Rekt & Reflect
🔥 DeFi Founders, Don’t Get Rekt! 🔥
Join Flow, Olympix, and the rekt for an exclusive brunch panel at the Flow Castle (10-11 AM), where we serve coffee, pastries, and the most brutal DeFi horror stories.
We’re dissecting some of the biggest, most catastrophic hacks in DeFi history - the exploits that drained millions, left protocols scrambling, and even brought in Interpol, FBI agents, and private investigators (yes, even hitmen were involved).
☠️ What you’ll hear:
The critical vulnerabilities that led to these multi-million dollar disasters
How they slipped past top auditors and the smartest engineers
The real aftermath - financial ruin, reputational damage, and legal chaos
What survivors are doing now to stop history from repeating itself
💡 Don’t wait until it’s too late - learn how to defend your protocol before you’re the next headline.
See you at the Flow Castle at 10 AM Feb 28th - where the coffee is hot, and the war stories are even hotter. 🚀☕🔥
