Gimo Finance

Gimo Finance receives a B- risk grade (31/100) from Hindenrank, where lower scores indicate lower risk. Moderate risk — first-mover liquid staking on 0G with completed audit, but inherited framework dependencies and minimal scale on a young L1 chain. Gimo Finance is the first liquid staking protocol on the 0G chain, allowing users to stake their A0GI tokens and receive st0G, a liquid derivative that earns staking rewards while remaining usable in DeFi. Built on StaFi's Liquid Staking as a Service (LSaaS) infrastructure, Gimo completed a third-party security audit by Anatomi.st and features modular vaults that third parties can operate permissionlessly. With approximately $3M in TVL on a young mainnet, the protocol receives a B- risk grade reflecting its early-stage status and dependency on both the young 0G ecosystem and the StaFi framework.

The key risks identified for Gimo Finance are: (1) Gimo launched in late 2025 on 0G mainnet with limited operational history, making it difficult to assess real-world resilience under stress (2) The protocol depends on StaFi's LSaaS framework, so any vulnerability in that shared infrastructure could directly impact Gimo's staked assets (3) The 0G chain itself is a young ecosystem with unproven validator economics — infrastructure-level risks cascade to all staking protocols built on it
