DeFi altcoin project announces restriction decision

TND, the native token of decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Tender.fi, fell 34% after the platform announced on Tuesday that it had stopped borrowing. TND, which is mostly traded on decentralized exchange Uniswap, bottomed out at $1.99 from Monday’s high of $3.56. The double-digit drop is picking up at the time of writing. TND price is trading at $2.4, where the day’s depreciation is down by as much as 8%.

White hat hacker stepped in

The Tender.fi team said on Twitter: “We are investigating an unusual amount of borrowing coming through the protocol – meanwhile we have stopped all borrowing. Thank you for your patience.”

The team reported that they were working with a white hat hacker shortly after the above statement. The protocol is currently being stress tested. According to the team’s statements, “we are discussing how we can rectify the situation. We will update you with more information as we receive it.”

With $71, $1.59 million could be borrowed

Blockchain detective Lookonchain said that due to a misconfigured pricing oracle contract, a bona fide hacker was able to borrow $1.59 million despite depositing only one GMX worth $71. White hat hackers are people who attack the platform before returning their hacking gains.

The hacker also sent the following message to Tender.fi: “It seems that the oracle contract is misconfigured. Contact me to resolve this.“ Currently, Tender.fi’s funds are in safe hands, but the hacker could claim a large reward.
