Aura FinanceMicro-cap

Aura Finance receives a B risk grade (27/100) from Hindenrank, where lower scores indicate lower risk. Moderate risk — 3+ years of clean operation with well-tested mechanisms, but total dependency on Balancer means you inherit all of Balancer's risks A yield aggregator built on top of Balancer that boosts your returns by accumulating voting power in Balancer's governance. It manages $117M in deposits with 3+ years of clean operation. Its B grade reflects proven mechanisms and long track record, offset by complete dependency on Balancer's security.

The key risks identified for Aura Finance are: (1) All your money in Aura is deposited into Balancer pools. When Balancer was hacked for $128M in November 2025, Aura depositors in affected pools lost funds too. (2) The protocol depends on BAL token emissions for yield. As emissions decline over time, your returns will decrease unless fee revenue grows to compensate. (3) Concentrated voting power could redirect rewards away from your pool toward pools that benefit insiders.
