Fact Check
The claim is highly accurate regarding the entities (Lombard, LayerZero, zkSync), the timeframe (March 16-20, 2026), and the approximate total value. While individual source valuations vary slightly due to market price fluctuations (ranging from ~$87.5M to ~$91.3M for the three primary tokens mentioned), the $89.5M figure is a reasonable middle-ground estimate consistent with the data from PANews and BlockBeats.
