Nemo Protocol Launches Token Program to Compensate for $2.6 Million in Losses
According to Hashi Chain News, Nemo Protocol recently launched a debt token program to compensate users affected by a $2.6 million vulnerability. The platform plans to compensate users by issuing NEOM tokens, with a value equivalent to users' USD losses. Nemo stated that while it would have preferred direct USD compensation, it chose to use the debt token tactic due to insufficient funds. The goal is to ultimately reimburse users' principal losses, based on an on-chain snapshot taken at the time the protocol was suspended. The protocol defines a three-step recovery process: first, users will be able to access a dedicated portal to migrate the remaining value of the lost funds pool to a new contract, during which users will receive an equivalent value in NEOM tokens. Token holders can choose to exit through an automated market making pool or retain their tokens pending recovery. Nemo also plans to launch a liquidity pool on Sui's primary DEX to facilitate user exits. All recovered funds will be deposited into the compensation pool for users to apply for, and some external funds will be allocated to the pool to provide support. Previously, on September 7, Nemo Protocol's funding pool was stolen by an attacker who stole $2.6 million. The attacker exploited a code vulnerability introduced by the developer, and the code was deployed without proper auditing.
