Exchange record

CometDEX

Soroban weighted-AMM implementation in the Stellar ecosystem. Comet code has been used as the Blend lending protocol's backstop pool; the BLND-USDC Comet pool was exploited on 2026-08-25 through a same-asset swap accounting bug, after which the affected backstop was paused. HEI therefore treats the entity as limited rather than active or dead while independent current exchange operation is not established.

Summary

Soroban weighted-AMM implementation in the Stellar ecosystem. Comet code has been used as the Blend lending protocol's backstop pool; the BLND-USDC Comet pool was exploited on 2026-08-25 through a same-asset swap accounting bug, after which the affected backstop was paused. HEI therefore treats the entity as limited rather than active or dead while independent current exchange operation is not established.

Timeline

The BLND-USDC Comet AMM pool used by Blend's backstop was exploited through an accounting flaw that allowed same-asset USDC-to-USDC swaps to corrupt reserve calculations. SlowMist records approximately 717,518.92 USDC in losses. The affected backstop was subsequently paused while recovery and remediation work proceeded.

Notes and record state

Record note
The CometDEX GitHub organization and contract repository establish the protocol identity and Soroban AMM implementation, but a distinct current official web domain is not established, so GitHub is retained as evidence rather than modeled as the entity's official domain. Current Stellar ecosystem technical indexing states that the only mainnet Comet deployment is the Blend Backstop V2 pool and that Comet is not actively maintained as a standalone DEX. SlowMist records the 2026-08-25 exploit of the BLND-USDC pool at approximately 717,518.92 USDC. The affected backstop is currently paused/empty, but HEI does not infer terminal protocol death from one affected deployment or from the absence of a separately maintained frontend. No exact launch date is promoted without stronger evidence.
