Shitshow. xUSD is currently sitting at $0.33, and Stream has halted USDC withdrawals. This is a wake-up call to all industry leaders:
1. Wallets and lending protocols should improve UX by isolating high-risk vaults/pools/tokens. Giving users freedom of choice or using overly simplified UX is a form of laziness and ignorance—there are still plenty of these stupid product designs in the market.
2. Curators are risk managers; they must be held accountable or fully inform their depositors for allocating funds to random tokens without clear proof of reserves.
3. A hardcoded oracle can serve as a short-term volatility cushion, but it shouldn't be the default design. The xUSD price tanking is creating larger deficits that were supposed to be liquidated, with debt still hanging on @eulerfinance and @MorphoLabs , exceeding LLTV.
DeFi still has many flaws; let's fix them before the next crisis hits.
Yesterday, an external fund manager overseeing Stream funds disclosed the loss of approximately $93 million in Stream fund assets.
In response, Stream is in the process of engaging Keith Miller and Joseph Cutler of the law firm Perkins Coie LLP, to lead a comprehensive investigation into the incident.
We are actively withdrawing all liquid assets and expect this process to be completed in the near term
To keep our stakeholders informed, we will provide periodic updates as additional information becomes available. Until we are able to fully assess the scope and causes of the loss, all withdrawals and deposits will be temporarily suspended. Any pending deposits will not be processed at this time.
Our decision to retain Perkins Coie LLP reflects Stream’s unwavering commitment to transparency and robust corporate governance.
