OrbitLending, a leading decentralized application on the Blast L2 network and a 'Big Bang' winner, recently faced a significant operational hiccup when users reported being unable to withdraw funds from over $350M+ locked in contracts. The platform, which is nearing $1 billion in total value locked (TVL), encountered this issue following an unaudited update pushed by the development team, leading to a disruption lasting about 10 hours. The problem was attributed to a reset in $ORBIT reward emission rates linked to withdrawals in the Compound V2 contracts. OrbitLending's team, described by a user as 'Absolute clowns', responded by implementing a fix, assuring that the maintenance and issue did not affect users' funds. The incident has raised concerns about the platform's operational practices, especially the decision to push updates without prior audits.
