anchored·5zG6py…Y37pSummary
Omm (Open Money Market) is a decentralized lending and borrowing protocol built on the ICON blockchain, launched in August 2021 by Lydia Labs (formerly ICX Station), co-founded by Scott Smiley and Daeki Lee. On January 21, 2023, the protocol suffered a smart contract exploit in which an attacker deployed a malicious contract to drain approximately $1.9 million in user collateral across 18 transactions, exploiting a critical flaw in the Redeem function. Following the exploit, the protocol pivoted away from its money market model toward a liquid staking product, which launched in January 2024, though TVL and market activity remain minimal.
