# Stage 1 - SDR - Completed

Recovery of the first iteration of SmartDeFi from 2022.

{% hint style="success" %}
Stage COMPLETED - Funds Claims finished in Nov 2024.
{% endhint %}

### Recovery of safeguarded SmartDeFi projects

SDR was developed through the collective efforts of dedicated members of our DeFi community. This initiative arose from a crucial need to secure funds that were locked in previous SmartDeFi projects due to exploits. Motivated by a commitment to our users, we pursued a comprehensive solution to protect these assets.

The process was challenging and extended over 1.5 years, involving the replication of the exploit contract, extensive testing, integrating a user-friendly interface, and continuous enhancements. The FEG developers successfully devised a secure method to release these funds. This solution was incorporated into the SmartDeFi Recovery Tool (SDR), which was further validated by a third-party security audit to ensure its robustness and reliability.

To recover your locked funds from old safeguarded SD projects, refer to the comprehensive guides:\
\- [SDR for DEVs](/recovery/old-fegex-sd-recovery/stage-1-sdr/sdr-for-devs.md)\
\- [SDR for Investors](/recovery/old-fegex-sd-recovery/stage-1-sdr/sdr-for-investors.md)

### Essential Considerations for Fund Recovery&#x20;

It is important to clarify that the amount recovered through the SmartDeFi Recovery Tool (SDR) may not equate directly to the original locked amounts. Typically, the recovery might show a variance of 24% to 28%, and possibly greater for substantial amounts requiring multiple recovery attempts.

The recovery mechanism involves a flashloan strategy, leveraging 4.5 times the locked balance, which incurs fees associated with the flashloan from PancakeSwap (PCS) and additional costs due to BNB wrapping and unwrapping processes. For example, to recover 100 fBNB, a flashloan of 450 BNB is required, along with the associated blockchain fees.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Please be aware that this recovery initiative is specifically designed for previously locked SmartDeFi projects. These funds have been securely preserved. Following the successful recovery of these assets, attention will be directed towards addressing other SmartDeFi projects that were not locked, in subsequent phases.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.feg.io/recovery/old-fegex-sd-recovery/stage-1-sdr.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
