An attacker used a bug on Stacker.news to withdraw 20M sats.

nostr:npub1qkfnmpuz692azr8c5phn0930x2v92xyqvwgr6ve8znaa3qd6c3hq09ertp has fixed the bug and is trying to make it right.

"If we can manage to get the sats back, I'll drip all those sats back into the rewards pool over the next couple months.

If the stacker that withdrew them is reading this and values sats earned more than sats taken, I'll voluntarily give you a nice chuck of what you withdrew. It's ultimately my fault and I should pay for the mistake, but I'd prefer to give those sats back to the community."

The most wild thing about this are the balls on the attacker. K00b knows who they are. They are a site user. In fact SN even interviewed them before. 👀

Again, not your keys, not your coins. Withdraw your sats to your own self-custody wallet if possible.

i remember 😟

oh nice. what time? i'd like to tune in.

Holy jesus! This is no good.

Se podrían recuperar? Sería buenísimo eso

Rough. Maybe give them a period of time to think it over, and (hopefully) do the right thing, if they don't, they should make it public who it was. I have the same identity across multiple platforms, they might too, and perhaps they don't want the cost of losing that identity.
