Arbitrum STIP Risk Analysis | Insights & Key Findings
Over the past 10 weeks, Chaos Labs has performed a deep analysis of three protocols’ STIP programs from a risk and efficiency point of view. This post focuses on aggregating the learnings from these case studies into a consolidated review to help delegates and protocols improve their decision-making in the future.
Arbitrum STIP Risk Analysis | Case Study #3: Pendle Finance
Chaos Labs is pleased to share a blog post detailing our third case study for the Arbitrum Research & Development Committee (ARDC): Pendle Finance. This is the third and final case study of a three-part series that entails an in-depth analysis of the risk and efficiency of the Arbitrum STIP on three major protocols, the third of which is Pendle Finance. As requested by the DAO advocate for the ARDC, L2BEAT, Chaos Labs has been conducting case studies on STIP recipients. This case study provides an in-depth analysis of the Arbitrum STIP program’s impact on Pendle Finance, focusing on its efficiency and associated risks. This analysis is part of a broader series that evaluates the STIP program across three major protocols.
Arbitrum STIP Risk Analysis | Case Study #2: Silo Finance
Chaos Labs is pleased to share a blog post detailing our second case study for the Arbitrum Research & Development Committee (ARDC): Silo Finance. This is the second case study of a three-part series that entails an in-depth analysis of the risk and efficiency of the Arbitrum STIP on three major protocols, the second of which is Silo Finance. As requested by the DAO advocate for the ARDC, L2BEAT, Chaos Labs has been conducting case studies on STIP recipients. This case study provides an in-depth analysis of the Arbitrum STIP program’s impact on Silo Finance, focusing on its efficiency and associated risks. This analysis is part of a broader series that evaluates the STIP program across three major protocols.
Arbitrum STIP Risk Analysis | Case Study #1: Vertex
As part of our recent election as the Risk Member on the Arbitrum Research & Development Committee (ARDC), Chaos Labs is excited to share a blog post detailing our first case study for the ARDC: Vertex. This is the first case study of a three-part series that entails an in-depth analysis of the risk and efficiency of the Arbitrum STIP on three major protocols, the first of which is Vertex. As requested by the DAO advocate for the ARDC, L2BEAT, Chaos Labs has begun conducting case studies on STIP recipients. This case study provides an in-depth analysis of the Arbitrum STIP program’s impact on the Vertex Protocol, focusing on its efficiency and associated risks. This analysis is part of a broader series that evaluates the STIP program across three major protocols. We will begin by introducing the STIP program and giving an overview of Vertex, followed by our team's full case study.
