😔 Echo Protocol on Monad Blockchain Hacked!

A hacker breached the admin key of the eBTC contract, creating 1000 eBTC out of thin air.

They used 45 eBTC as collateral in Curvance → borrowed ~11.29 $WBTC → transferred to #Ethereum → swapped for ETH → withdrew 385 $ETH (~$816k) into Tornado Cash.

The #ECHO team quickly regained control and burned the remaining 955 eBTC.

Actual loss to the protocol is $816,000. Monad #blockchain remains unaffected and operational.

Measures: halted all cross-chain operations on Monad + updated contracts. A pause in bridge and lending on Aptos $APT (as a precaution). Upgrades for other bridges are ongoing.
