Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

EigenLayer accidentally sent $5.5 million worth of tokens to an attacker, who promptly sold them, after its recent token launch. Initially, it was suspected that an insider broke EigenLayer's vesting agreement, but in reality, a malicious actor was able to convince the EigenLayer team they should receive an initial allocation.
