DeFi firm Enso uncovered 'toxic pools,' malicious liquidity pools that fake transaction quotes during simulations but execute trades at worse rates, causing significant losses and failed transactions. These pools exploit off-chain trade previews on Ethereum and Polygon, leading to tens of thousands in lost fees and degraded user experience. Enso updated its Enso Shield tool to detect these manipulations and calls for industry-wide efforts to improve execution integrity verification. This threat challenges DeFi front-ends that promise best trade execution but may unknowingly route users to toxic pools.
