Investment risk
Baseline risk: All crypto-assets are risky, regardless of the type of token you hold. Here are some 'baseline' risks to be aware of before deciding to invest.
Investment risk: The performance of most crypto-assets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in crypto-assets.
Lack of protections: Crypto-assets are largely unregulated and neither the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) nor the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will protect you in the event something goes wrong with your crypto-asset investments.
Crypto-assets are complex: It may be difficult to understand the risks associated with a crypto-asset investment. Do your own research and if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket: Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments such as crypto-assets.
Defi tokens: Decentralised Finance (or 'DeFi') tokens (e.g. UNI, AAVE) are crypto-assets linked to financial applications and protocols built on decentralised blockchain technology.
Smart contract risk: DeFi relies heavily on smart contracts. Even a minor coding error or oversight can lead to a contract being exploited, potentially resulting in significant losses for DeFi tokens.
Regulatory risk: DeFi operates in a decentralized manner, often without intermediaries or financial crime controls. Regulatory bodies across jurisdictions might introduce new regulations impacting the use, value, or legality of certain DeFi protocols or assets. For example, the Perpetual Protocol (PERP) and Quickstop (QUICK) protocols may be accessible in jurisdictions where some or all the available activity may need to be regulated now or in the future. If a regulator deemed the activity to be in breach of regulation, this could seriously impact token value.
Rug-pulls / Exit scams: Some DeFi projects might be launched by anonymous or pseudonymous teams, increasing the risk of "rug pulls" where developers abandon the project and withdraw funds, leaving investors with worthless tokens.
Data/oracle risk: DeFi protocols often rely on external data sources or 'oracles'. Manipulation or inaccuracies in these data sources can lead to unintended financial outcomes within the protocols.
Protocol complexity: The complexity of some DeFi protocols can make it difficult for average users to fully understand the mechanisms and associated risks.

FAQ
Liquity (LQTY) is a decentralized borrowing protocol that operates on the Ethereum network. It utilizes a USD-pegged stablecoin known as LQTY. This protocol allows Ether holders to draw loans in the form of LQTY, with fees for loan issuance and redemption being adjusted algorithmically. Liquity does not run its own frontend, which means to interact with the protocol, users may choose from a list of third-party frontend operators. This approach contributes to the system's decentralization and resistance to censorship.
Liquity operates by allowing Ether holders to draw loans in the form of its stablecoin, LQTY. The protocol uses an algorithm to adjust the fees associated with loan issuance and redemption. Users interact with the protocol through third-party frontend operators, which adds to the system's decentralization. The protocol also includes a Stability Pool, where users can deposit LUSD to receive LQTY compensation. The revenue generated by a frontend grows proportionally with the total amount of LUSD deposited by its users to the Stability Pool.
Liquity aims to provide a platform for Ether holders to draw loans in the form of its stablecoin, LQTY. This can be particularly useful for individuals who wish to leverage their Ether holdings without selling them. Additionally, Liquity's Stability Pool provides users the opportunity to receive LQTY compensation by depositing LUSD. This can serve as an incentive for users to participate in the Liquity ecosystem, potentially leading to increased adoption and use of the LQTY stablecoin.
Liquity was founded by Robert Lauko, who also serves as the Head of Research. The protocol was developed and launched on the Ethereum mainnet, marking its entry into the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. Since its inception, Liquity aims to provide a decentralized borrowing platform for Ether holders, while also offering a Stability Pool where users can receive LQTY compensation. The protocol has undergone various updates and improvements, with the team working to enhance its functionalities and user experience.
