    We are excited to announce that the rsETH migration to @chainlink CCIP was completed on 5 October. rsETH now bridges between Ethereum and Base, Mantle, Ink, Linea and Optimism through CCIP.

    THE BLOCK: An unidentified Safe wallet user lost about $7.73 million worth of rsETH in an Ethereum exploit, according to Blockaid. The attacker used a public keeper multicall to target a custom Uniswap v4 liquidity provider module and route it into an attacker-created hooked pool.

    ⚠️Top 10 Security Incidents (January–June 2026) 1：KelpDAO, April 18, loss of approximately $292 million. The attacker exploited a verification flaw in the LayerZero-related cross-chain bridge validation flow, released a large amount of unbacked rsETH, and rapidly supplied it to protocols including Aave, Compound, Euler, and Fluid for borrowing and cashing out, ultimately evolving into a cross-protocol bad debt contagion event. 2：Drift Protocol, April 1, loss of approximately $285 million. The attacker obtained protocol administrative control by leveraging durable nonce, social engineering, and weaknesses in multisig governance, then introduced forged collateral assets and manipulated protocol parameters to drain a large amount of real assets from the protocol. 3：Step Finance, January 31, loss of approximately $40 million. The compromise of high-privilege devices and the treasury private key system resulted in significant asset losses. On February 24, the project announced it would cease operations. 4：Humanity Protocol, June 9, loss of approximately $31 million to $36 million. The root cause was improper management of private keys and multisig keys. After compromising critical devices, the attacker took over bridge administrative privileges and carried out fund transfers and abnormal minting across multiple chains. 5：Truebit, January 8, loss of approximately $26.6 million. The attacker exploited an integer overflow/pricing logic flaw in a legacy contract to mint a large amount of TRU at low cost and dump the tokens on the market, causing the token price to collapse rapidly. 6：Resolv Labs, March 22, loss of approximately $25 million. After obtaining high-privilege signing capabilities, the attacker exploited the lack of supply caps and ratio validation in the minting logic to mint approximately 80 million unbacked USR and cash them out. 7：SwapNet, January 25, loss of approximately $13.4 million. Its closed-source contract contained arbitrary-call / approval abuse risks. The attacker leveraged users' existing approved allowances to trigger malicious transferFrom calls and drained users' assets at scale. 8：Verus-Ethereum Bridge, May 18, loss of approximately $11.58 million. The cross-chain bridge failed to strictly verify whether the source-chain input amount matched the destination-chain release amount during the validation process. The attacker exploited this flaw to forge valid payloads and withdraw assets. 9：YieldBlox, February 22, loss of approximately $10.97 million. The attacker manipulated the price of USTRY in a low-liquidity market, causing the oracle to overestimate the collateral value, and then executed excessive borrowing from the Stellar lending pool. 10：THORChain, May 15, loss of approximately $10.7 million. A newly joined node operator exploited weaknesses in the GG20 threshold signature scheme, compromised a single vault, and withdrew assets across multiple chains, exposing the systemic risks of cross-chain signing infrastructure.

    UPDATE @Aave restores $WETH borrowing limits across six networks, reversing emergency restrictions imposed after April's $292M @KelpDAO exploit, as more than 95% of unbacked $rsETH has been recovered.

    On April 18, LayerZero's hosted infrastructure was exploited to forge a cross-chain message, draining 116,500 rsETH from the bridging adapter. Our core onchain and offchain infrastructure was not affected. As an interim security measure while we investigate a more secure cross-chain infrastructure, Kelp completed a full hardening pass across its current bridging infrastructure to prevent similar attacks. As of April 29, that work is done. What follows documents what changed and why it matters 🧵

    Pleased to announce that @ethereumJoseph and @Consensys are joining the DeFi United recovery efforts with 30,000 ETH to fully back rsETH and help restore confidence in DeFi. This is substantial support in the spirit of strengthening the DeFi ecosystem. Grateful for the participation from the leading Ethereum stewards.

    Kelp and @aave have been working closely with ecosystem partners since April 18 to coordinate a recovery effort for rsETH holders. We want to share some factual statements about where we are, progress made, and the next steps. @ether_fi @ethena @LidoFinance @golemproject @inkfndhq @tydrohq @Mantle_Official @fraxfinance and layerzero have each committed in best capacity. We greatly appreciate their contributions. More announcements to follow. The initial shortfall from the incident was 163,200 ETH. Kelp recovered 40,300 rsETH (~43,000 ETH), while the @arbitrum Security Council secured another 30,700 ETH. Following these recoveries, the remaining shortfall stands at approximately 89,500 ETH. Of that remaining gap, confirmed public commitments from Mantle, Stani, EtherFi, Lido, Golem total 43,500 ETH. Kelp has been in direct conversations with partners in this effort to formalize the contributions. rsETH holders come first, and that’s been our priority since day 1. We will continue sharing updates as further commitments are confirmed. DeFi United.

    April 18 LayerZero Incident: Additional Context April 18 Incident: Additional Context On April 18, rsETH was drained from rsETH bridging adapter through a forged cross-chain message. We want to ensure users and partners have the complete picture as the broader post-incident review continues. What happened. Two RPC nodes hosted by LayerZero were compromised. A simultaneous DDoS attack was launched against the 3rd RPC node. This was an attack on LayerZero's infrastructure. Kelp's own systems were not involved in building or operating that infrastructure. Kelp’s response helped contain the situation Kelp detected the anomaly, paused all relevant contracts on Ethereum mainnet and L2s, blacklisted all wallets associated with the exploiter, and engaged SEAL-911. A subsequent attempt by the exploiter, leveraging a falsely verified phantom packet to target an additional 40,000 rsETH (~$95M), was fully mitigated by these interventions. On the DVN configuration The 1-of-1 DVN setup is the configuration documented in LayerZero's quickstart guide and shipped as the default for any new OFT deployment. Kelp has operated on LayerZero infrastructure since January 2024 and has maintained an open communication channel with the LayerZero team throughout. The question of DVN configuration came up during Kelp's L2 expansion, and defaults were affirmatively confirmed as appropriate at that time. Establishing a shared and accurate account of what happened is the foundation for making the right fixes together. The path forward Kelp’s priority is our users and preventing contagion across DeFi. We are working with all ecosystem partners to analyse the impact, rally support, and explore all avenues of mitigation. We are concurrently assessing the potential next steps regarding protocol unpausing, impact assessment, and the way forward, and working with Aave, LZ, and all other key stakeholders.

    When we launched rsETH as the first liquid restaked token on Ethereum Mainnet, the market was nascent, just starting to pick up. We started from shipping Early Queue and Unpause Queue way back during the EigenLayer Cap days, then launched native restaking, rsETH on L2s and so on. Our $10M in funding helped us scale quickly. Today, one in five dollars in liquid restaking flows through Kelp.
