DeFi rules are code. they do not change at midnight during a crash. but that advantage is only real if you can read those rules and act on them before events force you.
when each actor can monitor their specific exposure and react earlier. depositor withdraws before the run starts, curator adjusts before liquidators walk away, borrower unwinds before forced liquidation. the collective behaviour of the system becomes less fragile.
runs are shorter, clusters are smaller, cascades are shallower.
Vaults act like credit instruments, but DeFi risk behaves differently.
Anastasiia Zbandut (@mathy_research), Protocol Strategist at @BlockworksAdv showed how risk comes from execution, liquidity, and oracles.
Why understanding each risk component matters before stress hits:

1/ Exciting news, the ENA fee switch is coming!
We backtested the @ethena new design across 705 days of real protocol revenue, USDe supply and ENA prices to see what it would actually have done.
$52.7M a year of ENA buybacks in the months it would have been running. Here is how it works and what we found 🧵
