Poly Network added that the tokens were transferred to a multi-signature wallet controlled by both the platform and the hacker. A person claiming to have perpetrated the hack said Poly Network offered him a $500,000 bounty to return the stolen assets.

The latest attack comes as losses from theft, hacks and fraud related to decentralised finance (DeFi) hit an all-time high.
