๐ Blockchain forensics firm, Match Systems, has successfully recovered $68M in stolen crypto from a "dust" attack that occurred on May 3, 2024. The funds have been returned to the victim, thanks to the combined efforts of Match Systems and Cryptex.net. ๐
In a separate incident, a crypto whale lost $69.3M in WBTC due to an "address poisoning" attack. Despite initial silence from the attacker, they eventually reached out via Telegram, leading to the recovery of the stolen funds.
Match Systems emphasizes the importance of reporting theft promptly. The chances of asset recovery are as high as 70% if reported within the first hour, but drop to 20% if you wait a month.
