NEAR Intents exploit: coded Signal invite for the suspect

NEAR Intents suffered an exploit in which an attacker drained funds. The team publicly said, "We have identified you, sir." Alex Shevchenko, GM of NEAR Intents, told Laura Shin that the security council linked the exploit accounts to a suspect. He sent the suspect a private message and left room for plausible deniability. A Signal invite encrypted with the attacker's public key opened a private channel. Part of the funds came back in XMR. Shevchenko said an earlier NEAR ecosystem hack ended with all the money returned. He said he won't accuse anyone without proof of who pressed the buttons. He also declined to discuss the suspect's location and cited the XMR headache.
