Makinafi protocol has suffered a significant security breach, with attackers making off with approximately 1,299 ETH (roughly $4.13 million).
What makes this incident notable is that an MEV Builder successfully frontran the hacker's transactions, adding another layer of complexity to this already serious event. The stolen funds have been traced to two separate wallets: one holding $3.3M and another containing $880K, making it possible to track the stolen assets on-chain.
The incident highlights ongoing vulnerabilities in DeFi smart contracts and the sophisticated nature of attacks in today's ecosystem. Security teams and protocol developers are actively monitoring the situation as investigations continue.
