According to Cointelegraph, Xatarrer, the founder of SIR.trading, a decentralized financial protocol that has recently been hacked, has pleaded with attackers to return about 70% of stolen customer funds, otherwise the protocol will not survive. On March 31st, Xatarrer wrote in an on chain message to the attacker: "This is my proposal, you keep $100000 as a fair reward for discovering critical vulnerabilities, and then return the rest. Even if we settle, there will be no legal disputes or dramatic scenes." Previously, the agreement was hacked for $355000 on March 30th.
Xatarrer stated that SIR.trading was built on four years of late night coding and $70000 from friends and supporters (without additional venture capital funding). Xatarrer even praised the hackers for their superb attack techniques, stating that if it weren't for the significant financial losses suffered by people, this attack would have been "almost perfect". According to data from Ethereum blockchain explorer Etherscan, the hacker has not yet responded and has already transferred the stolen funds to Ethereum privacy solution Railgun.
Xatarrer initially stated on March 30th that despite facing setbacks, the SIR.trading team still intends to maintain the normal operation of the protocol. They said on March 31st, "We have started planning the next steps. Those affected by the hacker attack will not be forgotten
