Strengths and weaknesses
Pros

  • Independent security audits completed by six firms, including OpenZeppelin and Cyfrin
  • Supports over 100 collateral types, including yield-bearing tokens and institutional BTC
  • Built-in DEX routing allows looping, swapping, and repayment in single transactions
  • Isolated markets prevent bad debt in one asset from impacting other protocol pools
  • Over 30 independent smart contract audits and formal verification by Certora
  • Supported by $175M in institutional backing from Paradigm, a16z crypto, and Ribbit
  • Vault fee changes require an onchain timelock before curators can enforce them
Cons
  • High exposure to low-liquidity collateral assets has created systemic solvency concerns in past markets
  • Borrowing rates are variable and spike when pool utilization tightens
  • Centralized exchange liquidity for the DOLO token dropped following pairs delisting on Binance
  • Vault depositors take on discretionary risk from third-party curator allocations
  • Isolated pools fragment liquidity across individual debt and collateral pairs
  • April 2025 frontend bundler update caused an approval bug that exposed user funds
