[^2]: We list the attacker's address here for the sake of completeness, but technically the attack was executed with a Near-specific transaction type called ["Batch Transaction"](https://nomicon.io/RuntimeSpec/Transactions#batched-transaction) and not with a specific exploit contract.

[^3]: We list the victim contract, the exploit contract, and the exploit transaction on Arbitrum. However, the same exploit was carried out on Optimism with almost the same amount of loss: [Victim contract](https://optimistic.etherscan.io/address/0xDFeC2EA848Cf8fdA096503f8D9F37AFac6E0ECF2), [Exploit contract](https://optimistic.etherscan.io/address/0xEe29b6AEE6E4783Db176946e4e8F1E5fDCD446A7), [Exploit transaction](https://optimistic.etherscan.io/tx/0x6c19762186c9f32c81eb2a79420fc7ad4485aa916cab37ec278b216757bfba0d).

[^4]: The same exploit hit another victim with almost the same amount of loss: [Victim contract](https://arbiscan.io/address/0x4c8e1656E042A206EEf7e8fcff99BaC667E4623e).
