🤔 #AAVE Aave and CoW Swap have published conflicting analyses regarding a transaction where a user exchanged 50.4 million aEthUSDT for aEthAAVE valued at $36,000.
Aave attributed the losses to an "illiquid market" and introduced the "Aave Shield" feature, which blocks swaps that affect the price by over 25%.
In contrast, CoW Swap's analysis highlighted issues such as outdated gas limits rejecting more profitable offers, the best solver winning two auctions but failing to execute them on the blockchain, and data suggesting the transaction originated from a private mempool.

🕵️ A wallet "0x7a7" that received 7,447 $ETH ($16.29M) from Tornado Cash appears to be behind the $CAKE / $THE liquidation cascade on Venus Protocol.
The attacker:
• Used the $ETH as collateral on Aave to borrow $9.92M in stables
• Accumulated $THE and likely pumped the price on a CEX
• Deposited 36.1M $THE into Venus and borrowed assets like $BTC, $BNB, and $CAKE
~40 minutes later, $THE crashed, triggering liquidations.
Result:
• $2.15M bad debt for Venus (1.18M $CAKE and 1.84M $THE remain unrepaid)
• Attacker extracted ~$5.07M in assets
The real profit likely came from short positions on CEXs during the crash.
