Evidence summary #

No collateralized lending function exists in Pendle core markets; no bad debt mechanism is present. The Penpie exploit (September 2024, $27M) was against a third-party wrapper, not Pendle core — confirmed by rekt.incidents:[] in data cache and profile §10 framing. Per taxonomy PD-024, this factor is lending-only.
