Ethereum staking protocol Lido stated on X platform that today's stETH Rebase has been completed as expected, and has compensated for the ETH rewards missed yesterday due to calculation deficiencies. The corresponding annual percentage rate (APR) is approximately 2.29%. Additionally, the protocol's oracle has been updated and passed audit. The new version will improve report processing speed and help locate the cause more quickly when similar issues arise in the future.Regarding the yield calculation anomaly that occurred yesterday, Lido stated that contributors are still conducting a root cause analysis. Further investigation details will be published on the official forum and social platforms. Throughout the entire incident, user funds were never at risk. Preliminary analysis suggests the issue may have stemmed from a specific edge case: the yield report from yesterday omitted a validator that was in a pending deposit status, causing some staking rewards to be excluded from the calculation.Lido stated that a complete post-mortem report will be released in the coming days to further explain the cause of the issue, remediation measures, and subsequent improvement plans.
Crypto bank Anchorage Digital has announced its integration with Lido, the largest liquid staking protocol on Ethereum, offering institutional clients direct access to its derivative asset, wstETH. Institutional users can now mint and redeem wstETH, earning Ethereum staking yields while benefiting from Anchorage’s custody and governance compliance framework. (The Block)
According to BlockSec Phalcon (@Phalcon_xyz), the $TOP token suffered a governance attack, resulting in losses of approximately $1.59 million. The attacker exploited the token’s low market capitalization to acquire over 50% of voting power at minimal cost. Subsequently, they passed a malicious governance proposal to mint a large quantity of $TOP tokens for themselves, then swapped these tokens for WETH via the Balancer liquidity pool—depleting the pool’s liquidity. BlockSec Phalcon advises projects using governance mechanisms similar to those of Lido or Aragon to promptly review governance security measures, including voting power distribution, quorum and approval thresholds, and minting permissions.
Linda Jeng, Chief Legal and Policy Officer at Aave Labs, stated during Consensus Miami 2026 that Aave's previous risk framework overly focused on financial risks and price volatility. Looking ahead, the protocol will incorporate assessments of cross-chain interoperability, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and underlying asset architecture.This reform directly stems from the rsETH incident that occurred in April. At that time, an attacker exploited a vulnerability in the KelpDAO cross-chain bridge to mint approximately 116,500 unbacked rsETH (valued at around $293 million), deposited it as collateral into Aave, and borrowed real WETH, leading to significant bad debt risks for the protocol.Jeng revealed that Aave will also release a formal "listing standards handbook" for asset issuers in the future, and will begin evaluating the correlation between DeFi protocols from a systemic risk perspective, rather than analyzing individual pools in isolation.Additionally, a "DeFi United" bailout plan involving Lido Finance, EtherFi, Ethena, and others has been launched to cover collateral shortfalls and prevent further proliferation of bad debt.

According to CoinDesk, Kelp DAO’s LayerZero-based cross-chain bridge was attacked, with the attacker withdrawing 116,500 rsETH—worth approximately $292 million at current prices, or roughly 18% of its circulating supply. This incident has become the largest DeFi attack of 2026 to date. In response, Aave, SparkLend, and Fluid have frozen rsETH-related markets, and Lido Finance has suspended new deposits into its earnETH product. Kelp DAO stated it is jointly investigating the incident with LayerZero, auditing firms, and external security experts.
