Summary

Sovryn is a Bitcoin-backed decentralized finance protocol built on the Rootstock (RSK) sidechain, offering lending, borrowing, margin trading, and AMM services with its native SOV governance token. The protocol suffered a confirmed $1.1 million price manipulation exploit in October 2022 targeting its legacy lending pools, with approximately half of funds recovered via developer intervention. A separate critical smart contract vulnerability was disclosed via bug bounty in March 2021 but was not exploited. ZachXBT has flagged the entity; no detailed public post from ZachXBT specifically detailing Sovryn allegations was independently located at time of investigation.
