🚨 A $292M exploit just exposed a war between two of DeFi's biggest names and the blame game is getting ugly.
Kelp isn't staying quiet.
They're pointing the finger directly at LayerZero Labs.
Compromised RPC nodes.
A coordinated DDoS attack.
$292M in rsETH gone.
And Kelp's message is clear:
This wasn't us.
LayerZero's infrastructure was the entry point.
That's the claim on the table and it changes everything.
Because if a top-tier messaging protocol's nodes can be compromised at this scale...
No bridge is safe.
No cross-chain asset is safe.
Nothing built on top of compromised infrastructure is safe.
Aave is already in the room.
Recovery coordination is underway.
But here's what nobody's asking yet:
Who else was exposed during that DDoS window?
What other protocols were running through those same RPC nodes?
The April 18 incident wasn't just a hack.
It was a stress test that DeFi failed in public.
Watch this space. The counter-response from LayerZero will either restore confidence in the entire cross-chain ecosystem or crater it.
$292M is the headline.
The trust destruction is the real number.
