How scoring works →Summary
Superfluid is an asset streaming and programmable cash flow protocol founded in 2020, deployed across Ethereum, Polygon, and multiple other EVM chains. On February 8, 2022, an attacker exploited a context serialization vulnerability in the protocol's host contract, draining approximately $8.7 million in assets from multiple projects including QiDAO, Stake DAO, Stacker Ventures, and Museum of Crypto Art. The protocol patched the vulnerability within hours, partially compensated affected parties, and has continued operating with additional audits and a native SUP token launch in 2025.
