A hacker has exploited Resolv Labs’ smart contract, where it was able to mint at least $80 million worth of USR stablecoins.
As a result of the hack, USR crashed to $0.025, i.e., 2.5 cents, within hours. The stablecoin is unlikely to emerge after an 80% de-peg similar to Terra Luna’s UST.
However, the hacker was only able to siphon off $25 million; the rest was locked into the protocol after system admins got alerted.
The $25 million funds were quickly converted into Ethereum (ETH) by simply swapping USR.
