Stream disclosed that an external manager had lost US$93M. While some speculated exposure to Balancer or similar protocols, the exact cause remains under investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the loss materialized, Stream acknowledged the damage, and Elixir\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/stream-finance-stablecoin-plunges-77-160515530.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/stream-finance-stablecoin-plunges-77-160515530.html\">which had lent US$68M to Stream<\/a>\u2014was significantly exposed. Legal disputes soon followed, with allegations of mismatches between reported on-chain exposure and real-world loan amounts, further muddying the risk picture. This event triggered panic, liquidity holes, and widespread losses across protocols connected to the Stream ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This wasn\u2019t a market crash. It was an operational risk event packaged as a yield product. And it begs the question: <strong>Should investors in DeFi be more cautious about where their yield comes from?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short answer: yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research alone is not enough. Yield protocols must be transparent about risk, and where they cannot, some form of <strong>underlying asset protection<\/strong> becomes essential\u2014especially for institutional or large-scale capital. This is where RWAs offer structural defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>Why Treasury Managers Saw This Coming<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeFi rebuilt yield. But it never rebuilt the controls. In traditional finance, market-neutral or cash-equivalent strategies are surrounded by layers of governance and legal guardrails:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fiduciary oversight<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Licensed fund managers with binding mandates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Regulated distributors and exchanges<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Daily NAVs, audited reporting, segregated custody<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strict limits on rehypothecation and delegation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeFi, for all its innovation, often shortcuts these protections. This is why Stream\u2019s failure felt inevitable to risk professionals. It represented a <strong>treasury instrument with no treasury governance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And this raises an uncomfortable but essential question for Web3 companies:<strong> Have digital asset treasuries drifted too far from the fundamentals?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>The Real Problem: Digital Asset Treasuries Are Over-Exposed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past three years, allocations across the ecosystem have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dlapiper.com\/en\/insights\/publications\/2025\/10\/key-capital-market-trends-digital-asset-treasuries\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.dlapiper.com\/en\/insights\/publications\/2025\/10\/key-capital-market-trends-digital-asset-treasuries\">skewed heavily toward crypto-native instruments<\/a>\u2014not only within digital asset treasuries (DATs), but also across the treasuries and reserves of exchanges, protocols, payment companies, and stablecoin issuers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Popular crypto-native instruments include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>BTC or ETH<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unregulated yield-bearing stablecoins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Leveraged lending\/borrowing vaults<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Market-neutral DeFi strategies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yield farming pools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Structured crypto yield products<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This concentration is risky\u2014not only due to volatility, but because many of these instruments sit on <strong>unregulated rails, experimental strategies, opaque execution, limited legal recourse, and single points of failure.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Treasuries must survive stress cycles. Crypto-native instruments often cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depeg events illustrated this clearly. During liquidity shocks, stablecoins slipped from their peg, liquidity evaporated, and treasuries panic-sold or moved prematurely\u2014incurring heavy losses. None of these risks were fully priced in beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Stream blowout didn\u2019t reveal something new.

Stream disclosed that an external manager had lost US$93M. While some speculated exposure to Balancer or similar protocols, the exact cause remains under investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the loss materialized, Stream acknowledged the damage, and Elixir\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/stream-finance-stablecoin-plunges-77-160515530.html\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/stream-finance-stablecoin-plunges-77-160515530.html\">which had lent US$68M to Stream<\/a>\u2014was significantly exposed. Legal disputes soon followed, with allegations of mismatches between reported on-chain exposure and real-world loan amounts, further muddying the risk picture. This event triggered panic, liquidity holes, and widespread losses across protocols connected to the Stream ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This wasn\u2019t a market crash. It was an operational risk event packaged as a yield product. And it begs the question: <strong>Should investors in DeFi be more cautious about where their yield comes from?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short answer: yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research alone is not enough. Yield protocols must be transparent about risk, and where they cannot, some form of <strong>underlying asset protection<\/strong> becomes essential\u2014especially for institutional or large-scale capital. This is where RWAs offer structural defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>Why Treasury Managers Saw This Coming<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeFi rebuilt yield. But it never rebuilt the controls. In traditional finance, market-neutral or cash-equivalent strategies are surrounded by layers of governance and legal guardrails:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fiduciary oversight<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Licensed fund managers with binding mandates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Regulated distributors and exchanges<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Daily NAVs, audited reporting, segregated custody<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strict limits on rehypothecation and delegation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DeFi, for all its innovation, often shortcuts these protections. This is why Stream\u2019s failure felt inevitable to risk professionals. It represented a <strong>treasury instrument with no treasury governance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And this raises an uncomfortable but essential question for Web3 companies:<strong> Have digital asset treasuries drifted too far from the fundamentals?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>The Real Problem: Digital Asset Treasuries Are Over-Exposed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past three years, allocations across the ecosystem have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dlapiper.com\/en\/insights\/publications\/2025\/10\/key-capital-market-trends-digital-asset-treasuries\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.dlapiper.com\/en\/insights\/publications\/2025\/10\/key-capital-market-trends-digital-asset-treasuries\">skewed heavily toward crypto-native instruments<\/a>\u2014not only within digital asset treasuries (DATs), but also across the treasuries and reserves of exchanges, protocols, payment companies, and stablecoin issuers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Popular crypto-native instruments include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>BTC or ETH<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unregulated yield-bearing stablecoins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Leveraged lending\/borrowing vaults<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Market-neutral DeFi strategies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yield farming pools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Structured crypto yield products<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This concentration is risky\u2014not only due to volatility, but because many of these instruments sit on <strong>unregulated rails, experimental strategies, opaque execution, limited legal recourse, and single points of failure.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Treasuries must survive stress cycles. Crypto-native instruments often cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depeg events illustrated this clearly. During liquidity shocks, stablecoins slipped from their peg, liquidity evaporated, and treasuries panic-sold or moved prematurely\u2014incurring heavy losses.
