The DeFi Protocol Risk Score Calculator evaluates the security and financial risk of decentralized finance protocols using weighted criteria including smart contract audit status, TVL history, team doxxing, insurance coverage, and historical exploit data.

Wzór

Risk Score = (Audit Score × 25%) + (TVL Stability × 20%) + (Team Score × 15%) + (Insurance × 15%) + (Track Record × 25%)

AS: Audit Score (0-100) — Quality and quantity of smart contract security audits
TS: TVL Stability (0-100) — Historical TVL trend and protocol maturity
TM: Team Score (0-100) — Team transparency, track record, and reputation
IS: Insurance Score (0-100) — Availability of smart contract insurance coverage

Przewodnik krok po kroku

1Score the protocol on each risk dimension from 0 (worst) to 100 (safest)
2Audit Score: Has the protocol been audited by reputable firms? How many audits?
3TVL and Track Record: How long has the protocol operated, and has it been exploited?
4Apply weights to compute an overall risk score from 0 (extreme risk) to 100 (battle-tested)

Rozwiązane przykłady

Wejście

Aave V3: 4 audits (95), $10B+ TVL 3 years (90), doxxed team (85), coverage available (80), no major exploits (95)

Wynik

Score = 95×0.25 + 90×0.20 + 85×0.15 + 80×0.15 + 95×0.25 = 90.25 — "Low Risk"

Wejście

New fork: 1 audit (50), $5M TVL 2 months (30), anon team (20), no insurance (10), untested (20)

Wynik

Score = 50×0.25 + 30×0.20 + 20×0.15 + 10×0.15 + 20×0.25 = 28.0 — "High Risk"

Częste błędy do unikania

✕Equating high TVL with safety — many exploited protocols had billions in TVL before the hack
✕Treating one audit as sufficient — complex DeFi protocols need multiple audits and ongoing monitoring
✕Ignoring governance risk — DAO proposals can change protocol parameters and introduce vulnerabilities

Często zadawane pytania

What makes a DeFi protocol safe?

Key safety indicators: multiple audits by top firms (Trail of Bits, OpenZeppelin, Consensys), >1 year operating without exploits, >$100M TVL with stable growth, doxxed/reputable team, active bug bounty program, and available insurance coverage.

How much has been lost to DeFi hacks?

Over $6 billion has been lost to DeFi exploits since 2020, according to Rekt News. The largest include Ronin Bridge ($624M), Poly Network ($611M), and Wormhole ($320M). Most exploits target bridges and new/unaudited protocols.

Should I buy DeFi insurance?

For deposits exceeding $50K in a single protocol, smart contract insurance (Nexus Mutual, InsurAce) costing 2-5% annually is worth considering. For smaller amounts, diversifying across 3-4 protocols provides similar risk reduction at lower cost.
