Eureka Trading Offers $3M Bounty to Help Recover Stolen Crypto

2023-4-17 11:15

Crypto trading platform Eureka Trading is offering a bounty of over $3 million for the recovery of stolen crypto from its platform. The founder said he was subject to a private key leak and crypto hack that resulted in $15 million being stolen.

Derivatives-focused crypto trading platform Eureka Trading has put a $3 million bounty to help recover funds it lost as a result of a hack.

The platform’s founder Kuan Sun tweeted about the bounty on April 16, saying that the value of the bounty may be even higher depending on the kind of help provided.

Crypto Bounty as a Last Measure

The offering of a bounty is another trend among crypto platforms that quickly offer financial incentives for recovering funds. There has been a slew of incidents in the market in recent weeks, with hackers returning the funds after negotiating with the teams. There have even been instances where the hackers have apologized for the incident.

One of the most notable such incidents in 2023 has to do with the Sentiment hack, a DeFi platform. The hacker had stolen nearly $1 million, returning nearly 90% of the funds. Before this, both Euler and Allbridge saw their attackers return funds.

What Is Eureka Trading?

Eureka Trading is a specialized financial derivative service provider in the crypto industry, calling itself the first of its kind. It claims to have over $500 million in assets under management, with a monthly turnover of over $50 billion.

According to the founder, Eureka Trading was hacked for about $15 million. He tweeted that he was subject to a private key leak, which saw the attacker making away with the funds. He also noted that there was some information on the attacker, but not enough to conclusively identify what had taken place.
