Blur to Disable NFT Marketplace Frontend as Yuga Labs Executive Warns on Contracts

  • Blur will disable its website frontend on Nov. 12 while its on-chain marketplace protocol remains operational.
  • Blend will stop matching new loans on Nov. 12, while reports put NFTs authorized to Blur contracts at at least $10 million to tens of millions of dollars.
  • Quit found no current exploitable flaw but urged users to revoke approvals because Blur’s upgradeable contracts could potentially be modified maliciously.

Blur will disable its NFT marketplace website frontend on Nov. 12 while keeping its on-chain trading protocol operational, and BLUR token holders will retain control of protocol fee settings. Its NFT-backed lending protocol Blend will stop matching new loans that day, requiring borrowers to repay or allow loans to default, with a separate withdrawal tool planned for deposited assets. Quit, Yuga Labs’ vice president of blockchain business, said he found no current exploitable vulnerability but warned that Blur’s upgradeable contracts could be changed maliciously and that asset security depends on the operational security of a team that appears to be disbanding. He urged users to revoke approvals through tools such as revoke.cash. Reports put the NFTs still authorized to Blur contracts at at least $10 million to tens of millions of dollars. BLUR fell more than 20% to about $0.015, reducing its market capitalization to roughly $44 million.
