Summary

CrediX Finance was a DeFi lending protocol launched in July 2025 on the Sonic blockchain that suffered a $4.5 million exploit on August 4, 2025, less than one month after launch. The exploit involved a compromised or insider-controlled admin wallet that minted unbacked synthetic tokens to drain liquidity pools; the team subsequently vanished, deleted all official channels, and failed to honor public recovery promises, prompting widespread allegations of a premeditated exit scam. Note: CrediX Finance (Sonic, 2025) is a distinct entity from Credix Finance (Solana, founded 2021), which is a separate legitimate RWA protocol.
