Gauntlet Restricts V1 Vault Deposits After Reported op-reth Vulnerability

Risk curator Gauntlet has restricted deposits into its V1 vaults after a reported vulnerability in op-reth, the Optimism execution client. Gauntlet is also pausing new allocations and cutting exposure to LayerZero-bridged assets, though it says no exploit has been reported to its knowledge. Traders should watch for contagion risk across Optimism-based DeFi and bridged-asset positions, since a client-level flaw could affect many protocols at once.
