Oracle Risk

The pool uses Pragma's STRK/USD price feed. The Pragma oracle is a native Starknet oracle system that secures over USD 200m across all major projects on Starknet. It is fully decentralized in that it does not rely on off-chain infrastructure. Instead, data providers directly push prices on-chain and aggregation is done by the data consumer directly.

Smart contract risk

The Pragma smart contracts have been audited by Nethermind and both the source code and audit report are publicly available.

Price composition & source diversity

The oracle price is computed as the Median over the most recent data points available for the various Pragma providers.

Oracle fail-safes

N/A

Re7 Labs actively monitors the pool and oracle feeds and in case of an emergency pauses deposits and withdrawals.

Market Risk

STRK deposits can be borrowed with xSTRK as collateral.

However, the pool uses Pragma's STRK/USD price feed to price the xSTRK collateral. Liquidations can thus only be triggered by interest accruals exceeding the lending pair's liquidation loan-to-value ratio.

Market risk, the risk from bad debt incurred by failed liquidations, can thus be neglected. Instead, the main risk arises from xSTRK depegs.

The proposed rating is:

  • 🟩 Low

Collateral Risk

The pool enables borrowing of STRK with xSTRK collateral. The vSTRK-Re7xSTRK market thus inherits xSTRK's asset risk.

The proposed rating is:

  • 🟨 Medium
