Fact-check findings
What an automated fact-checker found when it re-read Sirio Finance against the sources the page cites. Only the most recent review is shown.
These findings are produced by an automated reviewer, and its results vary between runs: the same page, checked three times on the same day, came back with 15%, 20% and 34% of its claims disputed, mostly because each run extracted a different number of claims. Treat what follows as leads, not rulings.
“Disputed” means the reviewer could not reconcile the claim with the evidence it cited. It does not mean the claim is false. “Unverifiable” means no reachable source settled it either way.
Nothing here changes the page on its own. A proposed correction is applied only after a human moderator approves it; until then the page reads as it did when reviewed.
unverifiable
3 claimsNo source the reviewer could reach confirms or contradicts the claim.
- #4[unverifiable][awaiting moderator]in the timeline
“becoming the first lending protocol on the network”
reviewerSirio was the first lending protocol on HederaThe page's own text also references Bonzo Finance as another Hedera lending protocol. Section 1 attributes this only as a self-description. - #5[unverifiable][awaiting moderator]in section: Overview

- #1[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in the summary
“suffered a flashloan exploit on February 1, 2025, resulting in an estimated $2–3 million in stolen funds”
reviewerSirio was exploited on Feb 1, 2025 for an estimated $2-3 millionDate and flashloan technique match DefiLlama. DefiLlama lists $2m, not a $2-3m range. The allincrypto article returned empty, so the range could not be checked. - #2[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in the summary
“post-incident analysis indicating the vulnerability was introduced when the team followed an audit directive from QuillAudits to remove a reentrancy guard from the protocol's smart contracts”
reviewerThe vulnerability came from following a QuillAudits directive to remove a reentrancy guardThe page states the allegation as an analysis finding. The only corroboration I found is anonymous reviews and the team's own posts (not readable). It should be attributed to the Sirio team as an allegation.
confirmed
2 claimsThe cited evidence supports the claim as written.
