- October 2022 is the month with the most number of crypto hacks.
On December 2, 2022, An anonymous group of hackers drained around $15 million in liquidity from BNB Chain-based staking platform Helio after exploiting an oracle issue with the platform’s on-chain data.
Oracles are third-party services that collect outsourced data from several other blockchains. Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols use oracles to ensure their lending, borrowing, and other services are accurate.
Helio exploitation update came into the limelight an hour after the DeFi platform Ankr was attacked, and around $5 million were stolen from the DeFi platform. According to the report, the attackers were able to mint six quadrillion aBNBc tokens, and after minting, the attackers changed them into five million USDC stablecoins.
Moreover, it is difficult to predict whether the same group of hackers operated the attacks.
According to Blockchain data on Friday morning, the Helio attacker acquired around 183K aBNBc tokens using 10 BNB and further delayed oracle data on Helio, then allowed the attacker to borrow a sum of $16 million of HAY stablecoins.
Nowadays, crypto attacks and hacks are quite common, and as per reliable reports, November 2022 is the month in which most crypto attacks occur.
