DeFi Protocol bZx Attacked Again, Loss Exceeds $8 Million

At 9:14 PM Beijing time on September 14, DeFi lending protocol bZx was attacked again. This attack resulted in approximately $8 million in losses. According to bZx co-founder Kyle Kistner's initial statement: 'This appears to be an oracle manipulation attack.' After the attack was discovered, the bZx team immediately used admin keys to pause the protocol. The attack reportedly exploited flash loans and Synthetix. 'However, it will not affect the Synthetix system, though it did involve sUSD,' bZx wrote on Twitter.
