Sui-based Typus Finance plummets 35% after oracle exploit

Typus Finance, a real-yield infrastructure platform on Sui, has suffered an oracle exploit, with the Typus token plummeting 35% after the project halted its smart contracts.

Typus Finance announced on October 15, 2025, that its TLP contract had suffered an exploit due to an oracle vulnerability. In response, and in order to protect users, the platform paused all of its smart contracts.

On-chain security detector Extractor by Hacken estimates the exploit at approximately $3.4 million. The attacker bridged the stolen funds to Ethereum and swapped them into the DAI stablecoin.

Typus Finance offers a real-yield infrastructure solution on Sui. Users can earn yields via three flagship products around decentralized finance. Gamified DeFi products include DeFi Options Vaults, the principal-protected SAFU strategy, and Tails by Typus NFTs.

Typus Finance price dips 35%

As the team at Typus Finance shared the alert and said it was “actively investigating” amid emergency support from the Sui Foundation, market reaction was swift and downward.

While the dip aligned with declines across the broader cryptocurrency market and in the Sui (SUI) ecosystem, Typus’ drop came as traders reacted to news of the exploit. The token dipped from highs of $0.009 to $0.0055, risking a breakdown to all-time lows seen in March.

In May 2025, several Sui ecosystem tokens plummeted after attackers exploited vulnerabilities in decentralized exchange Cetus Protocol to steal over $200 million in assets. Cetus also paused the protocol’s smart contracts. 

Losses hit SUI, and tokens such as Lofi and Sudeng.
