The hacker who stole $197 million worth of crypto assets from decentralized lending project Euler Finance has returned the remaining sum of $31 million, comprising 10,580 ETH and $12 million in DAI, bringing the project's recovery to a close. The return of funds marks a rare instance of positive resolution in the DeFi space, where large-scale hacks have become increasingly common. Euler Finance offered the attacker a 10% bounty worth $19.7 million, and a $1 million reward for information on the attacker if the remaining 90% of the funds were not returned. The hacker returned the most-significant tranche of $102 million in ETH.
