What happened
Fallback Exits would reduce debt alongside collateral, while healthy-position eligibility and the lender’s route to ETH remain unsettled.
Reported details
- Positions nearest liquidation would be tapped first and their debt reduced. Eligibility for healthy loans and the lender’s route to ETH remain unspecified.
Why this matters
Lido’s carries pricing or financing terms rather than a structural change on its face. If it sets out a yield, a spread or a financing cost, the figure worth having is the net one: after issuer fees, redemption friction, and the credit behind the collateral. A headline number without those deductions is not a return, and this brief does not treat it as one.
Evidence boundary
On Lido’s, the scope is limited to what the linked 2 reports state, and where they diverge both positions are recorded without either being picked in advance; the headline figure is what to check first.
What to verify
Read Lido’s for any figure it actually states, net of issuer fees and redemption friction where those apply, alongside the credit standing of whatever collateral is named.
