KelpDAO and LayerZero Dispute Over $292 Million Exploit

KelpDAO has accused LayerZero of being responsible for a $292 million exploit related to its rsETH bridge, announcing plans to transition the system to Chainlink CCIP. According to NS3.AI, LayerZero has refuted these allegations, attributing the exploit to KelpDAO's use of a single-verifier setup rather than the recommended multi-verifier model. Approximately $71 million in cryptocurrency associated with the exploit has been frozen on Arbitrum. The disagreement has escalated to a legal battle in a New York federal court.
