Lido Finance, a leading decentralized finance protocol managing over $23 billion in staked assets, announced an emergency vote by its DAO to replace a compromised oracle node linked to Chorus One.

Despite the breach, the protocol remains secure, and stakers are unaffected.

Lido emphasized the robustness of its oracle system and the successful response by its developers to mitigate risks promptly.
