      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;URGENT: Cannot Repay FXD Position Before June 1 Shutdown — Gas Estimation Failure on All Platforms&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am unable to repay my FXD stablecoin loan on Fathom.fi to recover my XDC collateral, and with the protocol shutting down on June 1 I am running out of time. I have tried every option I can think of and keep hitting the same wall.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What I'm trying to do:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Repay my FXD debt to close my CDP and unlock my XDC collateral before the June 1 protocol shutdown.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The error I get:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"Cannot estimate gas — transaction may fail or may require manual gas limit"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There is no way to bypass this error or manually enter a gas limit through any of the interfaces I've tried.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Everything I have tried:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SafePal mobile app (DApp browser)&lt;/strong&gt; — Connected to app.fathom.fi, attempted repayment. Gas estimation error appears with no option to override or set a manual gas limit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SafePal mobile with RPC switching&lt;/strong&gt; — Tried multiple XDC mainnet RPC endpoints (erpc.xinfin.network, rpc.xdc.org, rpc1.xinfin.network). Same error on all RPCs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Desktop browser via WalletConnect&lt;/strong&gt; — Opened app.fathom.fi on desktop Chrome, connected via WalletConnect scanning from SafePal mobile. Same gas estimation error. No way to manually set gas limit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Desktop browser direct&lt;/strong&gt; — Tried connecting directly on desktop. Same result — the error blocks the transaction and there is no input field to override the gas limit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;




&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What I need:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Either:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A working method to repay FXD and close my position before June 1, or&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Confirmation that the Emergency Shutdown (ShowStopper) mechanism will be triggered on June 1 and that I will still be able to redeem my XDC collateral after shutdown&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If anyone has successfully repaid an FXD position recently, or knows the correct contract address and function to call directly on XDCScan to bypass the frontend, please share. My XDC collateral is at risk of being permanently inaccessible.&lt;/p&gt;
