The US uses a blacklist. You can put anything you want in food as long as it's not known to cause harm. You can even use poison to increase profits so long as it's just a little bit.
Europe uses a whitelist. You are only allowed to call stuff food if it's actually food.

Props to the

team & their patrons.
Their turnaround time on deploying the fix, deciding to cover the loss, & securing 120k ETH is astounding.
It's in moments like these that people see your integrity and resolve.
Most would have just walked away.
The team is working on a detailed incident report and will share it asap
18:26 UTC - contract was exploited for 120k ETH
00:33 UTC - vulnerability was patched
13:08 UTC - ETH contract has been filled and all wETH are backed 1:1
13:29 UTC - the Portal (token bridge) is back up

It's not just SVB.
How many banks handed out 30-year loans at 2.5%? How many parked your money in 10-year treasuries when rates were 0.25%?
What happens when you ask for your money back?
How many people are routinely doing forensic accounting on their bank’s balance sheet?
The Fed has made that necessary. Because it may not be just SVB with this problem. The insane prints and hikes of the last few years have created $620B in unrealized losses, up from $8B a year
