In response to the exploit, firms based in Solana, such as Compendium and Prism, are withdrawing their assets and advising their users to do the same.
The Compendium Foundation is temporarily withdrawing $CMFI / $USDC / $SOL liquidity from Raydium in response to the recent exploit.
It seems like the attacker gained access to keys used to collect fees from LP pools and authority has since been halted.

Just when we think #Solana can’t get worse, it finds a way to surprise us!

As a result of its extensive ties to the investment empire of Sam Bankman-Fried, the Solana DeFi ecosystem was hit particularly hard by the collapse of FTX.
