Uniswap security researcher recovered 2.3657 WETH swept from a wallet, offering 10% bounty for return of authorized security disclosure research capital.
Tech & Launches ·
A wallet associated with Uniswap security research posted an onchain message stating that 2.3657 WETH had been swept from an address without authorization. The message clarifies that the funds were research capital allocated for an authorized Uniswap v4 security disclosure, not funds left unintentionally.
The sender offered a 10% bounty—approximately 0.236 WETH at current rates—for the return of the swept amount to a specified recovery address. The transaction in question moved the funds on Ethereum mainnet, and the onchain message serves as a public appeal to the address that received the transfer.
It remains unclear whether the funds were recovered following the bounty offer, or what circumstances led to the initial sweep of the research capital.
