The lending protocol Tydro paused its markets following a suspected state-level attack on its oracle provider. Chaos Labs flagged the issue on May 4, prompting an immediate halt. No price anomalies were reported, and user positions remained unaffected. After 48 hours, Tydro decided to delay resuming operations until Chainlink oracles were implemented. The migration will trigger a 48-hour timelock, followed by a four-hour grace period for borrowers. Altcoins to watch may encounter resistance levels as the market absorbs the move. Tydro, an Aave v3 deployment, now holds over $700 million in total market value.

ChainCatcher report: Kraken’s Ink Layer 2 lending protocol, Tydro, announced yesterday that it will maintain a market suspension until the migration to the Chainlink price oracle is complete. On May 4, risk management firm Chaos Labs notified Tydro that its oracle provider had been compromised in an attack pattern resembling that of a state-level actor, recommending an immediate suspension of all markets. Tydro stated that no abnormal price feeds were delivered to its markets before or during the suspension, and user positions remained unaffected. Approximately 48 hours later, Chaos Labs confirmed that the compromised keys had been rotated, making technical resumption feasible; however, Tydro elected to remain suspended until a secondary oracle feed is in place. After the Chainlink migration is completed, a 48-hour time lock will be triggered, followed by a four-hour grace period allowing borrowers with health factors below 1 to repay loans or add collateral without being liquidated. Tydro is a white-label deployment of Aave v3, with total market size recently exceeding $700 million.
