Lido has provided the latest update on the Kelp security incident, stating that the Snapshot vote regarding the EarnETH first-loss protection mechanism falling below the 1% threshold has reached quorum and been approved. User losses from EarnETH will be fully covered by Lido Earn’s first-loss mechanism. The rsETH held by the attacker has been liquidated, and the related stETH has been transferred to the DeFi United rescue plan.Additionally, the EarnETH vault is expected to reopen shortly after the Kelp protocol resumes operation, at which point users will be able to deposit and withdraw funds normally. Lido emphasized that during the freeze period, both the EarnETH and EarnUSD vaults continued to generate yield. Currently, EarnETH users only need to wait for a brief unfreezing process to complete. Once funds are restored, compensation will be provided in accordance with the first-loss protection mechanism.
