the two users of Cardano DeFi are rejoicing at this
Balancer and its forked protocols were exploited, resulting in ~$128M in funds drained across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Polygon, and other chains. Berachain even halted its entire network to contain the damage.
This Balancer exploit is structurally impossible to replicate on Cardano eUTxO model.
While the attack exploits EVM’s global state and integer arithmetic vulnerabilities, Cardano eUTXO model counters these vectors with single-use UTxOs that prevent state reuse, cryptographic signature validation for transaction integrity, and full-transaction atomicity that ensures all operations succeed or fail as a unit, rendering such an attack vector highly improbable.
This once again proves how security-superior Cardano’s eUTxO model is.
