Lista CDP

Rejected venues wait the longest for re-review; a rejection has to earn another look before the scheduled date.

Lista is a MakerDAO-style protocol on BSC where users post collateral such as BNB and yield-bearing tokens to mint lisUSD. DefiLlama records about $240.1M, almost all on BSC and predominantly slisBNB. Collateral ratios, interest and Dutch-auction liquidation are governed by Lista contracts and governance, but every position settles on a chain the registry rejects. This is not an individual flaw finding.

Kill criteria: the events that revoke this verdict
• Deploys meaningful liquidity on a chain the registry approves
• The BSC verdict changes

The research file

Reachability, not protocol quality

The rejection sits at the settlement layer, not the application: every state transition, oracle update, liquidation and withdrawal here ultimately depends on validator or sequencer operation, finality, bridge security and emergency controls the protocol team cannot neutralize by shipping audited contracts. Quoted protocol TVL and DEX depth can remain visible on-chain while operational exit is unavailable if the chain cannot finalize or the bridge route is impaired. The same protocol on an approved deployment would receive its own individual review.

Mechanism

Borrowers deposit approved collateral into Lista’s CDP module and mint lisUSD. Governance sets fixed interest and risk parameters; undercollateralized positions are sold through Dutch auctions with a liquidation penalty. The tracked balance is collateral, not cash available to every holder.

Control and evidence

Lista publishes contract addresses, source code and third-party audit reports. Governance can change collateral and economic parameters, while the protocol inherits BSC validator and upgrade control. No individual solvency or incident conclusion is necessary for this application.

Exit consequences

A borrower must repay lisUSD and interest to release collateral; falling below the minimum ratio triggers auction and penalty. lisUSD holders depend on peg liquidity and system collateral. All repayment, liquidation and withdrawal paths remain on BSC.

Why the class rule decides

The rejected-chain rule makes BSC settlement dispositive regardless of familiar CDP mechanics or audits. Review reopens with material deployment on an approved chain or a changed BSC verdict.

Inherited controls

The verdict above grades the protocol layer. Every position also inherits the asset it holds and the chain it settles on. The least safe layer sets the position’s grade, and the position table names which one that is.
