Convex Finance is a protocol designed to simplify Curve boosting. It lets Curve liquidity providers earn trading fees and claim boosted CRV without locking CRV themselves. Curve LP tokens can be deposited into Convex to receive enhanced CRV earnings and related liquidity mining rewards.
The protocol also supports CRV staking such that stakers receive trading fees and a share of boosted CRV received by liquidity providers. Curve DAO token stakers can earn additional boosted CRV and CVX tokens through Convex.
Risk Report
Cryptocurrency carries risk. Every project listed on this site, regardless of its score, operates in a volatile and largely unregulated market. Tokens can lose most or all of their value. A high score reflects lower structural risk based on the data we can measure. It does not mean a project is safe, that the price will hold, or that losses are unlikely. Always research independently and never commit money you cannot afford to lose.
Liquidity and market dynamics score 85 out of 100. Trading liquidity looks strong with a volume-to-market-cap ratio of 3.71% (score 90) and solid near-term depth, with $5,899,437 of 24h volume (score 69). Exchange listing data is robust, showing presence on 60 exchanges, with 28 in a green category and 27 in a yellow category (score 100).
Team credibility score 50 out of 100. While there are 7 audit firm(s) on record (score 100) and the deployer address is recorded (score 70), the team is anonymous (score 25) and there is no whitepaper available (score 10). Public development signals are mixed, with 0 commits in the last 4 weeks and 182 stars (score 38). Also, no deploy or genesis date is provided (asset age not available).
Social and behavioral risk score 62 out of 100. Social audience data indicates Twitter is linked but with limited snapshot analytics (score 25), while Telegram has 1,080 members (score 25 for social audience). On behavioral risk signals, there are 0 allegations, 0 bad press, and 0 regulatory items flagged, but 1 incident is recorded (score 90). Overall, this suggests some risk events exist despite a generally clean record.
Contract mechanics and safety score 95 out of 100. The contract is verified (score 100), shows no honeypot behavior (score 100), is open source (score 100), and has owner-privilege safety checks that pass (score 100). Balances appear locked (score 100), trading tax is 0% on both buy and sell (score 100), and a hard supply cap is defined at 100,000,000 (score 100). Minting is possible (score 50), but no hidden or harmful mechanics are indicated (score 100).
Holder distribution and concentration score 43 out of 100. Concentration is a key weakness, with the top 10 wallets holding 73.2% (flag noted, base subscore 45) and the top 50 wallets holding 87.7% (score 37). The largest non-filtered wallet controls 47.0% (score 21), meaning supply is meaningfully concentrated. Despite a large holder count of 30,539 (score 75), the concentration metrics keep this bucket below the midpoint.
Inherent crypto risk for this asset: even with strong contract and liquidity metrics, the token is classified as mintable (score 50) and holder concentration is elevated (top wallets hold large portions). That combination can increase event-driven price volatility and creates dependence on the future execution of minting and custody behavior, regardless of current safety checks.
