Hacker Clarifies Refund Motive Not Out of Fear

The attacker of Curve Finance sent a transaction containing a message about the motive behind the refund, directly refuting community speculation about their actions.

They wrote: "I've seen some ridiculous views, so I want to clarify that I'm not returning the funds because you can find me, but because I don't want to ruin your project. Maybe this is a lot of money for many people, but not for me. I'm smarter than all of you, damn it!"
