This bug could've nuked Polkadot DeFi Summer 🫣

On June 18, a whitehat hacker reported a critical vulnerability through the Immunefi bug bounty program that could have drained $22M from Hydration's stablepools. 

Within X hours, the Intergalactic team acted swiftly - pausing liquidity and deploying a stealth patch. No funds were lost. Polkadot DeFi is secured. 

The whitehat will be rewarded with $500K - half in stablecoins, half in HDX (vested over XX months). 

This once again proves how important it is to have bug bounty programs in the ecosystem as an extra line of defense. Stay hydrated, not liquidated
