The post $284M In DeFi Loans And Stablecoin Risk Traced To Stream Finance appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Decentralized finance (DeFi) researchers mapped out more than $284 million in stablecoin exposure and outstanding loans linked to Stream Finance, following the protocol’s collapse.  On Tuesday, a detailed post by DeFi group Yields and More (YAM) flagged dozens of lending markets and vaults, including platforms Euler, Silo, Morpho and Gearbox, that held positions connected to Stream’s synthetic assets, which include xUSD, xBTC and xETH.  The data highlighted the extent of the fallout. Exposure loops involving Elixir’s deUSD, Treeve’s scUSD and other assets suggested that at least $284.9 million in overall debt is owed to lenders across various markets. This excludes indirect exposure via secondary vaults and other lending strategies.  According to the post, DeFi funds and curators included TelosC, Elixir, MEV Capital, Varlamore and Re7 Labs.

Elixir claimed to have contractual redemption rights at $1 per deUSD. However, Stream Finance reportedly said that the repayment must wait until lawyers determine “who is owed what.”

The findings reinforce existing concerns about transparency in the DeFi ecosystem’s high-yield infrastructures.

The protocols involved had layered exposures through lending markets and derivative stablecoins, making it difficult to pinpoint who ultimately bears the losses. 

“This is not an extensive list; there likely are more stables/vaults affected, and the information presented here is not guaranteed to be accurate,” YAM wrote.

Stream Finance’s $93 million loss 

The exposure map follows Stream Finance’s announcement that it had paused deposits and withdrawals after finding a $93 million loss attributed to an external fund manager. 

The project stated that it had employed the services of the law firm Perkins Coie to investigate and recover assets. Still, it did not provide a timeline for resuming its normal operations. 

Prior to the announcement, traders noticed unusual delays and discrepancies between the project’s reported total value locked (TVL) and figures listed by aggregator DefiLlama. 

After the announcement, Staked Stream USD (xUSD) quickly depegged to about $0.50, striking fear among users. At the time of writing, CoinGecko data indicated that the asset was trading at $0.33.

‘Love Island Games’ Season 2 Release Schedule—When Do New Episodes Come Out?

LOVE ISLAND GAMES — Episode 201 — Pictured: Ariana Madix — (Photo by: Ben Symons/PEACOCK via Getty Images) Ben Symons/PEACOCK via Getty Images We’ve got a text! It’s time for another season of Love Island Games. With fan-favorites returning in hopes of winning the $250,000 cash prize, read on to learn more about Love Island Games Season 2, including the release schedule so you don’t miss a second of drama.

The show follows a similar format to the original series, but with one major twist: all contestants are returning Islanders from previous seasons of Love Island from around the world, including the USA, UK, Australia and more. Another big difference is that games take on much more importance in Love Island Games than the mothership version, with the results “determining advantages, risks, and even who stays and who goes,” according to Peacock. Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix is taking over hosting duties for Love Island Games Season 2, replacing Love Island UK star Maya Jama who hosted the first season. Iain Stirling returns as the show’s narrator, while UK alum Maura Higgins will continue to host the Saturday show Love Island: Aftersun. ForbesWho’s In The ‘Love Island Games’ Season 2 Cast?
