What happened
Researchers reported inflated rates for swETH and rswETH, but the loss of 2 513 ETH at Swell is not confirmed.
Why it matters
The report touches on the credibility of quotes for two assets and separates the alleged market anomaly from an unconfirmed loss of 2 513 ETH.
Researchers reported inflated rates for swETH and rswETH after the disclosure of a warning related to Railway and a key leak.
The message also mentions 2 513 ETH, which were reportedly held by Swell. However, the source separately notes that this amount does not confirm a loss of funds.
There is no data in the available material on the mechanism for the rate changes, affected users, or actual asset movements.
