💥 Did you know that on October 13, 2022, the boldest and most “legal” exploit in DeFi history took place—the $114 million Mango Markets hack?
Trader Avraham Eisenberg manipulated the price of the #MNGO token on the Mango Markets platform (the Solana $SOL blockchain), draining $114 million from the protocol. The most interesting part is that he didn’t hide; he openly stated that his actions were a “highly profitable trading strategy” permitted by the code. This later led to his arrest in the U.S. on charges of commodities market fraud.
