📢Keeping UP with EigenPhi
This week we invited the experts in the field of DeFi Risk to share their thoughts on topics including ‘How many types of oracle attacks?’ and ‘How to design an oracle-attack-resistant system?’. The recording was uploaded and pinned on the Twitter official account.
Bonq DAO protocol on Polygon, similar to MakerDAO's lending service, got rekt on Feb 1st, 2023. About $1.2 million worth of stolen assets have been converted. Once again, the protocol’s oracle became the vulnerability. Another example of trying and failing to conquer the Tokenomics Trilemma, which will be illustrated in the following research.
EigenPhi Research and Dr. Chuanwei Zou from Wanxiang Blockchain just released the research about tokenomic trilemma of the blockchain token dynamics. And we analyze why is it difficult for independently issued algorithmic stablecoins to maintain anchorage and avoid entering a death spiral.
The token dynamics of blockchain follow the same theory of a tokenomic trilemma: being difficult simultaneously to achieve three conditions of free tradability, anchored price, and independent issuance.
Current DeFi protocols may not place enough value on liquidity data. There is a real need for detecting risk precursors by monitoring early liquidity anomalies.
The trend of high leverage, liquidity risk, and maturity mismatch issues requires new solutions.
Blaming individuals for the risks in Ankr may be easier, but systemic risks remain unmitigated. The security and robustness cannot be built on the assumption that no one within the system will make a mistake.
