Concentration Risk

DeFi tokens
Decentralised Finance ("DeFi") tokens are crypto assets built on decentralised blockchain technology for financial applications or protocols. Risks linked to DeFi tokens include:
Enterprise Risk
Interactions between multiple DeFi protocols create a situation where a vulnerability or breakdown in one protocol can trigger a cascading effect, affecting other interconnected platforms.
Technology Risk
DeFi protocols frequently depend on external data sources or oracles, and any tampering or inaccuracies in these data streams can result in a lack of trust and reliability in the protocols.
Regulatory Risk
Governments and regulatory bodies around the world can introduce new regulations or ban certain aspects of the cryptocurrency market, affecting its legality and viability, which could affect token liquidity and/or value.
Legal Risk
Certain tokens may be used for operating a decentralised exchange platform which may contain additional risks:
- The platform may allow users to participate who have not been vetted or verified and therefore expose the possibility that users are interacting with sanctioned entities.
- The platform may be accessible in jurisdictions where some or all the exchange activity should be regulated. If a local regulator deemed the platform activity to be in breach of local regulation, they may request cessation or termination of the service which could affect token liquidity and/or value.
Market Risk
Given their novelty, the evolving technology involved and lack traditional asset structure, valuing crypto assets can be very difficult or impossible. This means valuations are determined by demand that is at risk of manipulation in various ways.

Dive deeper into Curve DAO Token
Curve Finance is a decentralized exchange (DEX) for stablecoins, utilizing an automated money maker (AMM) for liquidity management. Its unique approach of focusing exclusively on liquidity pools for stablecoins and wrapped assets like wBTC and tBTC enabled it to stand out. By the latter half of 2020, Curve Finance had become a leading decentralized finance (DeFi) player. Further emphasizing its commitment to decentralization, it launched its own decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) in August, introducing CRV as its native cryptocurrency.
What is Curve DAO
Curve DAO, developed by Curve Finance, is a project that empowers the collective decision-making of its community. This DAO is built using Ethereum’s Aragon tool, connecting several smart contracts essential for depositing liquidity. CRV token holders can vote on project-related matters or by suggesting changes.
Curve Finance team
Curve Finance was founded by Michael Egorov, who also serves as its CEO. A seasoned player in the crypto space, Egorov co-founded NuCypher in 2015 and has been instrumental in various other crypto ventures, including a decentralized bank known as LoanCoin.
How does Curve DAO work
Governance token CRV facilitates community-driven decision-making. Tokens are distributed based on liquidity contribution and duration of holding, ensuring a fair system where greater CRV holdings translate to more significant voting power. This incentivized model, which encourages financial commitment, quickly became a DeFi standard, bolstering Curve's standing as a DEX and fostering its DAO community's growth.
CRV tokenomics
Introduced on August 13, 2020, CRV came into prominence during the DeFi boom. Mirroring industry trends, Curve Finance transitioned its community governance to a DAO structure. Of the 3.30 billion CRV tokens minted, only 871.7 million are circulating as of July 2023. CRV’s primary function is to facilitate community governance, although staking and liquidity mining are also notable use cases for the token.
CRV distribution
CRV is distributed the following way:
- 62 percent to liquidity providers
- 30 percent to shareholders
- 3 percent to the project's employees
- 5 percent reserved for the community
