V2 Pool Compromise

Definition

A V2 Pool Compromise refers to a security breach or exploit targeting a liquidity pool operating under a “Version 2” protocol standard, common in decentralized finance. This compromise typically results in the unauthorized loss or theft of digital assets held within that specific pool. Such incidents often stem from smart contract vulnerabilities, governance exploits, or external attack vectors. They highlight the inherent risks associated with early-stage or complex DeFi protocols.
