On April 2, the derivative trading platform Drift Protocol, based on Solana, experienced a security incident. On-chain data indicates losses of at least approximately $200 million, with some estimates nearing $270 million. The project team reported that they have detected unusual activity and are currently investigating, advising users not to deposit funds into the protocol and emphasizing that 'this is not an April Fool's joke.' The attack involved multiple liquidity pools, including JLP Delta Neutral, SOL Super Staking, and BTC Super Staking. A single transaction involved the transfer of approximately 41.7 million JLP tokens, valued at around $155 million, along with other assets such as SOL, USDC, cbBTC, and wBTC being withdrawn. According to statistics, this incident may become one of the largest DeFi attacks in the Solana ecosystem since the Wormhole bridge exploit.
