Sam Bankman-Fried Aims To Reduce Crypto Attacks
Sam Bankman-Fried outlined a framework to limit the impact of attacks and exploits that plague the industry, including limiting the maximum reward for attackers to $5 million.
Bankman-Fried, co-founder of digital asset exchange FTX, suggested in a blog post what he calls the “5-5 standard”, in which hackers hold 5 percent of the amount they take from a protocol, or $5 million, whichever.
5) Second, we need something to reduce the impact of security breaches and hacks in crypto.
One way we could do that is with a community standard that required attackers to return the vast majority of assets and prioritize customer protection, in return for settling the dispute.

Other important conditions are that customers must be integrated and the hacker acts in good faith, intends to cooperate fully and return most of the assets.
According to Chainalysis data, over $800 million in cryptocurrencies have been stolen from DeFi protocols in 11 different attacks so far this month.
