Summary

Resolv is a DeFi protocol issuing USR, a delta-neutral stablecoin backed by ETH with perpetual futures hedging, developed by Resolv Labs. On March 22, 2026, the protocol suffered a critical exploit in which an attacker compromised Resolv's AWS key management infrastructure to mint 80 million unbacked USR tokens, extracting approximately $23–25 million in ETH and triggering a severe stablecoin depeg. The protocol remains paused as of May 2026 while recovery and infrastructure remediation are underway.
