$18.4 million washed away! The ones truly harvesting you are never the market… Many people think losing money is because they "got the wrong direction," but this time I’ll tell you directly—sometimes, you don’t even understand the rules. Rhea was attacked this time, and the final loss was confirmed: $18.4 million was directly taken (far more than the initial $7.6 million). How did the hackers do it? Let me explain in plain language: they created a "fake liquidity pool," borrowed assets into it, only paid back a little, causing large positions to instantly become "low collateral," then what happened? The system automatically triggered liquidations, a bunch of positions were forcibly closed, protocol funds were directly drained. The key point—this isn’t just a simple hack, it’s exploiting the rules to harvest you. You think you’re just trading, but under this mechanism, you’re actually: providing liquidity, offering collateral, and finally being "legally liquidated" by the system. Currently, about $11.2 million in funds have been recovered/frozen, including some USDC, NEAR, and approximately $4.34 million USDT frozen (Tether intervened).
