Loan Protocol Loopscale Hit by Attack, Approximately 5.7 Million USDC and 1,200 SOL Stolen

On April 27, it was reported that the Solana-based lending protocol Loopscale disclosed on platform X that at 11:30 AM EST (UTC+8, April 26, 11:30 PM), the RateX PT token pricing function of Loopscale was manipulated, leading to the theft of approximately 5.7 million USDC and 1,200 SOL from Loopscale's USDC and SOL vaults. Currently, all markets of Loopscale have been temporarily halted for the team to conduct further investigation. The funds involved in this security breach constitute about 12% of Loopscale's total funds and only affect depositors who have funds in Loopscale's USDC and SOL vaults. Borrowers and revolving loan users are unaffected. Efforts are underway to restore the repayment function as soon as possible to avoid unforeseen liquidation scenarios. The team is working closely with law enforcement officials, security experts, and investors to recover the funds. An update will be released immediately upon receiving more information and a complete technical analysis report.
