Abstract Shutdown: Igloo's L2 Gives Users 70 Days to Withdraw Funds

  • —Withdrawal deadline is 15 December, 70 days after the shutdown announcement
  • —Igloo Inc. lost a double-digit million-dollar sum on Abstract over two years
  • —L2BEAT rates Abstract Stage 0: users cannot force transaction inclusion
  • —Abstract's secured value fell 44.5% in a week to about $30 million by 9 October
Why it matters: The case shows a centrally controlled L2 can be switched off by a company, leaving users without a regulated wind-down or recourse.
