MetaMask is pulling roughly 523,000 ETH out of Ethereum staking, worth about $1.41bn, after an attacker rerouted the addresses that collect its validators’ block rewards. The amount actually diverted, by one researcher’s count, was 0.36 ETH. That is about $970.
No staked coins were taken and no wallets were touched. MetaMask said it has identified no immediate threat to MetaMask wallets, and Lido, whose protocol those validators run under, said no action is required from stETH holders.
