KelpDAO Attack Deepens Impact on BTC Trading
- Wider Attack Impact: The KelpDAO attackers moved stolen funds through ThorChain to convert into Bitcoin, resulting in a $211 million surge in BTC trading, pushing its price above $78,000 briefly before a pullback, indicating market sensitivity to inflows.
- ThorChain Volume Surge: The attack boosted ThorChain's daily transaction volume to ten times its normal level, with 442 BTC moved to 400 addresses, highlighting the platform's ability to facilitate fund swaps in a permissionless environment while raising security concerns.
- Significant Liquidity Loss: The exploit caused Ethereum's total value locked to drop by 17.73%, with Hyperliquid losing 17.68%, Arbitrum's liquidity down 13.65%, and Solana seeing a 6.14% outflow, which could have widespread repercussions on the Web3 ecosystem, particularly in DeFi lending composability.
- Increased Bad Debt Risk: The KelpDAO attack resulted in approximately $177 million in bad debt on Aave, reflecting the hackers' evolution in rapid and untraceable laundering techniques, thereby increasing overall risks in Web3 and prompting participants to reconsider the necessity of freezing funds.
