It's over, everything is over. Solana ecosystem DeFi protocol Drift was hit by a major hack in the early morning hours, with approximately $280 million worth of cryptocurrency transferred.
The hacker even moved some assets to the Ethereum network and bought ETH, with the most stolen assets being $150 million in JLP and $60.4 million in USDC.
Additionally, a detail is that the co-founder of the project was featured on Forbes U30 last year (known in the industry as the Anti-List).
As a result, the platform's own governance token hit a new low. #Drift

The co-founder of Delphi Digital criticized Circle for not freezing the USDC associated with the Drift hack.
According to him, Circle has centralized mechanisms for blocking, but transactions with these funds were not halted.
➤ On-chain detective ZachXBT also called the company's reaction slow. According to him, within a few hours, millions of dollars were transferred from the Solana network to Ethereum via CCTP without any restrictions.
Meanwhile, just a few days ago, Circle blocked 16 hot wallets belonging to various business projects, and their unblocking is still proceeding v
