Decentralized exchange Balancer confirmed an exploit a week after disclosing a critical vulnerability in some of its V2 pools.
Despite risk mitigation steps and advising users to withdraw funds, Balancer couldn't pause the affected pools in time. An estimated 4% of the platform's total funds were at risk as of August 22.

Financial analyst Meir Dolev noted that $979,000 in DAI moved from Balancer pools, potentially due to the exploit.
