Risk

Vets every position. Caps every exposure.

Risk is vildX's compliance and credit layer. Every position from Yield Discovery passes through a hard-coded checklist — audits, oracle quality, TVL floor, depeg history, custody model, per-position and per-protocol caps. Nothing reaches the Allocation engine without Risk's green light.

What it does

The capabilities this engine contributes to the vildX system.

Audit verification

Confirms each position has at least two reputable smart-contract audits, with no unresolved high-severity findings.

Oracle review

Validates oracle source, freshness, manipulation resistance, and depeg history before allowing the position into a vault.

TVL & liquidity floor

Requires minimum TVL ($25M for Prime, $5M for Frontier, $1M for Boost) and minimum daily volume for safe exit.

Per-position caps

Hard-coded maximum allocation per strategy, per protocol, and per chain — no single position can sink a vault.

Continuous monitoring

Tracks audit status, oracle health, TVL changes, and stress events daily. Failed checks trigger automatic de-allocation.

How it works

Step-by-step flow inside this engine — from input signals to handoff.

  1. 1Receive candidate list from Engine 01 (Yield Discovery).
  2. 2Run the full risk checklist against each position — audits, oracles, TVL, depeg, caps.
  3. 3Reject anything that fails. Surface concerns to the Curator team for review.
  4. 4Pass the cleared list to Engine 03 (Allocation) with risk-tier metadata attached.
  5. 5Continuously monitor live positions and trigger Engine 04 (Rebalance) on any failure.
