TechFlow news, May 23 — According to an official announcement, the team has identified the hacker's Ethereum wallet address and proposed a time-sensitive white-hat bounty program, offering 2,324 ETH (approximately $6 million) as a reward in exchange for returning the remaining stolen funds. If the hacker accepts the terms, Cetus will refrain from further legal action.
Currently, Cetus has implemented multiple response measures, including contract freezing to prevent further fund loss, collaborating with the Sui team and third parties for fund tracking, addressing the root cause of the vulnerability, and engaging a professional anti-cybercrime organization to assist in negotiations. The team stated that recovering affected funds remains the top priority, and a full incident report will be shared later.
