ENTITY PROFILE / KNOWLEDGE GRAPH

EIP-7702

RSS

EIP‑7702, introduced in May 2025 as part of Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade, lets ordinary wallets execute delegated smart‑contract code. Security concerns surfaced in 2024; Wintermute reported malicious delegations in May 2025, and WLFI token holders suffered losses in September 2025. The Binance $6.3 B hack likely used 50 EIP‑7702 delegations, enabling attackers to “sweep” the Binance 14 hot wallet. Blockaid and Ido Ben‑Natan view EIP‑7702 as a possible amplifying factor, though Ivo Georgiev notes the attackers could drain funds without it. The upgrade’s ability to bundle actions may have bypassed normal withdrawal safeguards, contributing to the breach.· Entity summary generated by Graphiti
