Lido Lend Plan Would Block Repayments, Not Interest

Lido DAO is voting on an emergency pause mechanism for its lending markets that would halt repayments, lender withdrawals, and liquidations rather than merely freezing interest accrual. A separate governance proposal would let the pause bypass its automatic expiry, extending it beyond the initially coded time limit. The design matters because lenders could be locked out of exiting positions during a crisis even as borrowing costs stop compounding, altering the risk profile of Lido-linked lending. Watch the vote outcome and whether the expiry-removal mechanism passes alongside it, since together they determine how long a paused market could stay frozen.
