Rhea Finance suffered a major $7.6 million hack into its NEAR network after a vulnerability in its margin trading system was exploited to manipulate pri.
Rhea Finance has since confirmed the attack and initiated emergency measures, including pausing affected contracts and launching a recovery effort. While parts of the platform remain operational, the broader implications of the exploit are still developing.
