 <p>Kannagi Finance is a decentralized finance (defi) platform that automates yield farming, allowing crypto investors to earn passive income via smart contracts. </p> 
 <p>It is built on the zkSync Era network, a layer 2 protocol that scales Ethereum with zero-knowledge (ZK) technology while maintaining Ethereum’s security and decentralization.</p> 
 <p>According to DeFiLlama, an analytics dashboard that tracks defi platforms, as of July 28, the total value locked (TVL) in Kannagi Finance was $2.13 million. </p> 
 <p>However, current records show a TVL of a mere $0.17, indicating a near 100% loss for users.</p>

 <p>This incident is the latest to affect the zkSync Era network, following the $3.4 million hack of EraLend on July 25. The EraLend exploit was the first on zkSync Era since its launch in March. </p> 
 <p>The layer-2 platform is popular. At one point in June, the its TVL surpassed the $500 million mark. </p> 
 <p>However, the network’s reputation seems to have suffered following the revelation of the suspected rug pull so soon after the EraLend hack. </p> 
 <p>At the time of writing, zkSync Era’s TVL stood at $154.59 million, according to DeFiLlama. The new numbers represent a more than $345 million drop from its all-time high level.</p>
