Over $500,000 in left-behind assets discovered before shutdown; Balancer has notified relevant institutions to claim

Odaily reports: Balancer has announced that during an inventory of DAO assets, it discovered over $500,000 in assets and unclaimed rewards left in the protocol by external users and institutions, involving institutions such as Ethena and Gauntlet. Some liquidity assets in Balancer v3 use Vault internal accounting and cannot be displayed properly on block explorers or asset management tools such as DeBank; in addition, some users still have unclaimed rewards after withdrawing liquidity from v2. Balancer has notified the relevant asset owners, and some institutions have begun withdrawals. Previously, the Balancer community approved a proposal to gradually wind down the protocol's operations, and some pools will switch to withdrawal-only mode on October 30.
