Solana 交易所 Cypher Protocol 的核心贡献者（被称为“hoak”）承认窃取并赌博了该项目价值约 26 万美元的加密货币，这些加密货币是从去年价值 100 万美元的漏洞中追回的。霍克在一份公开声明中承认了这些指控，声称这是赌博成瘾和其他心理因素不受控制的结果。

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

Cypher Protocol 核心贡献者承认盗窃和赌博盗取了 26 万美元的加密货币

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.

令人震惊的是，Solana 交易所 Cypher Protocol 的一位匿名核心贡献者承认秘密撤回了该项目的加密货币，并随后下注了价值约 260,000 美元的赌注。这一消息是在该协议成功追回 2023 年 8 月价值 100 万美元的漏洞中被盗的部分资金之后发布的。

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."

这份供词于 5 月 14 日通过 X 帖子公开，由一位名叫“hoak”的撰稿人撰写。他们的声明承认了指控的真实性，并表示：“我拿走了资金并把它们赌走了。我没有带着它逃跑，其他人也没有。”

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."

早些时候，另一位匿名 Cypher 贡献者“Barrett”在 X 上发布了一份文件，声称属于 hoak 的钱包已执行 36 笔交易，以提取不同数量的 Ether (ETH)、Bonk (BONK)、Wrapped Solana (wSOL) 和其他来自 Cypher 赎回合约的加密货币，总计约 260,000 美元。巴雷特表达了难以置信和沮丧，他写道：“我从来没有想过这会是一种可能性，在漏洞利用后留下来试图重建项目的核心贡献者是从赎回合同中获取资金的人。”

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

巴雷特进一步透露，他们已就霍克涉嫌的行为通知执法当局。

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."

霍克的声明中，充满了悔恨和无奈。他们承认，他们的行为可能会带来严重后果，并表示，“我所说或所做的任何事情都可能不会让事情变得更好——也许除了在监狱里腐烂之外。”

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."

霍克将他们的行为归因于“严重的赌博成瘾”，这种成瘾已经失控，再加上“长期不受控制的多种其他心理因素”。

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.

他们描述了在参与 Cypher 之前遇到的一系列个人和职业挫折，这最初为他们提供了一种使命感。然而，他们声称在去中心化交易所（DEX）设计领域的创新方面一直举步维艰。

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

“我一直在工作，”霍克写道。 “我失败了，我又工作了一些，然后我破产了。”

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，他们让个人问题吞噬了自己，导致行为不稳定，人际关系和责任恶化。

"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时候，我完全失去了它，以至于仅仅试图将它保持在一起就影响了我生活中的其他一切，使我与长期的朋友、家人疏远，无法满足我设定的最后期限我自己，行为古怪，凡是你能想到的，”他们写道。

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 月的漏洞攻击以 Cypher Protocol 为目标，导致价值 100 万美元的 Solana (SOL) 和 USD Coin (USDC) 被盗。该协议随后成功冻结了价值 60 万美元的被盗加密货币，并制定了赎回合同和恢复计划，以补偿用户的损失。

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.

这一事件凸显了加密货币生态系统固有的漏洞，并强调了强有力的安全措施对于防范外部和内部威胁的重要性。它还引起了人们对参与高度波动且经常充满压力的加密货币交易世界的个人心理健康的担忧。
