Risk Disclosures

Smart Contract Risk: Exposure to Curve, Convex, and Swell contracts. All are audited but carry inherent risks. Operator Risk: Swell's permissionless operator set means varying operator quality. Newer Protocol Risk: Swell has less track record than Lido or Rocket Pool. Depeg Risk: swETH may trade at discount during market stress or protocol concerns. Pearl Token Risk: Pearl/SWELL airdrop depends on protocol decisions and vesting schedules. Restaking Confusion: swETH vs rswETH have different risk profiles. This pool uses swETH (non-restaked). Governance Risk: Swell governance controls protocol parameters.
