Summer.fi
Lower risk — years of production use and solid automation, but unified leverage across three protocols creates correlated liquidation risk during crashes
Top Risks
1
Unified leverage automation across Aave, Maker, and Morpho creates correlated liquidation risk; a sharp price move triggers simultaneous deleveraging across all integrated protocols
2
Inherits security risks from three underlying lending protocols (Aave, Maker, Morpho); an exploit in any base layer compromises Summer.fi vaults built on that protocol
3
Formerly Oasis.app (original MakerDAO frontend), meaning legacy smart contract risk and tight coupling to Maker's economic model persist despite rebrand
Risk Breakdown
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Summer.fi safe to use?
Summer.fi receives a B- risk grade (31/100) from Hindenrank, where lower scores indicate lower risk. Lower risk — years of production use and solid automation, but unified leverage across three protocols creates correlated liquidation risk during crashes Originally the MakerDAO frontend (Oasis.app), now a one-stop interface for leveraged crypto positions across Aave, Maker, and Morpho. It holds $150M in deposits. Its B grade reflects battle-tested automation inherited from DeFi Saver, offset by the correlated risk of running leveraged positions across three protocols at once.
What are the main risks of using Summer.fi?
The key risks identified for Summer.fi are: (1) When ETH drops sharply, Summer.fi tries to deleverage your positions on Aave, Maker, and Morpho all at the same time. That concentrated sell pressure makes slippage worse and leads to bigger losses than if the positions were independent (2) A hack on any one of the three underlying protocols (Aave, Maker, Morpho) directly hits Summer.fi vaults. You are exposed to the weakest link across three separate smart contract systems (3) During a gas price spike, the automated protection that saves you from liquidation may cost too much to execute. Your position gets liquidated right when the protection was supposed to save it
