Team other-protocol involvement history

Multipli's assessment for RD-F-113 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Shaaran: Krypto (India crypto exchange, 2019–2022), tanX.fi (StarkEx institutional DEX, 2021–present; still live; no rug/exit-scam found). Ritumbhara: Krypto co-founder (2020–2022); no adverse protocol history. Nakul: Coinbase/PayPal/BCG; no prior DeFi protocol. tanX.fi searched specifically for security incidents — none found (rekt.news, REKT leaderboard, Halborn top-100 DeFi hacks 2025). The $16.5M capital reallocation from tanX.fi is corroborated. Yellow reflects no verifiable DeFi-native prior work for Nakul; prior ventures are clean but Krypto/tanX are adjacent-not-identical to DeFi protocol building. [?] No neutral/successful DeFi protocol launch verifiable for all three founders prior to Multipli.
