 <p class="is-style-lead">A black hat <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="hacker" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/hacker.html">hacker</a> proposed a takeover of KyberSwap’s protocol with terms including a doubling of employee salaries and executive buyouts.</p>
 <p>In an unprecedented twist, the hacker who stole $47 million in cryptocurrencies from defi exchange KyberSwap issued demands for total control of the protocol and all its assets. The unidentified individual or group attached its terms to a transaction seen on Etherscan, a widely used blockchain explorer.&nbsp;</p>
 <p>KyberSwap’s exploiter shared four primary demands including complete control of Kyber as a company, temporary ownership of KyberDAO and its governance mechanism and access to company records. Also, the hijacker said Kyber must surrender all on-chain and off-chain assets.</p>
 <p>The time-limited offer is valid until early next month, the hacker said.&nbsp;</p>
 <blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
  <p>This is my best offer. This is my only offer. I require my demands to be met by December 10, otherwise, the treaty falls through.</p> <cite>KyberSwap hacker</cite>

 <p>Kyber’s would-be director offered incentives for staff and top officials if their demands are met. The hacker will buy out executives at a fair valuation and double Kyber employee salaries as well, according to the list of demands.&nbsp;</p>
 <p>Additionally, the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="exploit" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/exploit.html">exploit</a>er plans to revamp Kyber’s project and reimburse liquidity providers for 50% of losses suffered due to the hack. The <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="hacker" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/hacker.html">hacker</a> warned against involving authorities from any of the 206 sovereignties and provided a Telegram handle should Kyber pursue dialogue.&nbsp;</p>
 <blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
  <p>“Additionally, should I be contacted by agents from any of the 206 sovereignties, concerning the trades I placed on Kyber, the treaty falls through. In this case, rebates will total to exactly O. Kyber is one of the original and longest-running DeFi protocols. No one wants to see it go under. To assist with this transition of leadership, I may be contacted on telegram: @Kyber_Director.”</p> <cite>KyberSwap hacker</cite>
