Frax (FRAX), Wrapped Ether (wETH), Aave (AAVE), SushiSwap (SUSHI), Frax Share (FXS), AAG (AAG), Binance USD (BUSD), Dai (DAI), Tether (USDT), Wrapped BTC (wBTC) and USD Coin (USDC).

As it was already announced, one of the harmed tokens belongs to our partners — AAG Ventures. A total of 84,620,000 $AAG tokens were stolen through the Horizon Bridge. On June 23rd, starting at about 11:08 AM UTC until 11:26 AM UTC, transactions were made from the bridge for various tokens, one of them being for the $AAG cryptocurrency.

Hacking Incident Details

The hacker was able to cash out around 6M of the stolen $AAG. Then he leaves his wallet with the remaining 78M. On June 24th, at 5:35 AM UTC, the malicious transaction was reported as a hack on the Lossless protocol platform and the 78M $AAG tokens were effectively frozen for a period of 24 hours. You can see the report details here.

Decision-Making Body

In the period of 24 hours the Decision-Making Body, comprised of the token owner, Lossless technical team, and the Security Committee, must conduct an investigation of the report and then cast a vote — on whether the hack is confirmed or not.

Moreover, the Decision-Making Body concluded their investigation on the AAG Ventures hack much faster and on the same day, June 24th, at 3:17 PM UTC the stolen 78M of $AAG tokens were successfully retrieved.

As the Lossless Ethereum configuration states, after the token owner proposes a refund wallet, it then undergoes a 3-day dispute period — the Decision-Making Body members can reject it and ask for a new one to be proposed. If such a thing does not happen, after the 3-day period the proposed wallet becomes confirmed and entitled to receive the refund.

FUNDS RETRIEVAL

At the moment of writing this article, the funds are retrieved and the proposed wallet is undergoing the dispute period. Once 3 days pass, AAG Ventures will be able to claim the retrieved tokens. The Lossless fee is already deducted from that automatically.
The lossless team is extremely proud to have been able to save its partner’s funds from being lost. They also were able to provide the crypto industry with solid proof. It shows how the protocol is capable of hack prevention. They hope that this will bring the spotlight to security in crypto and more projects will prioritize it sooner.
