  • 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

  • Incurred $70M in bad debt from the Resolv protocol exploit in March 2026
  • Cross-protocol unified liquidity increases smart contract composability risk
  • Borrow rates fluctuate dynamically based on pool utilization
  • Vault depositors take on discretionary risk from third-party curator allocations
