Every smart contract is reviewed by three independent firms before it reaches the main network.
The protocol never holds or controls funds. Withdrawal is always possible — even if the website goes offline.
Any parameter change passes through a 48-hour delay, giving the community time to review and react.
A share of protocol fees builds a reserve against extraordinary events — $40M is already set aside.
A standing reward programme for white-hat researchers — vulnerabilities are found before attackers can use them.
Network privacy by default: your IP address is never exposed while interacting with the protocol.
