Solana AMM Aquifer Hit by Attack, Loses ~$2.5M

This incident underscores that even on high-performance chains like Solana, AMM security remains a persistent vulnerability. The relatively modest loss size compared to larger DeFi hacks may not move markets broadly, but it serves as a cautionary signal for liquidity providers on smaller, newer protocols. The key question is whether Aquifer can fully remediate the exploit and restore user confidence, as trust is the critical asset in DeFi. Watch for details on the attack vector and whether other Solana-based AMMs are auditing similar code paths.
