AstroportMicro-cap
Moderate risk — battle-tested AMM with innovative PCL pools and strong Cosmos ecosystem presence, but declining TVL and multi-chain fragmentation limit growth potential.
Top Risks
1
Astroport survived the Terra/LUNA collapse but TVL has declined dramatically from peak levels, raising questions about long-term viability across its multi-chain deployment
2
Multi-chain deployment across Neutron, Terra2, Injective, and Osmosis fragments liquidity and increases operational complexity and attack surface
3
Passive Concentrated Liquidity (PCL) pools use automated rebalancing algorithms that could misbehave during extreme volatility or thin liquidity conditions
Risk Breakdown
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Astroport safe to use?
Astroport receives a B- risk grade (32/100) from Hindenrank, where lower scores indicate lower risk. Moderate risk — battle-tested AMM with innovative PCL pools and strong Cosmos ecosystem presence, but declining TVL and multi-chain fragmentation limit growth potential. Astroport is a multi-chain DEX operating across the Cosmos ecosystem on Neutron, Terra2, Injective, and Osmosis. It supports multiple pool types including standard AMM, stableswap, and a novel Passive Concentrated Liquidity (PCL) that automatically optimizes liquidity around current prices. Originally launched on Terra, Astroport survived the LUNA collapse and migrated its governance to Neutron.
What are the main risks of using Astroport?
The key risks identified for Astroport are: (1) TVL has declined dramatically from its Terra-era peak — the protocol is spread thinly across four chains, and liquidity may be too fragmented for competitive trading (2) The PCL automated liquidity pools use a novel algorithm that may underperform during extreme market volatility, resulting in higher losses for liquidity providers (3) Astroport's history with the Terra/LUNA collapse demonstrates ecosystem dependency risk — the protocol survived but lost the majority of its TVL and users
What is Astroport's risk score breakdown?
Astroport scores 32/100 across eight risk dimensions: Mechanism Novelty: 3/15, Interaction Severity: 5/20, Oracle Surface: 2/10, Documentation Gaps: 2/10, Track Record: 9/15, Scale Exposure: 3/10, Regulatory Risk: 2/10, Vitality Risk: 6/10. The highest risk area is Track Record at 9/15.
How does Astroport compare to other DEX protocols?
Among 111 rated DEX protocols on Hindenrank, Astroport ranks #52 by safety (lowest risk score = safest). Its 32/100 risk score and B- grade place it in the middle tier of DEX protocols.
Has Astroport ever been hacked or exploited?
Astroport scores 9/15 on the Track Record risk dimension, indicating some history of security incidents or exploits. Higher scores reflect more severe or frequent incidents. Review the full risk report for details.
