First-depositor / share-inflation guard
Curve Finance's assessment for RD-F-075 — scored not_applicable on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Not applicable per taxonomy PD-024 (lending-only factor). Qualitative note: MixBytes StableSwapNG audit (2021-09-27) found no MINIMUM_LIQUIDITY dead-share burn on initial deposit (total_supply==0 path mints D1 directly). Source review of CurveStableSwapNG.vy confirms this design. Mitigating factors: StableSwap invariant math makes large-scale inflation economically costly; audit confirmed all critical findings fixed. Risk is bounded to small factory pools. Not scored for this DEX.
