Open-source pipeline + public dashboard tracking the on-chain recovery of the April 18, 2026 KelpDAO exploit ($292M drained via a forged LayerZero cross-chain message).
Live dashboard: observatory.indexing.co/kelpdao-recovery
- The 30,766 ETH frozen on Arbitrum by the Arbitrum Security Council on April 20, 2026
- Every signature on the Security Council multisig
- Every movement on the intermediary wallet holding the frozen funds
- Active Arbitrum + Aave + Mantle + Lido governance proposals tied to the recovery
- The DeFi United bailout — contributions arriving from Aave, KelpDAO, Lido, EtherFi, Stani Kulechov, Mantle, Golem Foundation, Ink Foundation, and others
The data is public, but no one is stitching it together. ZachXBT, PeckShield, and Arkham track pieces in real time on Telegram and X — there's no queryable, persistent, cross-protocol view that survives the news cycle. So we built one.
This is also a working demo of Indexing Co's blockchain data pipelines.
| Layer | Tech |
|---|---|
| Indexing | Indexing Co Pipes (event listeners + transformation functions) |
| Database | Neon Postgres (serverless, branched per pipeline) |
| Frontend | Next.js 15 (in indexing-co/observatory umbrella, deployed via Render) |
| Charts | indexing-co/Charting-Library |
| Contracts | Arbitrum Security Council multisig + intermediary wallet |

The dashboard UI lives at indexing-co/observatory — every Indexing Co incident tracker shares one Next.js app at observatory.indexing.co. This repo owns the pipes, the schema, and the research; the umbrella owns the routes (/kelpdao-recovery, /layerzero-dvn-census).
We index onchain data for a living. If you want:
- Real-time webhooks/alerts on this data
- A custom dashboard for your own protocol
- Help building cross-chain forensics or invariant monitoring
