Moonwell suffered approximately $1.78 million in losses due to a misconfiguration of a price oracle.

Feb 18: DeFi lending protocol Moonwell incurred a roughly $1.78 million default due to an oracle misconfiguration. On Feb 15, Moonwell activated Chainlink’s OEV aggregator contract for cbETH price oracles via governance proposal MIP-X43. A critical configuration error temporarily valued cbETH at just $1. On-chain bots and liquidators acted swiftly, repaying only $1 of debt to seize cbETH collateral worth thousands of dollars. The mistake triggered the liquidation of 1,096.317 cbETH, wiping out most or all collateral for many borrowers and leaving the protocol with heavy losses. The Moonwell team immediately reduced cbETH’s borrowing and supply caps to 0.01 to contain further damage. A spokesperson declined to disclose details about the error’s source or underlying vulnerability.

May 8th, *The Guardian* reports British sprinter CJ Ujah—2017 World Athletics Championships 4x100m relay gold medalist—is among 10 suspects charged with conspiracy to defraud, as part of a police probe into cryptocurrency fraud. The suspects are alleged to be part of an organized crime syndicate running a scam: they contacted victims by phone, posing as cops or crypto company staff to steal funds. Authorities say victims were tricked into sharing critical security information—including their mnemonic phrases—only to find funds in their crypto wallets stolen. One victim lost more than £300,000. The operation was led by the Eastern Region Special Operations Unit across Kent, Essex and London after an investigation. All 10 suspects appeared in a magistrates’ court last Thursday.
