TREE NEWS update: Loopscale halted its protocol after a sustained week of targeted attacks in which its API received more than 30,000 malicious requests per day. The attacker focused on the SOL and USDC Genesis Vaults, which have been recapitalized with no loss to user deposits. The protocol said it will not resume operations until the full scope of the attack is determined and security is strengthened.
Loopscale Pauses Protocol After Week of Targeted Attacks
The decision to keep the protocol offline until the full attack scope is known puts the focus on operational security rather than the immediate loss, which was avoided. For users of the SOL and USDC Genesis Vaults, the recapitalization removes the near-term balance-sheet concern, but the halt itself becomes the binding constraint. The open question is whether a week of sustained, high-volume API abuse points to a broader targeting pattern across similar vault structures, or remains isolated to this protocol.
