Flying Tulip’s Andre Cronje says circuit breakers can give teams time to respond during abnormal outflows, while Curve’s Michael Egorov warns they may create new human vulnerabilities.
Flying Tulip, a DeFi platform founded by Andre Cronje, has implemented a circuit breaker mechanism that can delay or queue withdrawals during abnormal outflows. The feature aims to slow fund exits when outflow capacity is exceeded, giving the team time to investigate suspicious activity. The implementation follows April DeFi losses exceeding $600 million, including $280 million from Drift Protocol and $293 million from Kelp, with researchers noting vulnerabilities increasingly tied to infrastructure and operational weaknesses rather than just smart contract bugs.
Flying Tulip said its withdrawal safeguard is designed to fail open, while a status page lets users monitor the system in real time.
