How Equilibria Monitors 300+ Pools on Pendle in Real Time With Hypernative

Equilibria relies on Hypernative’s platform to safeguard over $125M in TVL by detecting and mitigating threats before they escalate.

Hypernative

Equilibria Finance plays an important role as a yield amplifier, governance amplifier, and value-capturing protocol enhancer in the $5B Pendle ecosystem. Hypernative enhances Equilibria's security framework with real-time threat detection and automated mitigation.‍

The Scope

  • $125M in TVL
  • 20%+ of locked $PENDLE
  • 329 pools
  • Across 7 chains
  • Monitoring critical function calls, ownership changes, flash loans, large transactions, and more

About Equilibria

Equilibria Finance, led by a team of experienced DeFi operators, is an easy-to-use platform for maximizing profits on Pendle Finance. Designed exclusively for $PENDLE holders and liquidity providers, Equilibria leverages the veToken/boosted yield model adopted by Pendle to provide a boosted yield for liquidity providers and extra reward to $PENDLE holders with a tokenized version of vePENDLE, ePENDLE. 

At Equilibria, ensuring the safety and stability of our project is a top priority. We knew we needed a powerful monitoring solution—and after exploring several options, Hypernative stood out. Their platform offered the technical depth we required, but just as importantly, their team brought a level of dedication and support that set them apart.

The Hypernative Offering

The Hypernative Platform gives its users the ability to detect in real time the overwhelming majority of risks across multiple chains with high accuracy and also the means to respond, with automated actions and alerts. Equilibria created an extensive monitoring setup that covers:

  • Critical Function Call Monitoring -- Continuously tracks the frequency of core function calls in key contracts such as pendleProxy and pendleBooster across all supported chains. Any abnormal surge (e.g., bot activity) will immediately trigger an alert.
  • Ownership Change Alerts -- Real-time detection of ownership changes in all core Equilibria contracts, effectively preventing unauthorized takeovers and governance attacks.
  • Flash Loan Detection -- Comprehensive monitoring of flash loan usage in major Equilibria contracts. If a transaction involves a flash loan, the system will instantly issue an alert to help mitigate potential threats.
  • ePENDLE Minting Security -- Strictly supervises the minting process of ePENDLE to ensure every issuance is backed by enough PENDLE. If the minting ratio is abnormal, the system will immediately alert, preventing unauthorized or excessive minting and protecting the protocol from dilution or abuse.
  • Large Transaction Monitoring -- Any single deposit or withdrawal of $100K or more will automatically trigger an alert, enabling rapid identification and response to abnormal fund movements and preventing abuse or attacks.
  • Reward Claim & Whitelist Enforcement -- Any single reward claim over $10K will be closely scrutinized. If the claimed reward token is not on the whitelist, the system will immediately alert to prevent unauthorized or malicious distributions.
  • New Pool Deployment Controls -- The creation of new Pendle pools is strictly regulated. If deployed by an entity other than the official Pendle Deployer, the system will immediately notify administrators and unverified pools will not be allowed into Equilibria.
  • Market Balance Consistency & Auto-Pause -- The protocol enforces a strict 1:1 match between the PENDLE market balance in pendleProxy and the total supply in RewardPool. Any discrepancy will trigger an alert and can automatically pause contracts to prevent exploitation.
  • Multisig Wallet Monitoring -- Real-time monitoring of all multisig wallet transaction initiations to prevent any unexpected or unauthorized actions, adding an extra layer of security for the protocol.

The Hypernative Impact

Equilibria has effectively used the platform to successfully detect a number of security and financial events, alerting the team to potential threats.

  • The large transaction monitoring watchlist created by Equilibria alerts the team to important moves by the protocol's whales:
    • 9 times for deposits on Arbitrum
    • 27 times for deposits on Base
    • 81 times for withdrawals on Ethereum 
    • 14 times for large transfers on Arbitrum 
  • Equilibria has also set up custom logic using an SDK that tracks new pool deployment and updates a watchlist. The setup has detected a number of unofficial pools, alerting the team to:
    • 3 pools on Sonic
    • 1 pool on BSC
    • 11 pools on Ethereum

With Hypernative, Equilibria gains active protection against cyber-attacks, continuous monitoring across smart contracts, wallets, and protocol layers, and instant alerts for any detected risks. These automated security mechanisms powered by Hypernative provide professional, robust, and real-time protection for Equilibria and its users, ensuring the protocol remains secure and stable at all times.
