Paradigm research partner and head of security, Sam (@samczsun), unveiled a joint effort between auditors, security professionals, and white hat hackers aimed at providing assistance during crypto hacks.
The working solution – a telegram bot – arrives amid multi-million rescue missions for Curve Finance, one of DeFi’s largest exchanges which was recently exploited for $73.5 million in cryptocurrencies.
According to Sam, SEAL 911 allows anyone to contact a professional from a pool of veteran security experts in emergency situations. The list includes experts from MetaMask, ConsenSys, Peckshield, Polygon, Origin Protocol, Wintermute, Paradigm, and Yearn to name a few.
Over the past few days I’ve been working with a group of whitehats, auditors, and other security leaders to try and solve the hardest part of responsible disclosure: finding the right person to talk to.

The initiative hopes to provide vetted assistance during hacks, and potentially mitigate losses from decentralized finance protocols.
DeFi’s community remains watchful even as Curve Finance recovers almost 75% of exploited liquidity. CRV’s price dropped along with TVL on Ethereum’s DeFi scene after attackers leveraged a reentrancy vulnerability to steal millions from crypto pools on Curve’s decentralized exchange.
Over a week later, the DEX recovered $52.3 million out of $73.5 million stolen in late July/early August. CRV’s price also buoyed back to 60 cents after dropping to 49 cents following the exploit.
Curve is offering 10% of the outstanding funds – worth $1.8 million – as a bounty in return for information about the exploiter.
