THE STORY · FACTUAL SUMMARY

Lume's official website carries a shutdown notice setting 30 October as the end of app access. It says wallet tokens remain on Solana while access through Lume ends. The notice remains visible alongside older marketing.

The team asked customers to close perpetual positions, withdraw their Leverage Account balance, move wallet assets and save their private key before the deadline. That deadline has passed; this is not confirmation that customers completed those steps.

Lume says it did not hold wallet funds. It distinguishes its interface from the assets: xStocks are issued by Backed Finance, and Ondo tokens by Ondo Global Markets. The notice says a saved key enables access to the same on-chain wallet through a compatible app.

We have not verified current login availability, leverage withdrawals or support-led recovery. The surviving marketing page does not establish that those services continue. Retaining an asset and retaining access to it are different problems. Never give a private key to someone offering recovery help.

HIS MAJESTY’S ASSESSMENT · OPINION
The app can retire before the assets do. A useful reminder to know where one's belongings are, even when the concierge is exceptionally charming.
