Solana-based crypto lending protocol Marginfi is undergoing some major turbulence with its creator Edgar Pavlovsky announcing his departure from the project on Wednesday, April 10, citing some internal disagreements. As a result, the outflows from Marginfi have skyrocketed to more than $214 million from one of the most popular DeFi protocols on Solana.
Meanwhile, the amount of funds secured on Marginfi has decreased to $514 million. This is a significant drop from the $734 million reported just a few days ago and less than the $811 million recorded in April. In a forceful statement on the X platform, Pavlovsky expressed:
“My lawyers are still figuring out the details, but I want to make it clear that material things like tokens or money don’t matter to me. This is a reflection of my values. My financial situation has been struggling recently, and this development brings me back to square one. However, if you have experience in this industry, you’ll know that bouncing back from zero isn’t uncommon.”
MarginFi confirmed that Pavlovsky was leaving the company, with no expected impact on their offerings or day-to-day activities. According to MarginFi’s statement, “This decision stems from internal operational disputes and personal reasons of his own, and we acknowledge and respect his need for privacy.”
Amidst the ongoing Solana network congestion and public disputes among parties, infighting has surfaced. Developers have been trying to find a resolution, but unfortunately, the situation has escalated into a blame-shifting scenario.
SolBlaze Accused Marginfi of Acting in Bad Faith
Solana’s liquid staking protocol SolBlaze has accused Marginfi of acting in bad faith by failing to distribute tokens to users as per SolBlaze’s depositor reward guidelines. SolBlaze incentivizes BlazeStake Solana or Blaze token holders and depositors by rewarding them with tokens referred to as “emissions”, a benefit also extended to depositors on Marginfi.
Moreover, SolBlaze has alleged that Marginfi disposed of tokens from SolBlaze, which were originally intended for governance purposes. After Pavlovsky stepped down, SolBlaze reported that they had rectified problems with Marginfi’s team. Subsequently, SolBlaze announced that Marginfi had admitted to not distributing emissions allocations for a period of eight days. As a remedy, Marginfi promised to repay affected users for the missed allocations.
Instead of that, Solend, a rival to Marginfi, is trying to lure users following recent withdrawals by distributing airdrops based on the amount transferred to their system.
