How crypto lending pools work
Lenders deposit into a shared pool, and borrowers post more collateral than they borrow. Automatic liquidations protect the pool until they don’t.
Demo Lending pauses one pool
The team paused one pool after a suspected exploit. Other depositors are not known to be affected, and a post-mortem is promised.
What to do now
- Don’t click repayment links from social media or messages.
- Wait for the post-mortem on the project’s official channels.
- Review and remove token approvals you no longer need.
Are you affected?
You may be affected if you deposited in the paused pool. Check your positions using the official app address you already trust.
Ignore messages offering a fix, a refund or a recovery service. Never share your seed phrase or private key.
