Meta Pool hit with $27 million exploit, but attacker flees with only $132,000

Meta Pool’s early detection system enabled it to pause the exploited smart contract quickly, minimizing potential damages. Despite the attacker minting 9,705 mpETH tokens, low liquidity in the pools restricted the total funds they could extract.

Meta Pool plans to publish a detailed report on the incident soon, which will feature recovery strategies for users impacted by the attack.
