Summary

Conic Finance was a DeFi liquidity-diversification protocol built on Curve Finance that allowed users to deposit assets into Omnipools across multiple Curve pools. On July 21, 2023, the protocol suffered two separate exploits totaling approximately $4.2 million — a $3.26 million read-only reentrancy attack on its ETH Omnipool and a subsequent $300,000 sandwich attack on its crvUSD Omnipool — after which TVL never recovered. In March 2025, the team formally shut down the protocol, citing an inability to fix critical security issues in a planned v2 upgrade.
