Altura winds down USDT vault after msUSD-linked redemption rush
Altura has initiated a wind-down of its USDT stablecoin vault after a rapid redemption rush, triggered amid growing fears around the msUSD stablecoin’s stability. Reports say the vault processed about $8.5 million in USDT redemptions within 24 hours, after which Altura moved to shut down the vault [1] [2] [3].
According to coverage, Altura’s USDT vault had reached roughly $39 million in total value locked on HyperEVM prior to the withdrawal event. The msUSD depeg was linked to the termination of Accountable’s verification services, and one report states Altura used Accountable as a verification partner but had no direct financial ties to msUSD [2] [4].
The reported vault shutdown underscores how third-party verification disruptions can contribute to stress in DeFi stablecoin systems, as described by commentators following the episode [4].
