NEAR Intents hit by $3.8 million exploit as crypto’s rough year of hacks continues

Özet: Kripto piyasasında önemli gelişmeler yaşanıyor.

Blockchain protocol NEAR Intents was hit by a security exploit that caused about $3.8 million in losses Thursday, forcing the platform to pause services and temporarily disable deposits and withdrawals on several blockchains.

The project said the incident was caused by a bug in the way its Omni deposit and withdrawal system interacted with the NEAR Intents smart contract.

The contract-side vulnerability has since been patched, and NEAR Intents said affected funds will be reimbursed in full.

NEAR Intents is designed to make cross-chain trading simpler.

Instead of asking users to choose a bridge, exchange or route themselves, they specify the swap they want and independent market makers, known as solvers, compete to complete it behind the scenes.

The platform’s website said it has processed more than $30 billion in volume across 35 blockchains.

NEAR NEAR$4.8457, the native token of the blockchain closely associated with NEAR Intents, was down about 6% over the past 24 hours at the time of writing, though the disclosed vulnerability involved its cross-chain infrastructure rather than the underlying NEAR Protocol blockchain.

The incident adds to a rough year for crypto security.

Just last week, exchange Bitget suffered an exploit that resulted in over $350 million in stolen assets.

Other major incidents included Liquid Network at about $320 million, Drift at $295 million and Kelp at $293 million, according to DefiLlama data.
