Kelp DAO rsETH bridge don get hack, dem com drain $292M as LayerZero validator wahala dey

Kelp DAO rsETH bridge don suffer security breach wey involve LayerZero validator infrastructure; dem report say $292 million clear comot and two other fake transactions pass $100 million each. Recent report talk say attackers wey dem link to North Korea Lazarus Group use vulnerability for LayerZero ecosystem on April 16 by kompromize two LayerZero Labs validator RPC servers, plant malware, and DDoS the remaining nodes to redirect signing to fake nodes. LayerZero talk say the protocol perform as e suppose, but apps wey dey use one-to-one validator model go dey blocked from signing. Big yawa don start over who responsible. LayerZero dey argue say Kelp DAO one-to-one validator setup na wetin cause the risk, but Kelp DAO say LayerZero don review their configuration for eight integration meetings over 2.5 years and no raise any security concern. Independent researchers still point to public default code wey show the danger of single-source verification. Market exposure no small: Dune Analytics estimate say near 47% of about 2,665 LayerZero OApps use one-to-one validators in the past 90 days, representing about $4.5B assets wey dey similar risk. For traders, the rsETH bridge incident short-term na bearish for DeFi risk sentiment: liquidity fit freeze, TVL fit drop sharply, and bridge/smart-contract risk premia fit widen. For medium-term, the key be whether affected protocols go quickly move away from one-to-one validator setups and steady the liquidity flows. Kelp DAO plan to migrate the rsETH bridge from LayerZero to Chainlink’s cross-chain protocol, fully adopt Chainlink architecture and phase out LayerZero standards.
