Cypher 核心貢獻者承認竊取 26 萬美元並賭博

Solana 交易所 Cypher Protocol 的核心貢獻者（被稱為「hoak」）承認竊取並賭博了該項目價值約 26 萬美元的加密貨幣，這些加密貨幣是從去年價值 100 萬美元的漏洞中追回的。霍克在公開聲明中承認了這些指控，聲稱這是賭博成癮和其他心理因素不受控制的結果。

Cypher Protocol Core Contributor Confesses to Pilfering and Gambling Away $260,000 in Recovered Cryptocurrency

Cypher Protocol 核心貢獻者承認盜竊和賭博盜取了 26 萬美元的加密貨幣

In a startling turn of events, an anonymous core contributor to the Solana exchange Cypher Protocol has admitted to surreptitiously withdrawing and subsequently wagering approximately $260,000 worth of the project's cryptocurrency. This revelation comes after the protocol successfully recovered a portion of the funds stolen during a $1 million exploit in August 2023.

令人震驚的是，Solana 交易所 Cypher Protocol 的一位匿名核心貢獻者承認秘密撤回了該項目的加密貨幣，並隨後下注了價值約 26 萬美元的賭注。這項消息是在協議成功追回 2023 年 8 月價值 100 萬美元的漏洞中被盜的部分資金之後發布的。

The confession, made public on May 14th via an X post, was penned by the contributor known only as "hoak." Their statement acknowledged the veracity of the allegations, stating, "I took the funds and gambled them away. I didn't run away with it, nor did anyone else."

這份供詞於 5 月 14 日透過 X 貼文公開，由一位名叫「hoak」的撰稿人撰寫。他們的聲明承認了指控的真實性，並表示：“我拿走了資金並把它們賭走了。我沒有帶著它逃跑，其他人也沒有。”

Earlier, another anonymous Cypher contributor, "Barrett," published a document on X alleging that a wallet belonging to hoak had executed 36 transactions to withdraw varying amounts of Ether (ETH), Bonk (BONK), Wrapped Solana (wSOL), and other cryptocurrencies from Cypher's redemption contract, totaling approximately $260,000. Barrett expressed disbelief and dismay, writing, "I never thought this would be a possibility, having a core contributor who stayed on after the exploit to try and rebuild the project be the one who rugged funds from the redemption contract."

早些時候，另一位匿名Cypher 貢獻者「Barrett」在X 上發布了一份文件，聲稱屬於hoak 的錢包已執行36 筆交易，以提取不同數量的Ether (ETH)、Bonk (BONK)、Wrapped Solana (wSOL) 和其他來自 Cypher 贖回合約的加密貨幣，總計約 26 萬美元。巴雷特表達了難以置信和沮喪，他寫道：「我從來沒有想過這會是一種可能性，在漏洞利用後留下來試圖重建項目的核心貢獻者是從贖回合約中獲取資金的人。

Barrett further disclosed that they had notified law enforcement authorities regarding hoak's alleged actions.

巴雷特進一步透露，他們已就霍克涉嫌的行為通知執法當局。

In hoak's statement, a sense of remorse and resignation permeated their words. They acknowledged that their actions would likely be met with severe consequences, stating, "likely nothing I say or do will make things better — perhaps other than rotting in jail."

霍克的聲明中，充滿了悔恨和無奈。他們承認，他們的行為可能會帶來嚴重後果，並表示，“我所說或所做的任何事情都可能不會讓事情變得更好——也許除了在監獄裡腐爛之外。”

Hoak attributed their behavior to a "crippling gambling addiction" that had spiraled out of control, compounded by "multiple other psychological factors that went by unchecked for too long."

霍克將他們的行為歸因於“嚴重的賭博成癮”，這種成癮已經失控，再加上“長期不受控制的多種其他心理因素”。

They described a series of personal and professional setbacks that preceded their involvement with Cypher, which initially provided them with a sense of purpose. However, they claimed to have struggled to innovate within the decentralized exchange (DEX) design space.

他們描述了在參與 Cypher 之前遇到的一系列個人和職業挫折，這最初為他們提供了一種使命感。然而，他們聲稱在去中心化交易所（DEX）設計領域的創新方面一直舉步維艱。

"I worked and worked," hoak wrote. "I failed, I worked some more and I broke."

「我一直在工作，」霍克寫道。 “我失敗了，我又工作了一些，然後我破產了。”

According to hoak, they allowed their personal problems to consume them, leading to erratic behaviors and a deterioration in their relationships and responsibilities.

霍克表示，他們讓個人問題吞噬了自己，導致行為不穩定，人際關係和責任惡化。

"I completely lost it late last year and earlier this year to the point where simply trying to hold it together was impacting everything else in my life, distancing myself from long-time friends, family, not being able to meet the deadlines I set for myself, having erratic behaviors, you name it," they wrote.

「去年年底和今年早些時候，我完全失去了它，以至於僅僅試圖將它保持在一起就影響了我生活中的其他一切，使我與長期的朋友、家人疏遠，無法滿足我設定的最後期限我自己，行為古怪，凡是你能想到的，」他們寫道。

The August 2023 exploit had targeted Cypher Protocol, resulting in the theft of $1 million worth of Solana (SOL) and USD Coin (USDC). The protocol subsequently managed to freeze $600,000 of the stolen cryptocurrency and established a redemption contract and recovery plan to reimburse users for their losses.

2023 年 8 月的漏洞攻擊以 Cypher Protocol 為目標，導致價值 100 萬美元的 Solana (SOL) 和 USD Coin (USDC) 被盜。該協議隨後成功凍結了價值 60 萬美元的被盜加密貨幣，並製定了贖回合約和恢復計劃，以補償用戶的損失。

This incident underscores the vulnerabilities inherent in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and highlights the importance of robust security measures to protect against both external and internal threats. It also raises concerns about the psychological well-being of individuals involved in the highly volatile and often stressful world of cryptocurrency trading.

這事件凸顯了加密貨幣生態系統固有的漏洞，並強調了強而有力的安全措施對於防範外部和內部威脅的重要性。它也引起了人們對參與高度波動且經常充滿壓力的加密貨幣交易世界的個人心理健康的擔憂。
