Case in point. Here's the line of code that introduced a bug in a contract that was ultimately worth $32M: https://github.com/openethereum/parity-ethereum/blame/4c3217... https://blog.openzeppelin.com/on-the-parity-wallet-multisig-... If you look at the associated pull request, it added over 2K lines of code, and removed almost 1K, spread across 20 different files. 5 files have changed so much, GitHub doesn't even show their diff by default. It was reviewed by one person in a single day.
In DeFi bug accidentally gives $90M to users
The Parity wallet bug from 2017 is the classic example so far, where someone who was just messing around with the smart contract 'accidentally' locked up $280m in assets[1]. I've linked to the GitHub thread below...this person didn't get anything from the exploit, and it wasn't for street cred (they deleted their account). https://github.com/openethereum/parity-ethereum/issues/6995#... https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/08/accidental-bug-may-have-froz...
In SafeDollar ‘stablecoin’ drops to $0 following DeFi exploit on Polygon
