Lagoon

Lagoon receives a B- risk grade (33/100) from Hindenrank, where lower scores indicate lower risk. Moderate risk — proven vault infrastructure with curator trust dependency, balanced by modular architecture and ERC-7540 standard foundation. Lagoon is a vault infrastructure protocol using the ERC-7540 standard, allowing curators to deploy flexible on-chain yield strategies. With $113M TVL, its B- grade reflects a functional vault model with reasonable infrastructure, moderated by the trust required in individual curators who have broad discretionary authority over depositor funds.

The key risks identified for Lagoon are: (1) Each vault is managed by an independent curator with broad authority over how depositor funds are invested. The safety of your deposit depends on the competence and honesty of the specific curator managing the vault you choose. (2) Deposits and withdrawals are processed asynchronously by curators, meaning there may be delays between when you request a withdrawal and when you receive your funds. (3) The vault share pricing is determined by a Valuation Oracle role. If this pricing is inaccurate, you could receive less than the fair value of your deposit when withdrawing.
