The DeFi ecosystem is still vulnerable to exploits, as hackers allegedly stole $24 million from Harvest Finance and BTC pools.The DeFi protocol announced that they \u201care working actively on the issue of mitigating the economic attack.\u201d Harvest finance further explained that the attack was done via exploiting one of the liquidity pools \u2014 Curve Y. The attacker of Harvest performed an arbitrage attack using a large flash loan, which manipulated the prices on the pool. The attackers made a $50 million flash loan, which enabled the hacker to stretch prices and exchanged them for the highly-priced tokens on Curve.The total volume of trading on Curve\u2019s USDT and USDC shot from $10 million to over $2.7 billion during the exploit.The team at Harvest Finance quickly transferred all funds into the vault, noting that all stablecoins and BTC are in a safe place.\u201cThe attacker then converted the funds to renBTC and exited to BTC,\u201d Harvest Finance added. Harvest Finance reported 10 of the BTC wallet addresses to which the withdrawal was made, asking some of the major exchanges to blacklist the addresses.

The attacker, however, returned a $2,4 million worth of stablecoins back to Harvest Finance\u2019s deployer address.
