Platypus Hackers Acquitted in Landmark Case After Exploiting $9 Million

Two individuals involved in exploiting Platypus, an automated market-making (AMM) platform on Avalanche, have been acquitted of criminal charges in France. The court dismissed charges of accessing a computer system, money laundering, and concealment. The accused argued they acted as “white hat hackers” to help the platform fix bugs, but lost control of a significant amount. The judge stated that the actions didn’t constitute unauthorized access to a computer system.
