If movie plot threats aren’t real, what should users be watching out for? Although they make for a good story, the threats heroes face in movies are not likely to impact your life. In Forta's latest blog, the concept is explored in relation to Web3 security and how the community can refocus on the threats that matter.

Balancer hack proves the bad guys are out there, but they are now under watch. The Balancer protocol was hacked last week after a vulnerability led to hundreds of thousands of dollars drained from its pools. The attacker exploited the pools using a flashloan vulnerability 38 times on three separate networks. Forta’s coverage just on the Optimism network clearly illustrates the attacker’s methodology and the need for major protocols to seriously invest in incident response.
