Kelp DAO has completed the recovery of its rsETH token following a $293 million exploit in April 2026 linked to North Korea's Lazarus Group. The final batch of rsETH was transferred to the LayerZero OFT adapter, restoring full cross-chain bridge functionality and confirming a 100.01% ETH backing ratio. Despite recovery efforts, Aave, heavily impacted by the hack, still struggles with a reduced total value locked of around $14 billion, down from $26.4 billion. Kelp DAO's core functions like minting, redemption, and rewards have been stable since May 14, but rebuilding user trust remains a key challenge amid increased scrutiny of DeFi security.
