Ankr released an update on the attack incident: A $15 million recovery fund will be used to purchase the newly issued HAY and compensate affected users

ChainCatcher news, the Ankr team tweeted that they will be responsible for users and partners affected by this attack incident, and the team is working around the clock to handle and negotiate all compensation matters.

Helio will take full responsibility for approximately $15 million in bad debt caused by the attack on aBNBc. Ankr will draw funds from the $15 million recovery fund to purchase the newly issued HAY on the market and will collaborate with Helio to address the bad debt caused by this attack. After this incident, Ankr will work closely with Helio to help rebuild its ecosystem.

Ankr stated that it will take a snapshot of user addresses holding aBNBc and aBNBb at 08:43:18 Beijing time on December 2, 2022 (block height: 23545403) and will airdrop ankrBNB to this group of users. Ankr will allocate funds from the $15 million recovery fund to compensate the losses of BNB liquidity providers, BNB borrowers, and HAY users affected by this attack incident.

For users who attempted to redeem aBNBc and aBNBb before the attack occurred, Ankr will airdrop BNB to these affected users to ensure they receive BNB normally. To ensure safety, all redemption requests for aBNBc and aBNBb will be rejected and canceled after the attack. After the airdrop of ankrBNB, these users can submit a redemption for BNB using ankrBNB.

At the same time, Ankr is communicating and discussing with multiple DeFi protocols to plan compensation for affected users and implement a community recovery plan. It is worth noting that there are currently third-party communities promoting and trading under the name of ankrBNB or new aBNB. ankrBNB has not been officially issued yet, so please be cautious and verify information, relying on official announcements to avoid scams.
