Felix Wilhelm has authored a series of critical vulnerability disclosures through Asymmetric Research. He identified a Polygon PoS Heimdall vulnerability through which a rogue or compromised validator could have taken over the consensus layer and injected fraudulent StakeSync events, putting more than $2B of bridge assets at risk. A September 2025 report detailed a marginfi flash-loan vulnerability that created a path to borrow without repaying, placing $160M at risk before a fix was applied. That same month, he published findings on a Relay Protocol signature-verification flaw that could have enabled forged allocator signatures and potential double-spends. In April 2026, he authored a report on a critical p-token bug caught before mainnet deployment. Asymmetric Research attributes more than $5B in loss avoidances and more than $300M in recovered digital assets to its security and incident-response work.
