A systemic DeFi vulnerability represents a weakness in one or more decentralized finance protocols that, if exploited, could trigger a cascading failure across a broader segment of the DeFi ecosystem. These vulnerabilities often arise from interconnectedness, shared liquidity pools, or dependencies on common oracle feeds. Such a flaw possesses the potential to destabilize multiple protocols simultaneously. It poses a significant risk to the entire decentralized financial landscape.

Experts frequently analyze the potential for contagion from stablecoin de-pegs or major protocol exploits. Regulators are also observing these risks closely, considering potential interventions to safeguard financial stability within the digital asset sector.
