Investment Risk

Baseline risk

All crypto-assets are risky, regardless of the type of token you hold. Here are some ‘baseline’ risks to be aware of before deciding to invest.

Investment risk: The performance of most crypto-assets can be highly volatile, with their value dropping as quickly as it can rise. You should be prepared to lose all the money you invest in crypto-assets.

Lack of protections: Crypto-assets are largely unregulated and neither the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) nor the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) will protect you in the event something goes wrong with your crypto-asset investments.

Crypto-assets are complex: It may be difficult to understand the risks associated with a crypto-asset investment. Do your own research and if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket: Putting all your money into a single type of investment is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments such as crypto-assets.

Defi tokens

Decentralised Finance (or ‘DeFi’) tokens (e.g. , ) are crypto-assets linked to financial applications and protocols built on decentralised blockchain technology.

Smart contract risk: DeFi relies heavily on smart contracts. Even a minor coding error or oversight can lead to a contract being exploited, potentially resulting in significant losses for DeFi tokens.

Regulatory risk: DeFi operates in a decentralized manner, often without intermediaries or financial crime controls. Regulatory bodies across jurisdictions might introduce new regulations impacting the use, value, or legality of certain DeFi protocols or assets.

For example, the Perpetual Protocol (PERP) and Quickstop (QUICK) protocols may be accessible in jurisdictions where some or all the available activity may need to be regulated now or in the future. If a regulator deemed the activity to be in breach of regulation, this could seriously impact token value.

Rug-pulls / Exit scams: Some DeFi projects might be launched by anonymous or pseudonymous teams, increasing the risk of "rug pulls" where developers abandon the project and withdraw funds, leaving investors with worthless tokens.

Data/oracle risk: DeFi protocols often rely on external data sources or ‘oracles’. Manipulation or inaccuracies in these data sources can lead to unintended financial outcomes within the protocols.

Protocol complexity: The complexity of some DeFi protocols can make it difficult for average users to fully understand the mechanisms and associated risks.

Wrapped tokens

Wrapped crypto-assets (e.g. , ) (often referred to as ‘wrapped tokens’) are tokenised representations of other crypto-assets. They are typically created to facilitate compatibility and interaction across different blockchain protocols.

Smart contract risk: Wrapped tokens rely on smart contracts to ensure their value remains pegged to the underlying asset. These contracts could have vulnerabilities or flaws that can be exploited, potentially leading to a loss of funds.

Collateral risk: The value of a wrapped token is typically backed by an equivalent amount of the underlying asset. If the mechanisms ensuring this collateralization fail, the wrapped token's value might not be preserved.

Custodial risk: The underlying assets for wrapped tokens may be held in custody by a third party. If this party becomes insolvent, mismanages the assets, or is subjected to fraud or hacking, the value of the wrapped token might be jeopardized.

Bridging risk: Wrapped tokens are often used to bridge assets between different blockchain ecosystems. The integration layers that facilitate these bridges might suffer from technical issues, hampering the ability to transfer or utilize the tokens as intended.

Pricing disparity: In certain situations, the price of the wrapped asset and its underlying asset might diverge due to market inefficiencies or liquidity issues.

About Marinade Staked SOL

mSOL tokens represent SOL tokens staked using the Marinade.Finance liquid staking protocol. Marinade.Finance users receive mSOL tokens that accrue staking rewards upon staking SOL tokens. Since mSOL tokens are liquid, they can be used to participate in DeFi across the Solana ecosystem.

Marinade Staked SOL (MSOL) is a product of Marinade.finance, a liquid staking protocol built on the Solana blockchain. MSOL is a tokenized representation of staked SOL tokens within the Marinade ecosystem. Users stake their SOL tokens with Marinade, which employs automated staking strategies to delegate the SOL to validators. In return, users receive MSOL tokens that they can utilize within the decentralized finance (DeFi) space or swap back to original SOL tokens at any time. The protocol aims to enhance the utility of SOL tokens by allowing them to be staked and used simultaneously, thereby contributing to the decentralization of the Solana network.

Marinade Staked SOL operates through a process known as liquid staking. Users stake their SOL tokens with Marinade, which then delegates these tokens to a pool of high-performing Solana validators using an automated staking strategy. In return, users receive an equivalent value of MSOL tokens. The price of MSOL increases relative to SOL with each Solana epoch as inflation rewards are accrued into the underlying staked SOL in the Marinade stake pool. Users can withdraw their SOL by unstaking and waiting for the unlock period or, if liquid staking, immediately with a fee. MSOL tokens can also be exchanged directly for SOL on secondary markets at the current market rate.

Marinade Staked SOL (MSOL) seeks to provide users with the ability to participate in the DeFi space while simultaneously staking their SOL tokens. This dual functionality aims to increase the utility and flexibility of SOL tokens. Users can stake their SOL tokens in exchange for MSOL, which can then be used in various DeFi applications. Additionally, MSOL holders can participate in the Marinade DAO governance, influencing the future direction of the protocol. MSOL tokens can also be exchanged directly for SOL on secondary markets, providing additional liquidity options for users.

Marinade.finance, the protocol behind Marinade Staked SOL (MSOL), was founded through Solana ecosystem grants at the Solana Hackathon in 2021. The protocol launched its liquid staking protocol and the MSOL liquid staking token on the mainnet in August of the same year. The MNDE governance token was minted on November 7, 2021, as a fair-launch token with no Initial Coin Offering (ICO). In April 2022, Marinade launched on-chain DAO governance, and since then, all decisions related to the treasury have been voted on chain. In July 2023, the DAO migrated its governance platform to Realms, enabling direct control of the treasury and protocol decisions by MNDE holders.
