Magpie Protocol
Summary
Magpie XYZ is a multi-chain DeFi yield-optimization ecosystem built on a SubDAO model, enhancing veTokenomics across protocols including Wombat Exchange, Pendle Finance, PancakeSwap, Radiant Capital, and Camelot DEX. The ecosystem has suffered two distinct smart contract exploits: a $129,000 router vulnerability in April 2024 and a critical $27.3 million reentrancy exploit in September 2024 via its Penpie SubDAO, the latter of which resulted in laundering through Tornado Cash and law enforcement referrals to the FBI and Singapore Police. ZachXBT has flagged the entity in connection with the broader security incidents.
