RiskDAO primary sources — 2026-05-07

Core sources reviewed

Notes

  • The most explicit descriptive source in this pass was the B.Protocol documentation page, which presents RiskDAO as a service DAO launched to provide an open-source risk-assessment framework and audits for DeFi lending/borrowing protocols and L1 networks.
  • That page is important because it states the core methodology directly: use real-world liquidation data, asset price trajectories, and available DeFi liquidity to simulate bad-debt and liquidation outcomes, reducing reliance on hypothetical user-behavior assumptions.
  • The official/web-visible product surfaces show RiskDAO trying to distribute its work through repeatable interfaces: bad-debt dashboards, a Risk Level Index, protocol-specific risk-management dashboards, and an interest-rate simulator.
  • The GitHub organization confirms this is not just a research brand. Public repos include bad-debt frontend/backend code, leaderboard tooling, reports, weekly reports, simulation environments, and dashboard repositories.
  • The GitHub README material exposed in this pass was thin, so the strongest interpretive weight should stay on the docs page plus the visible product/dashboard and repo surface.

Open questions for a later pass

  • Pull more detail from the methodology PDF into a tighter explanation of how RiskDAO’s framework differs from Block Analitica- or Gauntlet-style risk stacks.
  • Compare the Risk Level Index / SmartLTV framing against other lending-risk taxonomies.
  • Identify which protocols most consistently externalize risk interpretation to RiskDAO tooling.
