The Balancer v2 hack isn't about lost funds. It’s a trust collapse. A protocol live since 2020, audited and widely used, can still suffer a near-total TVL loss. That’s a red flag for anyone thinking DeFi is “stable.” No serious capital allocates into systems that fragile.

这个 @Balancer 算是 DeFi Summer 时期的以太坊老牌协议了。 流动性挖矿那会儿,很多人都在里面冲池子。直到现在,很多基于 Vault 的收益池和聚合器,本质上还是在复用 Balancer Vault 的流动性以及路由。 它其实之前就被攻击过不少次了我有印象,这次应该已经是第六次。

I hope you did not trust Balancer in this case. Because your money would be just gone. While a bank (at least in Europe and US) in insured and gives you similar~ish interest. Okay probably 1-2% lower for stables.
