Governance token THE of Venus (XVS), a money market based on BNB Chain, fell more than 9% after suffering a $2.15 million attack on its Thena market. The attacker accumulated large amounts of THE tokens through Tornado Cash and manipulated market exchange rates to borrow assets, resulting in price collapse and mass liquidations. Venus has suspended borrowing of THE, zeroed its collateral value, and tightened rules for other risk markets. Venus stated that users' funds outside the affected pool have not suffered losses. The governance layer will decide how to compensate for losses through the protocol's risk fund.
