The protocol's TVL collapsed to near zero following the exploit, stolen funds were laundered through Tornado Cash, and the protocol is no longer considered operational.","timeline":[{"date":"2021-05-06","event":"LendHub launched on Huobi Global and promoted as HECO chain's fastest-growing lending protocol.","source":""},{"date":"2023-01-11","event":"The exploiter received 100 ETH from Tornado Cash on Ethereum and began staging the attack.","source":""},{"date":"2023-01-12","event":"LendHub exploited for approximately $6 million via deprecated IBSV cToken arbitrage vulnerability.
