- DEFI is great until someone hacks you... then it kinda sucks...
The cybercriminals exploited a vulnerability in Poly Network, a platform that looks to connect different blockchains so that they can work together. Poly Network disclosed the attack Tuesday and asked to establish communication with the hackers, urging them to “return the hacked assets.” [CNBC: www.cnbc.com/2021/08/11/crypt...]

This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch. - บันเทิง
An evil part of me wishes the hacker’s only response was posting a video of himself smashing the hard drive the wallet was on
Cold as ice bro 😂😂
The character arc of this hacker is hilarious. 😂
Yoshi im a fan
My brother .....
He just wanted to be the main protagonist while everyone else was the side character and we just realized that right now.
Lmao I hope its some kid that used his dads shitcoin wallet.. especially the way they acted after the "heist"
The character arc of these insane amount of drops since save the children.
The way you throw shade at Tether by saying that they didn't wan to see those tokens redeemed got me dead 😂
Techlead: "It was me all along!"(As a millionaire)
😆 (as a millionaire)
....And I got cold feet because I'm too pretty to go to jail (as a millionaire)
Lmao
When he started referring to himself as a "legend" ... Oh, we know someone who does that, LOL.
hahahahaa
This happens ALOT with hackers. Sometimes they find an exploit, get very far and then realize that what they have done has real world consequences because it was all a game.
Not a hacker, just has a slight rebellious streak. But yeah, it happens. You thought it'd be fun and thrilling yet not expecting much out of it, but then you actually succeeded and you're like.. ehh wtf? Umm
Decentralized system
Uses Twitter to communicate
.... 🤷🏽♀️

Hacker : not gonna lie, i didnt think i was gonna make it this far.
Are you the hacker?

@@Thats_Awesome xzactly what the hacker would say
Tech Lead be like: "This is not theft, this is an opportunity" (as a millionaire)
*yes they are reliable and legit*
If he was really trying to be the good guy why didn't he tell the company about the vulnerability and get it sorted instead of blatantly lying through his teeth
I think he was saying he didn't wanna risk informing someone in the company who could exploit the hack instead of fix it.
@@averyporter6745 Very credible
@@Jartran72 More credible than 95% of these other crypto bums
@@averyporter6745 i think if people inside the company wanted to hack, they probably could with or without the exploit
Here quicker than Frazier Kay could dump his save the kids token
🤣🤣🤣
Touche’
This will always be a returning joke in every comment section of coffeezillas videos
This is getting old but still makes me laugh
Doubt you'll be that fast kek. Dude dumped faaaastt
Oh god I literally love X-ray crystallography. The way that the scientists conjure a 3D model out of a diffraction image of a teeny-tiny crystal blows my mind. Diving deep into this topic really opened my eyes to the abilities of the human brain. I love it.
Crystals to communicate in remote controls are more impressive in my opinion.
@crassgop I'd suggest quantum chromodynamics, but that has the word 'quantum' in it, so... maybe renormalization? Yeah, that sounds pretty boring and, well, normal.
@crassgop Honestly that sounded boring as shit. The word is a lot more boring than what it describes.
The hacker straight up could have been a 15 year old with talent and a healthy dosage of luck. Whoever they were, listening to this sounded very much like a fictional thriller-comedy movie.
This hacker took some adderall and thought he was Mr. Robot.
well, he sort of is lol
He sort of is tho lmfao...he finessed them .
@@weiSane No way. Alderson would've had this whole thing painstakingly plotted with plan B's and C's as redundancies.
Then he would've just burnt all the coins, or, more likely, distributed them all to wallets below a certain worth of holdings.
Exchanges being able to blacklist funds completely nullifies the "decentralized finance" part, even if the funds were gained via theft. That's why crypto won't ever work in the way these people want
Zilla is becoming one of the most interesting news sources.
You still watch the news?
@@bigpapichristo I read it. It's created my journalists, who I pay.
Are there any other news sources?
He will become a sellout when he reaches a bigger audience
Coffeezilla is the keemstar of crypto scams
Seems like alot of hackers are more interested in the process of hacking than the actual money. Its like breaking into the bank vault but you forgot to put gas in the get away car.😂
Zilla is killin it.The new world is constantly giving you material to post, I love it when a new drama comes about but hate the fact that’s how messed up our world is😂
Ok bag holder
Lmao. He said he was mad because poly accused him before he could say anything. Bro, you literally stole 600 million dollars of course youll immediately get attacked
It’s just a prank bro I’ll give half of it back
Finally somebody saving the damn kids
Lol
Nice haircut bro ! Finna go to my barber and say give me the "you can't scam me" look :)
The hanashiro subplot was pretty funny
Here as always pumpin that stock💯🤣🤣❤
Respect the pump
Yes baby
I rather pump something else
It's going to the 🌝
The Hanshiro guy is cool honestly. Giving a lot of money to charity, but just wants to watch the crypto world burn. A troll that wants to actually help out people
Dude is modern age Robin hood
not really bro basically just helped a guy scam millions then gave away pocket change lol
All the funds were eventually returned. This guy 100% was going to take the money if he could.
Yeah if he could disappear without a trace he would. Wouldn't he have been able to move the money into monero since it was a privacy coin? Then wait it out years before moving it in small amounts.
@@Storm_x He might have gotten away with some of the funds. But monero isn't 100% anonymous. Especially with such large amounts, it would be difficult to completely hide all the transactions even with mixins. Depends how greedy he is. If he only took a few million and slowly sold off his monero. Maybe?
There are probably so many people taking small amounts through this exploit and are sooo pissed right now lmao.
I was thinking about that why would you try to take such a massive amount at once? If it was me trying I would be taking maybe a few thousand a day on a bunch of wallets and tumbling it lol.
@@lennysmileyface greed get the best of us
Dude was probably just as shocked as everyone else that it worked.
I love X-ray crystallography almost as much as I love Laue diffraction.

Surprised you covered this. Watching g this unfold on crypto twitter was epic
We need more!!! This was a teaser
I can’t wait to see what Coffeezilla has to say about the newest Kay video.
Been here since 50k, I am so happy to have seen all of your growth. Keep it going Coffee!
fav channel of 2021, love it love it love it
Coffeezilla one of the most important dudes on YT right now 👊🏼
Coffee and TL best collaboration 2021
Youre always doing gods work. You are an inspiration to so many people man. Keep on being a hero.
Never been this early, We love you coffeezilla do what you're doing and get these shady scams!
This channel deserves infinite exposure
If this hacker is able to get ahold of so much, imagine what someone who planned ahead could have gotten away with.
“Maybe tether is scared they’ll actually redeem it”. I’m laughing off my rocker rn
Damn it. I’m not first even after 56 seconds of this video being out…
Dude this video was crisp! 🔥Keep pumping $ZILLA!!!!

So glad we finally get your perspective on this
Nice intro on $zilla with Elon 😂😂 .. just pumped it

Gotta hit that algo baby!
Glad you covered this. Such an interesting episode in the era of crypto
Plot twists: The culprit of this heist is TechLead
doubt he has the tech skill to do that lol
@@weihsu392 Mr Ex-Google, Ex-Facebook (as a millionaire) has a big enough ego to refer to himself as a legend like that hacker though.
When someone keeps insisting on saying how smart they are, most likely it’s because they aren’t smart. It’s just bluffing.
"What do we do now?"
"I don't know, i didn't think we'd get this far"
it would've been funny if the hacker actually burnt the funds, ethereum does have a burn wallet afterall.
the chaos ..!
Not sure why not tornadoing parts of it bit by bit over years.
XD
Doesn't matter, the miners wouldn't have mined the transaction to the burnt wallet. Probably.
It’s what I would have done, why not?
Awesome video dude
Love your work CZ
This seems like an Elliot Alderson type. Brilliant genius hacker but a little unhinged up there.
If that was Elliot Alderson, not a word spoken after that, just complete silence.
If this guy was the genius everyone was making out, why steal it all in one lump sum?
Why not inconspicuous increments over a period of time (the patient game)?
Or numerous smaller amounts to 100s or 1000s of different wallets then filter it through a tumbler/mixer service to retrieve it?
Elliot Alderson would've had this all figured out and probably would've donated the coins to charities or just burnt them all.
Edit: actually, he would've likely just distributed all the coins to wallets with the lowest sums. And he would've jacked it from the whales to endow it to the shrimps.
Who?
@@JaysonT1 The hacker main character in the Mr. Robot TV show.
@@undefinedvariable8085 He couldn't transfer it slowl, that would've been stupid. Because he only had one chance. Let me explain.
Basically the part of the code that was vulnerable was changed so drastically that exploiting it even once would've gotten the attention of the developers which would've been very confused. They would have noticed and fixed it immediately.
So what did he do? The part of the smart-contract he exploited had the job of verifying some other part of the code to see if it transferred/handled funds like it is supposed to. The hacker changed its function entirely to "Ignore whatever happens to those funds and how they're handled. Every type of handling is ok.". This allowed him to transfer legit money to his wallet which would've otherwise been disallowed. However this would've also affected all other fund transfers with that smart-contract, and thus was a very risky exploit.
So, whatever money he had to withdraw, he had to do it the first time.
Coffeezilla is the Chris Hansen of the scam world
always enjoying watching
Glad to see this video, thank you
“Believe me, the dividends are unreal.”
I bet they are Coffee 😂 you prob make a killing off us watching 🤣
Fascinating story! You said the hack was technically sophisticated but didn't go into any details, are you planning to do so in the future?
I was wondering when you were going to talk about this. Heard it on the radio. I was shocked. 🤯🤯
Yo that fresh cut tho 👌🏼
As someone that does X-Ray crystallography, your joke went over my head.
Ffs 😂😭

"we are the world" is a truly a classic. Just a wholesome song, written to stimulate donations to Africa. Has a great message and non-political. Clearly co-opted by this wonderful human being.
Should have just sent the lyrics to toto's africa, smh.
Africa is in the state that it is in because we keep throwing money at it, swelling the population without addressing any of the underlying issues.
@@Nick-zp8wk Africa is not in its current state due to other nations "throwing" money at it and swelling its population!
It is far, far more complicated than that.
@@jaymevosburgh3660 True, but I’m not sure anyone really likes the “throwing money at it” solution. In Africa, many see it as neo-colonialism and trying to buy and exploit Africa. In the countries donating, the people often see it as a waste of money because it’s going to ineffective governments.
@@Nick-zp8wk giant welfare state. Bad idea
It would've been great to watch him donate the money to charities! Lol
Aaaaand
100 millions to save the trees
200 millions to save the animals
300 millions to save children
It would have been the best ending
That was great Zilla! 😂
Techlead, Kay , this.
My man's been busy.
Bro what up coffee kay uploaded are you gonna make a vid about it??
When someone gets caught, the really do act like little children.
Today's con artists are children. (Mentally)
(as a millionaire)
Who got caught though? That makes no sense.
He's very likely a teenager. Also, who knows what kind of stuff he has been doing so far. Hope he gets caught.
@@hippiemuslim very well could be, it wouldn't surprise me thr least bit. My guess is with the amount of coin that they already had in their wallet, they are a support Dev, no doubt in my mind
Great video!!it’s good to know your crypto account is always safe- oh no! It’s all gone!
Great content.
Lol, "Doctors hate him"
I honestly think the guy was just trying out different exploits, and one of them worked unexpectedly, and now he's in.
A script-kiddie that got a bunch of skeleton keys and happened to have the right one to the vault.
This guy is the Florida man of hackers
Looking forward to follow up videos about this case
I always expect him to say “I’m your host killer keem star”
As an X-ray crystallographer, I feel personally attacked.
Oh yeah? Whats a TURBO FRODO?
I love your shows. These hackers never worked a day their life😢

Coffezilla have you seen -FaZe- Kay new video?
He updated his last videos thumbnail so I think he has
Imagine if this mad man sent it all into a burn address 💀
What a legend leet!!!
Good video, I'd like to see this unfold
Tbh, if the guy had found a tornado before pulling off the heist, he would have gotten away with laundering the money.
i disagree, its hard to mix such a large amount of money without anyone noticing. atleast the funds are being returned
no, he would have put the coins in, and got most of the same coins back out.
@@zorbanoodle5272 Africrypt, the South African crypto exchange, done it with $3.6 billion's worth of crypto. It's the largest crypto heist to date. It can definitely be done.
@@undefinedvariable8085 that was done in segments in a matter of months.....
Gotta admit, the dude got skills. And he gave some back.
he gave it all back except the tether that was frozen
He’s given back all of it except 33k
He go skills but no balls
Love the video man aha
Absolute lad

Great video! Could you also make a video on Jason Capital?
Great video
Defi assumes that politicians, regulators, and providers of capital will voluntarily give up control of the transfer & payment mechanisms. Which just makes me laugh and laugh
There are politicians all over the spectrum who support decentralized finance. Everything also needs to go through the democratic system. It seems very possible enough people will support it that politicians will too, just to get votes. Also it is very difficult to outlaw protocols and property in the west, and the whole point of decentralization is to protect against government or corporate interference so it could adapt its technology if it had to.
WE WANT A REACTION TO KAY'S NEW VIDEO 😍
Mentions of X-Ray Crystallograpy brings me back to a dimly lit university classroom learning about Bragg's Law with an analog projector.
