Exiting protocol positions

A position in a DeFi protocol lives inside the protocol’s contracts, not in your account. The network does not check it, so it will let you merge an account that still has funds deposited. Nothing fails and nothing warns you. The funds stay in the contracts, under an account that no longer exists. Getting them back means re-funding the address and unwinding by hand. LumenWipe prevents this by exiting positions first.

How an exit works

For each position, LumenWipe reads the exact on-chain state, simulates the exit, and shows you the result before you sign. What comes out lands in a trustline that the later steps convert to XLM, so the funds continue toward the merge. Positions run before every classic step, and each is its own transaction. A repay can only spend what is not held back by an open offer or the minimum reserve.

​

When an exit is blocked

A position that cannot be closed safely is reported as a blocker with an explanation. It is never skipped.

• A debt your spendable balance cannot cover blocks with the exact shortfall. Add XLM or repay part of the debt elsewhere, then analyze again.
• An unknown contract version is flagged for manual review. LumenWipe will not build an exit against an interface it has not verified.
• FxDAO on mainnet has stopped operating, so its exit is blocked with an explanation instead of attempting a transaction that cannot succeed.
• Incomplete position data flags the affected position. LumenWipe builds no exit from partial data.

If the position data provider is unavailable, the classic flow still works, and you see a warning to check your positions manually.
