Edel Finance paused its Edel Lending protocol after an attacker inflated the value of a tokenized Alphabet Google share used as collateral by manipulating the wrap mechanism between GOOGLx and wGOOGLx, then borrowed against the phantom collateral, leaving about $403,000 in bad debt. The token was mispriced at roughly 78 times its real value even though Chainlink oracles showed the correct Google share price of around $357, according to CoinDesk. Edel said v1 contracts are frozen, the team will absorb losses and restore balances one for one, and it is deploying a redesigned v2.
