Purrlend is a non-custodial DeFi lending and borrowing protocol deployed on HyperEVM and MegaETH, operating as an Aave-style fork designed for leveraged yield farming. On April 25, 2026, the protocol suffered a multisig permission exploit that drained approximately $1.52 million across both networks, collapsing its TVL by roughly 70%. As of late May 2026, the protocol remains paused with no published post-mortem, recovery plan, or user compensation details.
