Introducing the First 25 Independent DeFi Yield Ratings

TL;DR;

  • Staking Rewards publishes its first 25 independent risk ratings for onchain yield protocols — the first rating system built specifically for DeFi yield.
  • Every rating is based solely on publicly available information. Protocols can challenge and improve their rating by submitting relevant data.
  • Ratings span 12 risk dimensions across lending, liquid staking, vaults, and more — from Aave (A) to HyperLend (CCC).
