zkLend, a decentralized money lending platform on the Starknet blockchain, has fallen victim to a major exploit, with the hacker draining $9.5 million in crypto assets.
Blockchain security firm Cyvers confirmed that the stolen funds were initially bridged to Ethereum and funneled through the privacy protocol Railgun.
