The @KelpDAO incident response is a relevant example of how DeFi protocols are handling these situations. Contracts were paused within 45 min of the initial event, likely preventing an additional $95M in losses, with early coordination alongside groups like SEAL-911 as the broader DeFi United recovery effort took shape. What stands out from a balance sheet perspective is Kelp’s decision to commit 2,000 ETH (~$4.6M) to the recovery fund. Based on their last ~$10M funding round, this represents a significant share of their capital base. In comparison, some larger ecosystem participants, including LayerZero, have not yet publicly detailed capital commitments or their role in the recovery process. Kelp also kept rsETH paused until there was alignment on a recovery approach covering both mainnet and L2 users, rather than reopening earlier. At the same time, questions remain around root cause and infrastructure responsibility, with limited detail so far on the LayerZero side. Still developing, but gives some signal into how coordination, capital allocation, and responsibility are being approached in practice rn.(Route 2 FI)
