The Venus Protocol‘s isolated pool for liquid-staked BNB was compromised, as X user SaulCapital informed followers.

The suspect wallet address linked to by him contained little less than $260,000. NoOneVII, the Venus Protocol envoy, retorted that it seemed to be an Oracle pricing problem happening in a small, isolated market.

Venus Core Pool and other Pools are completely separate from each other and are not affected by this,

Brad, the head of Venus Labs, further verified that an incorrect price was given by the Binance oracle, which backs the snBNB asset in the isolated pool, resulting in borrows totaling roughly $200,000. The Venus Protocol announced on December 11 that it would provide further information soon.

 The $snBNB price feed is back to normal, Core Pool and other markets are unaffected. Funds are SAFU.
