Sovryn Dex Suffers Exploit Resulting in $538,749 Loss
An exploit in Sovryn Dex's fee processing led to a significant loss. The protocol has since taken measures to address the incident.
On November 1, 2026, an attacker exploited a verification failure in the fee processing of Sovryn Dex's XUSD/WRBTC AMM pool on Rootstock. This exploit resulted in the attacker receiving approximately 541,456 XUSD, which equated to a loss of $538,749 for the protocol.
In response to the incident, Sovryn implemented emergency fee controls and delisted the affected pool. The protocol also began the process of reconciling losses incurred by liquidity providers due to the exploit.
