What happened
A MEV bot (0xb2…2B96 is the MEV bot call contract, 0xb4…0343 is the single-use MEV bot) borrowed 95,000 WETH (worth nearly $180 million) via flash loan to attack Sashimi Swap. The bot swept away the last remaining money in Sashimi’s investment contract and slETH contract, but only about $3,500. It is reported that Sashimi Swap was attacked in December 2021 and lost $210,000, and the project was subsequently abandoned.
