Moderate risk — ambitious Solana restaking play, but stacking restaking, a stablecoin, and an unbuilt blockchain multiplies the ways things can go wrong

Top Risks

1

Restaking creates leveraged security exposure: the same SOL collateral backs multiple AVS obligations, amplifying slashing contagion risk

2

sUSD stablecoin backed by tokenized Treasury Bills introduces RWA custodian dependency and redemption risk

3

InfiniSVM mainnet (Q1 2026) is an ambitious technical bet; failure or delay would undermine LAYER token value and ecosystem growth

Risk Breakdown

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Solayer safe to use?
Solayer receives a B- risk grade (35/100) from Hindenrank, where lower scores indicate lower risk. Moderate risk — ambitious Solana restaking play, but stacking restaking, a stablecoin, and an unbuilt blockchain multiplies the ways things can go wrong A Solana restaking protocol where you stake SOL to secure additional services and earn extra yield, holding $300M in deposits. It also offers sUSD, a stablecoin backed by US Treasury Bills, and is building a hardware-accelerated blockchain called InfiniSVM. Its C+ grade reflects multiple ambitious bets that are all unproven.
What are the main risks of using Solayer?
The key risks identified for Solayer are: (1) Your staked SOL backs multiple services at once. If one of those services gets hacked, your SOL gets slashed. The same money is on the line for several risks simultaneously, like co-signing multiple loans (2) The sUSD stablecoin depends on a third-party holding real Treasury Bills. If that custodian goes bankrupt or gets frozen by regulators, sUSD loses its $1 backing (3) The InfiniSVM blockchain (targeting 1 million transactions per second) has not launched yet. If it fails to deliver, the LAYER token loses its main growth story and could crash
