According to Svmuu, Drift Protocol has released a user recovery plan for the approximately $295 million security vulnerability incident on April 1, which was attributed to a North Korean-backed hacker group. Under the plan, Drift will issue receipt tokens representing users' verified losses, with each token corresponding to $1 in losses, allowing holders to gradually redeem based on the recovery pool's funding size.
Currently, the recovery pool has initial funding of approximately $3.8 million. Subsequent funding sources include up to $127.5 million from exchange revenue, Tether-backed funds, and up to $20 million from partner contributions, aiming to cover total losses of approximately $295.4 million. Drift has frozen approximately $3.36 million in USDC and has established a public bounty program offering 10% of recovered assets. It is expected to relaunch the exchange in a "security-first" model during the second quarter. (CoinDesk)
