Pause activations (trailing 12 months)
Pendle Finance's assessment for RD-F-086 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
One documented pause: 2024-09-03 18:45 UTC (all Pendle contracts paused in response to Penpie exploit), unpaused 2024-09-04 00:50 UTC (~6 hours). Reason documented: precautionary measure to protect $105M adjacent TVL. The Penpie incident falls ~19 months before assessment date, outside the strict 12-month trailing window (April 2025–April 2026). Without on-chain RPC enumeration of Paused events in the strict trailing window, cannot confirm definitively that no additional pauses occurred. Yellow reflects incomplete on-chain verification. If trailing 12-month window is confirmed clean, should be green.
