Radiant Capital protocol
Overview
Radiant Capital was a decentralized cross-chain lending and borrowing protocol that used LayerZero for cross-chain messaging, letting users supply and borrow assets from a pool spanning multiple chains. The protocol featured its own token, RDNT, used for governance and platform incentives.
Status (as of 2026-07-15): Winding down. After an October 2024 exploit of roughly $50 million (attributed to North Korea's Lazarus Group), Radiant's DAO announced on June 1, 2026 that it was ceasing all future development and entering a maintenance state, with borrow caps set to zero and RDNT incentives halted while users repay and withdraw through the end of 2026.
