ChainCatcher news, SushiSwap CEO Jared Grey stated on his social platform that a recent attack on SushiSwap resulted in some Lido protocol participants obtaining hundreds of ETH. Sushi has already collaborated with the Lido team to find solutions to recover the stolen funds they have already paid, but some community members believe that Lido has no obligation or authority to return these funds, essentially giving the green light to distribute the stolen funds to multiple Lido DAO participants. Controversially, Hasu, the strategic director of Flashbots and strategic advisor to Lido, also supports this viewpoint.Jared Grey stated that attempting to use the bureaucratic processes of the DAO to obfuscate and hinder this process is hypocritical and completely wrong. He hopes to reach an amicable solution with Lido DAO and its supporters to return the relevant funds.In addition, the Lido community recently initiated a proposal on whether to return 39.8 ETH to Sushi, which is set to close on May 26. Currently, there is a 98.48% voting rate deciding not to take action, with Hasu voting in favor of inaction with 5.2 million LDO.Previously, on April 9, SUSHI RouteProcessor2 was attacked, and the Ethereum staking protocol Lido captured 689.02 ETH in MEV rewards.
