#Gate Post Highlights KyberSwap announces treasury grants for hack victims

The grant is designed to ease the financial burden on affected individuals and will equal the USD equivalent of the assets lost in the security breach.

KyberSwap intends to provide financial assistance to users affected by a significant exploit on Nov. 22, which led to a $48.8 million loss for the decentralized finance protocol. To address this, KyberSwap is establishing a grant initiative from its treasury to offer compensation to those adversely affected by the event.
The grant is designed to ease the financial burden on affected individuals and will equal the USD equivalent of the assets lost in the security breach. This move highlights KyberSwap’s dedication to its user community and platform security. Although the specific details and criteria for the grant are being finalized, KyberSwap has committed to providing additional information within two weeks.
