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.
Liquidity Risk
There is no guarantee that investments in crypto assets can be easily sold at any given time.
Complexity
Investments in crypto assets can be complex, making it difficult to understand the risks associated with the investment. You should do your own research before investing. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Concentration Risk
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 anyone to do well. A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.
Five questions to ask yourself
- Am I comfortable with the level of risk? Can I afford to lose my money?
- Do I understand the investment and could I get my money out easily?
- Are my investments regulated?
- Am I protected if the investment provider or my adviser goes out of business?
- Should I get financial advice?
DeFi tokens
Decentralised Finance ("DeFi") tokens are crypto assets built on decentralised blockchain technology for financial applications or protocols. Risks linked to DeFi tokens include:
Enterprise Risk
Interactions between multiple DeFi protocols create a situation where a vulnerability or breakdown in one protocol can trigger a cascading effect, affecting other interconnected platforms.
Technology Risk
DeFi protocols frequently depend on external data sources or oracles, and any tampering or inaccuracies in these data streams can result in a lack of trust and reliability in the protocols.
Regulatory Risk
Governments and regulatory bodies around the world can introduce new regulations or ban certain aspects of the cryptocurrency market, affecting its legality and viability, which could affect token liquidity and/or value.
Legal Risk
Certain tokens may be used for operating a decentralised exchange platform which may contain additional risks:
- The platform may allow users to participate who have not been vetted or verified and therefore expose the possibility that users are interacting with sanctioned entities.
- The platform may be accessible in jurisdictions where some or all the exchange activity should be regulated. If a local regulator deemed the platform activity to be in breach of local regulation, they may request cessation or termination of the service which could affect token liquidity and/or value.
Market Risk
Given their novelty, the evolving technology involved and lack traditional asset structure, valuing crypto assets can be very difficult or impossible. This means valuations are determined by demand that is at risk of manipulation in various ways.

ether.fi FAQ
Dive deeper into ether.fi
Ether.Fi is a fundamentally new staking protocol for Ethereum. Ether.Fi is the staking protcol that allows participants to retain control of their keys while degating staking. Depositors receive eETH, our liquid staking token that is widely usable across defi.
Deposits to Ether.Fi are natively re-staked with Eigenlayer. Eigenlayer repurposes staked ETH to support external systems (e.g., rollups, oracles) with an economic security layer, which increases yield for ETH stakers in the process.
Founded by mike and Rock, in 2021, Ether.Fi SEZC is a research and development company that serves as one of the contributors to Ether.Fi.
The mission of Ether.Fi is to provide liquid, decentralized access to the restaking ecosystem while enabling others to develop infrastructure on top of delegated staking. The protocol is controlled by ETHFI, the governance token of Ether.Fi.
How does it work
When a user deposits ETH into the protocol they receive eETH in exchange on a 1:1 basis. This enables the depositor to maintain control of their collateral for use across defi while it earns stake + re-staking yield.
ETHFI governance token holders can participate in protocol curation, including protocol and fee upgrades as well as treasury deployment.
ETHFI price and tokenomics
The maximum supply of ETHFI is 1 Billion and was minted at genesis. The other key details of ETHFI are:
- DAO treasury: 23.3% of token supply is allocated to the DAO and governed directly by ETHFI voting.
- Ecosystem Rewards: 16% of token supply is allocated to ecosystem development and rewards.
- Airdrop: 8% of the token supply is allocated to a multi-season airdrop campaign to encourage TVL growth.
ETHFI highlights
Since launching in March 2022, Ether.Fi has seen rapid growth in TVL and eETH adoption across the Defi ecosystem. With over 2.3B staked, it is the largest liquid restaking protocol, with over 73,000 depositors.
