Risk allowance

DefiLab's yearly cost for the chance a protocol gets exploited.

Video coming soon

In plain words

We subtract a small yearly percentage from every yield so riskier pools don't look better just because they pay more: 1% for established protocols up to 10% for unproven ones, and more for loops. It's an estimate, not a prediction.

Worked example

On $10,000 for a year in a mature protocol (2%): $200.
