The Euler platform shares the story of its near-impossible recovery of funds
The Euler platform has recently shared the full story of how they managed to recover funds after the March 2023 exploit. The team responsible for this achievement has also been working diligently to introduce a more powerful and modular version of the Euler platform in 2024.
The Euler story is far from over. Today, we are sharing the full story of our near-impossible yet complete recovery of funds after the March 2023 exploit. The same remarkable team that achieved what many said was impossible in 2023, has been for the last several months
2023 was a year full of twists and turns (to put it politely) for the Euler community. I can’t think of a better way to say goodbye to it than by telling the story of how it played out. I warn you now, It’s a lengthy story. So strap in. See my War and Peace blog post below. It
Euler Launches Utilization-Aware Yield Projections
Euler has introduced a new feature that displays **utilization-aware projected yields** for its lending markets. Users can now hover over the Net APY metric to see a detailed breakdown of: - Projected market rates - Lending yield contributions - Borrowing costs - Intrinsic yield - Reward campaign impacts This transparency tool helps users better understand the composition of their potential returns before committing capital to Euler's lending protocol.
Euler Adds Transparency to Lending Markets with Collateral Visibility
Euler has introduced new transparency features for its lending markets. Users can now view: - **Collateral assets** backing current borrowing positions - **Live exposure metrics** showing real-time risk levels - **LTV (loan-to-value) settings** for each vault This update builds on recent improvements to Euler's refinance flow, which already allows users to move debt and collateral across vaults in a single transaction. The enhanced visibility helps users make more informed decisions about their lending and borrowing positions by providing clear insight into the assets supporting each market.
Euler Updates on Resolv Security Incident Exposure
Following the Resolv security incident involving unauthorized USR minting, Euler has provided an update on affected markets: **Current Status:** - Euler Yield market on Arbitrum remains paused with ~$500k USDC loans backed by RLP collateral - Resolv-related Frontier markets on Plasma paused with ~$50k in loans against USR collateral - Team awaiting guidance from Resolv on next steps **Precautionary Measures Taken:** - RLP disabled as collateral in Arbitrum Euler Yield vault - Euler Earn USDC on Arbitrum no longer allocates to Euler Yield **Expected Resolution:** Based on Resolv's commitment to honor pre-hack USR redemptions at 1:1, the Plasma market is expected to settle gradually over time. Euler continues monitoring the situation and will share updates as information becomes available.
🏦 Euler's EVK Enables Multiple Isolated Vaults Per Asset
Euler's Euler Vault Kit (EVK) introduces a flexible architecture allowing **multiple vaults for the same underlying asset** with different risk parameters. **Key Features:** - Curators can create both conservative and aggressive markets for identical tokens - Each vault operates in complete isolation from others - Vaults can accept other vaults as collateral through the Euler Vault Connector (EVC) **Benefits:** - Expanded asset options for borrowers - Increased liquidity across markets - Customizable risk profiles for different user preferences Users can explore vault relationships and connections at [explorer.euler.finance](http://explorer.euler.finance). This modular approach gives DeFi users more choice in how they interact with lending markets while maintaining security through vault isolation.
Securitize and Euler Enable Tokenized Funds as DeFi Collateral
Securitize and Euler have launched structured, isolated lending markets that allow tokenized real-world asset funds to serve as collateral in DeFi protocols. **Key Development:** - Tokenized funds can now be used as collateral in onchain lending markets - The partnership creates isolated lending environments for regulated RWAs - Markets are curated by kpk_io **What This Means:** The integration addresses a gap in DeFi infrastructure by enabling regulated tokenized assets to participate in lending protocols while maintaining compliance requirements. Isolated markets reduce systemic risk by containing potential issues within specific asset pools. This builds on the broader trend of RWA-lending convergence, where tokenization brings traditional assets onchain and lending protocols make them functional for institutional use cases.
