The protocol suffered a protocol logic exploit on April 7, 2025, resulting in a loss of approximately $10,850 via a proxy upgrade skim technique on Ethereum; the incident was relatively small in dollar terms but raised concerns about smart contract integrity.

   Score: 52 → 52 (no score change)
   The majority of factual claims about Tenderize V2 are confirmed or partially supported by independent sources. The most significant concern is the unverified claim that ZachXBT flagged this entity, which carries substantial reputational weight but has no cited source and could not be independently confirmed. The TVL figure of ~$495K is stale; current data shows the Ethereum+Arbitrum portion at ~$343K while the full protocol (including Sei) is approximately $13M. Minor date discrepancies exist in the Hacken audit timeline entry, and the WAGYU TGE date of 'May 2024' is plausible but imprecise based on available evidence.

   Score: 52 → 37 (-15)
   The reviewer confirmed 8 of 13 claims outright, with no claims formally disputed. However, claim_findings[4] — that ZachXBT flagged this entity — is unverifiable: no cited source exists in the page and independent search found no connection between ZachXBT and Tenderize. Because this allegation appears in the page summary and carries significant reputational weight, it cannot remain unsourced. Additionally, claim_findings[7] shows the stated TVL of ~$495,000 is stale relative to current DefiLlama data. Minor date imprecision in claim_findings[10] and an unconfirmed TGE date in claim_findings[11] are lower-severity but also warrant correction. The page should be revised to either source or remove the ZachXBT reference, update the TVL figure, and correct the Hacken audit timeline date.
