Math Prodigy Turned Fugitive: The Andean Medjedovic Case

Andean Medjedovic, a former University of Waterloo math prodigy, is a fugitive after allegedly exploiting vulnerabilities in decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms to steal millions. He allegedly siphoned over US$65 million from Indexed Finance and KyberSwap, defending his actions under the controversial 'Code is Law' principle. However, he now faces multiple criminal charges in the US and could face decades in prison. He was arrested in Europe but is fighting extradition, leaving his future uncertain.
