Mango Market's exploiters Avraham Eisenberg wants to keep $ 47 million as a bounty
Avraham Eisenberg, the 27-year-old man from Puerto Rico, who deserves over $ 100 million in October 2022 by using the protocol for decentralized finances (Defi) of Mango Markets, trying to keep part of the funds as bounty for bugs.

Lawyers: Eisenberg is entitled to $ 47 million
according to the application, the lawyer's request for a comparative proposal by the Mango Dao, which voted to allow Eisenberg to keep the remaining $ 47 million after repaying the $ 67 million.
96.6 % of voters who represent 473.166 residents of the community voted for the proposal against only 3.4 %, which was a precedent for the agreement.
Eisenberg later transferred crypto assets worth around $ 67 million to the community after the agreement. The lawyers announced that the case was enclosed with the vote and that he was now trying to enforce the conditions of the deal.
"Week later, justified members of Mango Markets received a reimbursement from the Mango Markets treasury. At that time, everyone involved considered this matter to be completed, and Mr. Eisenberg heard nothing else from Mango Markets," said the lawyers.
under forced
Mango Markets claims to have been under coercion during the voting period, since the platform had lost $ 116 million of the wealth of its users and wanted to receive the money back.
In this respect, the Defi protocol opens a Streit to the court, which Eisenberg's lawyers opposed and applied for to obtain his financial damage.
Mango asked the court for support to reclaim the $ 47 million as a payment for compensation and interest from the day of exploit last year. The protocol also claimed that Eisenberg was "not involved in legitimate negotiations during the restoration process".
The lawyers from Eisenberg, however, rejected the claims and found that the "inappropriate three -month delay" for mangoes "all supposedly irreparable damage".
The lawyers also argued that the lawsuit tried to take advantage of Eisenberg's December arrest in Puerto Rico from the United States.
Eisenberg was charged by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) at the beginning of this month, exploited mango markets and used sophisticated software to manipulate his native cryptocurrency mango.
The charges of the SEC comes after the Commodities Future Trading Commission (CFTC) Eisenberg had accused violating were rules.
