Fact Check
The statement is strongly supported by consistent and specific evidence from multiple high-authority sources. The core event, a '$93 million financial loss at Stream Finance,' is independently confirmed by several reputable outlets, including The Block and CoinDesk. The connection to Elixir is not merely implied but explicitly detailed. Multiple sources directly state that Elixir had significant exposure, specifically in the form of a large USDC loan to Stream Finance, with two sources quantifying it at $68 million. Furthermore, the 'impact' on Elixir is corroborated by the severe consequence of the protocol 'sunsetting' its deUSD stablecoin as a direct result of the Stream Finance loss. There are no contradictions among the provided sources; they reinforce each other to build a cohesive and credible account of the events. The convergence of specific details across multiple reputable news organizations provides a high degree of confidence in the statement's truthfulness.
Summary

SuiLend stated that Elixir has cleared all USDC debt linked to the $93 million Stream Finance loss, allowing withdrawals to resume in its isolated lending market. The incident’s largest exposure was to Elixir’s deUSD, which had constituted 65% of its reserves. Other SuiLend markets remained unaffected during the repayment process.
