{"investigation":{"slug":"hypervault-finance","entity_name":"Hypervault Finance","trust_score":0,"severity_base":null,"score_modifier":-1.4,"confidence":0.88,"status":"published","content_type":"investigation","summary":"Hypervault Finance (also known as HyperVault or HypervaultFi, X handle @hypervaultfi) was a yield-aggregating DeFi vault protocol on the HyperEVM layer of the Hyperliquid blockchain that drained its users' deposits in an alleged exit scam on or around September 25–26, 2025. Reported losses are approximately $3.6 million (some reports give up to $4.64 million) from more than 1,100 depositors; the funds were bridged to Ethereum via deBridge, converted to ETH, and approximately 752 ETH was routed into Tornado Cash before the website, X account, Discord server and GitHub repositories were deleted. The project had claimed audits by Spearbit, Pashov Group and Code4rena that were never conducted, while promising annualized yields of 76% on stablecoins and up to 95% on HYPE liquidity vaults.","sections":[{"content":"On September 25–26, 2025, all nine of Hypervault's vaults on the Hyperliquid HyperEVM chain were drained, reducing depositor balances to zero. Security firm PeckShield publicly flagged an 'abnormal withdrawal of ~$3.6M worth of crypto from @hypervaultfi,' consistent with a rug pull; its alert was published after the drain was already complete. Reports differ on the exact date: the survivor page's timeline places the drain on September 25 with PeckShield's alert on September 26, while other reporting dates the drain itself to September 26. Reports also differ on the total: most outlets report approximately $3.6 million, while some estimates run to approximately $3.6–4.64 million and approximately 752–1,126 ETH extracted. The stolen assets reportedly included approximately $1.55 million in WHYPE tokens, $191,494 in UPUMP tokens, $107,358 in USDC, and other tokens. Funds were bridged from Hyperliquid to Ethereum mainnet via deBridge, converted into ETH, and approximately 752 ETH was deposited into Tornado Cash across at least four Ethereum addresses, in what security analysts described as a coordinated operation completed within hours. The Hyperliquid network itself was unaffected; only Hypervault's protocol contracts were drained. Blockchain analysts BrutalTrade and SpecterAnalyst identified the primary on-chain exploitation addresses on HyperEVM as 0x79957ce3c826030d642b9ba6f60b896b61588af8 and 0x8d851eb3995ef0e2e7a3581316b4899b414c9bcf, with a funder wallet at 0x49c083a19a25734b0c66bcc0d16333a36c3a7bf0. Ethereum destination addresses receiving the bridged funds included 0xee882b9ada0895376fd90a2b6a80d6d7f7f06396 (631.59 ETH), 0x7901922af07526a66b63c479565f44e81889f4e2 (219.85 ETH), 0x56e90397133aea9b9a087c3c93467875ed4a2be7 (147.93 ETH), and 0xd74ea73957a4eac6a9636221421a3a69b4714eee (127.35 ETH). Simultaneously, the project's website (app.hypervault.finance), X account @hypervaultfi, Discord server and GitHub repositories were deleted, consistent with a premeditated exit scam rather than an external hack. No exploit of a third-party vulnerability was identified; the team itself is alleged to have orchestrated the theft using privileged contract access. DefiLlama now shows $0 TVL for the protocol with a warning that it 'rug pulled user funds.'","heading":"Exit Scam and Fund Drainage","sources":[{"url":"https://www.theblock.co/post/372497/defi-protocol-hypervault-vanishes-after-3-6-million-suspected-rugpull","name":"DeFi protocol Hypervault vanishes after $3.6 million suspected rugpull — The Block","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://coinedition.com/hypervault-drains-3-6m-752-eth-hits-tornado-cash/","name":"Hypervault Drains $3.6M, 752 ETH Hits Tornado Cash — CoinEdition","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://rekt.news/hypervault-rugged","name":"Hypervault - Rugged — Rekt News","type":"research","credibility":2},{"url":"https://decrypt.co/341539/3-6m-drained-from-hyperliquid-defi-platform-hypervault-in-abnormal-withdrawal","name":"$3.6M Drained From Hyperliquid DeFi Platform Hypervault in 'Abnormal Withdrawal' — Decrypt","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://www.quadrigainitiative.com/hackfraudscam/hypervaultfoundernickolssoninternalledgerrugpull.php","name":"HyperVault Founder Nick Olsson Internal Ledger Rug Pull — Quadriga Initiative","type":"community_report","credibility":3},{"url":"https://defillama.com/protocol/hypervault","name":"Hypervault — DefiLlama","type":"other","credibility":3},{"url":"https://bitcoinist.com/defi-alert-hypervaults-3-6-million-rug-pull/amp/","name":"bitcoinist.com","type":"news_article","credibility":3},{"url":"https://www.coinspeaker.com/hypervault-rug-pull-3-6m/amp/","name":"coinspeaker.com","type":"news_article","credibility":3},{"url":"https://crypto.news/hypervault-raises-rug-pull-fears-after-3-6m-vanishes/","name":"crypto.news","type":"news_article","credibility":3}],"severity":"critical"},{"content":"In response to community questions about the protocol's security, Hypervault's developers publicly stated that audits were 'pending via Spearbit, Pashov, and Code4rena.' Post-incident investigation found that none of these audits were conducted or formally contracted. When community researcher HypingBull contacted Pashov Group directly via Telegram on or around September 4, 2025, a representative of the firm replied: 'First time I hear the project with this name.' A concurrent check of Code4rena's public contest listing showed no pending or completed audit for Hypervault, and no engagement record with or confirmation from Spearbit has been publicly reported. Analysts cited these fabricated audit claims as evidence of deliberate deception designed to build false credibility, and they are alleged to have directly influenced depositor confidence. Separately, Zenith Security did conduct a legitimate draft audit, delivered privately to the Hypervault team on or around September 14–21, 2025. That draft identified 42 vulnerabilities, including six rated high severity and ten rated medium severity, with a recommendation for a full re-audit after remediation. The team never publicly disclosed the Zenith findings and did not remediate any issues before the drain. Zenith Security subsequently stated it would cooperate fully with investigators.","heading":"Fabricated Audit Claims","sources":[{"url":"https://x.com/hypingbull/status/1963685902946824642","name":"HypingBull X post warning about Hypervault audit claims — X (Twitter)","type":"social_media","credibility":3},{"url":"https://cryptonews.com/news/hyperliquids-hypervault-project-rugged-for-3-6m-devs-disappear/","name":"Hyperliquid's HyperVault Project Rugged for $3.6M, Devs Disappear — CryptoNews","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://www.okx.com/en-us/learn/defi-rug-pulls-hypervault-scam-risks","name":"DeFi Rug Pulls: How Hypervault's $3.6M Scam Exposed Critical Risks — OKX Learn","type":"research","credibility":2},{"url":"https://rekt.news/hypervault-rugged","name":"Hypervault - Rugged — Rekt News","type":"research","credibility":2},{"url":"https://bitcoinist.com/defi-alert-hypervaults-3-6-million-rug-pull/amp/","name":"bitcoinist.com","type":"news_article","credibility":3},{"url":"https://coincentral.com/hypervault-vanishes-3-6m-drained-in-suspected-rug-pull/","name":"coincentral.com","type":"news_article","credibility":3}],"severity":"critical"},{"content":"Reporting differs on whether the operators have been identified. Blockchain investigators and open-source researchers (Rekt News, Quadriga Initiative) allege that the public face of Hypervault was an individual operating as 'Nick Olsson' (also referenced as 'Nick Olsen' and by the pseudonym '0xNyck'), described as based in Sweden, who allegedly took part in video calls with the community and was reachable on social channels before the drain. Other reporting (Cryptopolitan, CryptoRank) states that no real-world identities have been publicly linked to the team, that all team members used pseudonyms, and that one was referenced only as '0xnick', who had described the product as still in early stages before the incident. A contact email associated with the project, rizwan.bizdev@gmail.com, was identified by investigators as linked to the same alleged operator network. Analyst firm BrutalTrade traced eight GitHub accounts with associated developer emails before those accounts were deleted after the drain. The same alleged network is linked to at least three prior projects — ZinoFinance, Zero-G Finance and PerfectSwap — all alleged to share infrastructure registered through the privacy-focused domain registrar Njalla, consistent with a pattern of serial exit scams. No legal identity has been confirmed through public court records or law enforcement disclosures. Zenith Security's representative Zenith256 publicly stated that the firm had identified an IP address associated with the operators and would share it with authorities.","heading":"Alleged Operator Identity and Prior Projects","sources":[{"url":"https://rekt.news/hypervault-rugged","name":"Hypervault - Rugged — Rekt News","type":"research","credibility":2},{"url":"https://www.quadrigainitiative.com/hackfraudscam/hypervaultfoundernickolssoninternalledgerrugpull.php","name":"HyperVault Founder Nick Olsson Internal Ledger Rug Pull — Quadriga Initiative","type":"community_report","credibility":3},{"url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/hyperliquid-hypervault-project-rugged-3-103317778.html","name":"Hyperliquid's HyperVault Project Rugged for $3.6M, Devs Disappear — Yahoo Finance / CryptoNews syndication","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://www.cryptopolitan.com/hypervaultfi-suspected-rug-pull-takes-3-6m/","name":"HypervaultFi goes for suspected rug pull, takes $3.6M from Hyperliquid users and nukes X account — Cryptopolitan","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://cryptorank.io/news/feed/00e88-hypervaultfi-suspected-rug-pull-takes-3-6m","name":"cryptorank.io","type":"news_article","credibility":3}],"severity":"critical"},{"content":"Hypervault presented itself as a non-custodial ('unmanaged'), auto-compounding vault system and yield aggregator on Hyperliquid's HyperEVM, marketed as a multichain DeFi hub that deployed funds across various DeFi protocols to generate yield. Its vaults covered assets including USDC, USDe, UBTC, UETH, USOL, USD0, kHYPE, WHYPE and UPUMP. Unlike the widely adopted ERC-4626 tokenized vault standard, its smart contracts used an internal ledger accounting system with no on-chain share tokens issued to depositors; balances were tracked in contract state via a global accrual index, making it difficult for observers or automated monitoring tools to audit depositor ownership or detect anomalous balance changes from block explorers. The contracts also contained privileged functions behind access-control modifiers, which investigators allege were the mechanism used to execute the drain. Investigators characterize the combination of non-standard accounting, hidden privileged functions and the absence of a publicly disclosed audit as structurally favorable to an exit scam.","heading":"Protocol Design and Privileged Access Risk","sources":[{"url":"https://rekt.news/hypervault-rugged","name":"Hypervault - Rugged — Rekt News","type":"research","credibility":2},{"url":"https://www.bitget.com/news/detail/12560604989007","name":"DeFi's Unregulated Frontier: Hypervault Disappears with $3.6 Million via Tornado Cash — Bitget News","type":"news_article","credibility":2},{"url":"https://defillama.com/protocol/hypervault","name":"Hypervault — DefiLlama","type":"other","credibility":3},{"url":"https://www.okx.com/en-us/learn/hypervault-rug-pull-defi-scam","name":"okx.com","type":"research","credibility":3}],"severity":"high"},{"content":"Hypervault marketed annualized yields of 76% on stablecoin vaults and up to 95% on HYPE liquidity vaults, substantially above prevailing rates for comparable DeFi yield products.

Peak total value locked (TVL) is reported as approximately $5.9 million, with DefiLlama-derived figures of approximately $5.86–6.01 million (and a range of $4.97–6.01 million cited around September 24, 2025) in the days before the drain. On September 4, 2025 — more than three weeks before the drain — community researcher HypingBull posted on X that the claimed audit partnerships appeared fabricated and urged users to withdraw immediately; TVL was then approximately $700,000. Deposits nonetheless grew substantially in the following three weeks, which some reporting suggests the team used to attract additional deposits.

No regulatory actions by the SEC, CFTC, DOJ or any other authority against Hypervault or its operators had been publicly reported as of May 2026, and no arrests, charges, asset freezes or restitution mechanisms have been publicly announced.
