RISK MODEL
Understand the risks before you invest
TL;DR
Stone Vault is safer than most DeFi because:
┌───┐ │ █ │ ├───┤ │░░░│ └───┘
No admin keys = no rug pulls
┌─────┐ │ ▓▓▓ │ │ ▓◯▓ │ └─────┘
Only battle-tested protocols
◆ ◆◆◆ ◆◆◆◆◆ ◆◆◆ ◆
Only uncensorable stablecoins
But remember: DeFi always has risks. Never invest more than you can lose.
LOW RISK: WHAT WE PROTECTED
[+]
Rug Pull Protection
Contract is immutable. No one can change the code or steal funds.
[+]
Censorship Protection
Only stablecoins without blacklist functions (DAI, LUSD, crvUSD).
[+]
Diversification
Funds split across 3 protocols. One failure won't lose everything.
MEDIUM RISK: PROTOCOL RISKS
[!]
Smart Contract Risk
Bugs in Spark, Aave, or Curve could cause losses. These protocols have $10B+ TVL and years of track record, but bugs are always possible.
[!]
Stablecoin Depeg
If DAI, LUSD, or crvUSD loses its $1 peg, your deposit value decreases. Historical depegs have been temporary (hours/days).
[!]
Yield Variance
APY changes based on market demand. High demand = lower rates.
SMALL DEPOSIT FEE
[!]
Entry Fee: ~5% on deposits under minimum
The vault has a minimum effective deposit threshold. If you deposit a small amount (less than ~$100 equivalent), rounding and virtual offset mechanics may result in receiving fewer shares than expected — effectively a ~5% loss. This protects the vault from inflation attacks. For optimal results, deposit larger amounts.
