No direct exposure:

- Lido: stETH is not affected, and staking and withdrawals are running normally. Lido Earn has no direct exposure.
- Aave: contracts are unaffected and positions remain overcollateralized. As a precaution, all DAO-operated V3 and V4 markets are frozen. New deposits and borrows are paused, but withdrawals and repayments still work.
