Moderate-to-high risk — wide multi-chain coverage and battle-tested Uniswap V3 codebase are offset by persistent governance instability, aggressive token emissions, and the security challenge of monitoring 40+ chain deployments
Risk Breakdown
Top Risks

Multi-chain deployment across 40+ networks fragments security attention and increases attack surface for under-monitored chains
Increased SUSHI emission rate (from 1.5% to up to 5% annually) dilutes token holders and may signal unsustainable incentive structure
