XOXNO runs overcollateralized lending on MultiversX and Stellar. MultiversX has not passed Ketju chain-level review and Stellar carries an active rejected verdict, so every venue on offer sits outside the approved settlement set.

The research file

Mechanism applicability

XOXNO Lending is ordinary overcollateralized pooled lending: suppliers fund a market, borrowers post collateral above the loan value, utilization sets the rate, and liquidation clears unhealthy positions. Nothing about that mechanism is unusual. What decides the record is that both deployments record balances, accrue interest, price collateral and settle withdrawals on chains outside the approved set.

Current observation and perimeter

The DefiLlama protocol API read on 2026-09-15 classified XOXNO Lending as Lending and reported approximately $1.39M across MultiversX, which DefiLlama labels Elrond, and Stellar, listed on 2026-09-02 with no recorded audit. The yield survey the same day observed ten pools, all on the MultiversX perimeter. MultiversX has no Ketju chain assessment at all and Stellar has an active rejected verdict, so both named deployments fail the same requirement.

Control and exit applicability

Validator operation, finality and emergency controls on each chain sit beneath the lending contracts, and neither chain has a favorable versioned assessment a lender could rely on. Utilization limits withdrawable supply in the usual way, and liquidation depends on each chain continuing to price and settle. No audit is recorded for the protocol.

Class rule

The rejected chain class is outside the approved structures, so every protocol in it is not approved until the rule changes. The rule is about the structure, not an adverse finding about this protocol, and it is not a client instruction. The events that would reopen it are listed with the memo.

Sources

The claims above trace to these. Where a number could not be independently verified, the thesis says so.

Inherited controls

The research above describes the protocol layer. Every position also inherits the asset it holds and the chain it settles on. The layer with the most administrative power sets the position’s effective control; that describes control, not quality or suitability.
