Yala's Stablecoin YU Depegs and Plunges to $0.47

BlockBeats News, November 17th, according to market data, Yala's stablecoin YU has suffered a depegging incident, dropping to $0.47. Yala stated yesterday that they have noticed the community's recent concerns and are actively investigating. More updates will be released soon.

On November 15th, the DeFi community YAM published a post stating that Yala's stablecoin YU had experienced suspicious activity. An address engaged in borrowing USDC at an extremely high interest rate on Euler but has not repaid the borrowed amount. An address closely associated with Yala has fully borrowed USDC and most of the YU funds from the Yala Frontier market on Euler. Despite the interest rate remaining high, there has been no repayment. Currently, the market's fund utilization rate has reached 100%, which means lenders cannot withdraw any liquidity. The Euler team has also set the borrowing limit on the Yala market on Frontier to zero. YAM additionally stated that currently, YU on Solana still maintains its pegged exchange rate, with nearly a million USDC in the liquidity pool available for price anchoring exit. This article serves more as a risk warning, and it is not yet certain whether Yala is truly in distress.
