When roughly $6 billion was stolen from Binance, part of the haul ran through Aave.

Adam Sadowski, CEO of LlamaRisk, walks Kain Warwick and Taylor Monahan through why nothing was stolen from the protocol, how the hacker supplied $60 million in USDT to borrow ETH, and why Aave’s market freeze works as a one-way valve for users. Kain presses on whether anyone should be able to deposit $1 billion and borrow all the ETH in a single block.

Hosts:

    • Kain Warwick – Host of Uneasy Money and Founder of Infinex and Synthetix
    • Taylor Monahan – Co-host of Uneasy Money and Security Expert
