Protocol is an Ethereum-based DeFi yield aggregator and stablecoin issuer (UZD, zETH) that suffered at least four separate security incidents between January 2023 and May 2025, losing a combined estimated $2.86 million or more in user funds. The protocol is notable for ignoring a prior warning from SlowMist before its largest smart contract exploit, and for a May 2025 incident in which an admin key compromise allegedly drained $500,000, with the team subsequently going silent for weeks and development activity having ceased months prior.","timeline":[{"date":"2023-01-26","event":"Zunami Protocol's fund transfer is sandwich-attacked in the mempool; approximately $49,000 is lost.","source":""},{"date":"2023-02","event":"A series of 13 flash loan transactions exploit price gaps between Zunami liquidity pools; combined losses from January and February 2023 incidents totals approximately $260,000 per Zunami's own disclosure.","source":""},{"date":"2023-06","event":"SlowMist privately notifies Zunami Protocol of the price manipulation vulnerability that would later be exploited; team response is described as 'unpleasant' and no fix is applied.","source":""},{"date":"2023-08-13","event":"Zunami Protocol is exploited via a flash loan price manipulation attack targeting the MIMCurveStakeDao strategy; approximately $2.1 million (1,184 ETH) is drained from zETH and UZD pools on Curve Finance.

How verification works. The “Row integrity” check above is computed in your browser — your machine recomputes the SHA-256 of the canonical bytes and compares against the stored hash. No avoid.net server can fake that check. The “full verify” link goes one level deeper: your browser fetches the on-chain transaction from a Solana RPC node and confirms the same hash is in the memo. If you don’t want to trust either avoid.net or the public RPC, run the CLI verifier on your own machine —
python -m src.verify_decision <event_id>.
