White hat: I returned most of the stolen Nomad funds and all I got was this silly NFT

Metagame’s founder, who’s behind the NFT offering, said he has no idea whether it’ll actually incentivize hackers to return funds, but it’ll “be cool if it does!”

Hackers behind the $190 million Nomad Bridge are now being incentivized with white hat-themed nonfungible tokens (NFTs) if they return nearly all of the funds they stole from the protocol at the start of this month.

The exclusive NFT, which simply depicts a white wizard’s hat, is being offered by NFT firm Metagame and can be minted by those that return at least 90% of their stolen funds to Nomad.
