Risk and research
Know the risk before you go onchain
Launch onchain knowing how your asset, market or mechanism behaves under stress, with limits set before a market event, not during one. Exchanges, protocols and foundations bring Gauntlet's research team in before they launch and keep it on after. We assess the assets, markets and mechanisms you plan to use, model how they behave under stress, and design the incentives and parameters around them. The same team has managed risk for DeFi's largest protocols since 2018.

What the research team does
Research from the team that curates strategies onchain every day

Before you list, accept or integrate an onchain asset, we review it the way we review every market we curate: collateral quality, liquidity depth, oracle design and the issuer's structure. You get the findings and the parameters that follow from them.
Read the methodology
Simulation models built on onchain and offchain data show how a market, mechanism or position holds up through volatility, liquidations and thin liquidity, so limits are set ahead of time rather than during a market event.

Coinbase brings us in to keep its Verified Pools competitive and healthy as they grow. We design launch parameters, liquidity programs and incentives that reach deep liquidity with less wasted spend, then monitor them after launch so underperforming programs get fixed quickly.
