📣 New on the Nolus blog: When the Weakest Link Isn't the Code In under four years, six protocols lost nearly $2.8B. None of it to a smart contract exploit. • Ronin: $625M • Harmony: $100M • WazirX: $235M • Radiant: $50M • Bybit: $1.5B • Drift: $285M Every breach traced back to the same thing: compromised control. The attack pattern shifted from phishing messages to six-month embedded operations. Our new piece breaks down why governance changes the math. Audits check code.

Now that the dust has settled after the market wiped out nearly $20B, it’s time to look at how Nolus held up under one of the toughest stress tests in DeFi history 1️⃣ Protocol Resilience Nolus faced its biggest real-world trial yet and held strong From a total position value of $2.61M before the crash: → $146K (5.6%) were partial liquidations → $129K (5%) were full liquidations Exceptionally low rates given the market conditions 2️⃣ Smarter Price Feeds The Nolus oracle applies a 10-minute EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to trim outliers. For instance, $ATOM printed $2.78 on Nolus — while some CEXs hit $0.001. This design prevented unnecessary liquidations and protected users’ positions 3️⃣ The Market Anomaly Guard (MAG) protected $610K from wrongful liquidation (~23.4% of total protocol value). Funds that would’ve been wiped elsewhere stayed intact here 4️⃣ Infrastructure Even as markets broke structure, the network, relayers, and oracle feeders ran flawlessly

At Nolus, we’ve always believed that interoperability is not a feature — it’s the foundation. IBC is both the present and the future of DeFi, providing trustless, modular rails that let assets, liquidity, and innovation flow seamlessly across ecosystems. That’s why Nolus is built on IBC at its core. But our vision doesn’t stop there — we’re scaling beyond Cosmos, extending openness and connectivity into new networks while keeping IBC as the backbone of secure cross-chain execution. The future of finance isn’t siloed, it’s interconnected. Nolus will continue to push interoperability forward, ensuring users everywhere have access to leverage, yield, and opportunity. 🔗 Read more: https://medium.com/nolusprotocol/project-x-unlocking-cross-chain-interoperability-for-nolus-ffa5ced0caab
