When Lido's LEND emergency stop is triggered, block redemptions and staking withdrawals and reflect interest.

Lido DAO contributors on Nov. 9 posted a final governance proposal for Lido Lend that splits emergency risk controls into a market freeze and a broader controller pause, though neither has yet been triggered. A market freeze would block new borrowing and collateral activation and restrict collateral withdrawals on positions with outstanding debt, while repayments, liquidations and supplier withdrawals remain open. The emergency controller pause is wider, halting repayments, liquidations, settlements and supplier withdrawals routed through the affected market's controller. Under a pause, interest accrued during the halt would be applied once operations resume. The design matters because it defines how Lido Lend's lending market would keep debt and interest accounting intact during a crisis, and the next thing to watch is whether the proposal passes governance and how the two-tier mechanism is implemented.
