No external oracles in use. No single point of failure.
1️⃣ Every position sized against what the pool can actually execute.
2️⃣ Every liquidation grounded in real onchain depth.
3️⃣ Every price level capped on how much liquidation risk it can hold.

How does Ammalgam manage risk without relying on oracles?
Most DeFi protocols rely on external price feeds to manage risk. Ammalgam does not.
Here is how the DLEX risk engine evaluates every position using only what exists inside each pool. 🧵
Individual positions that each pass LTV checks can still create concentrated risk at a single price level if enough of them cluster together.
Ammalgam tracks positions across tranches - large price buckets that aggregate total liquidation exposure.
Tranches cap how much liquidation risk can build up at any price level, limiting the conditions that create cascades.
Recipes are pre-configured strategies built on Dual-Purpose Pools.
Each recipe has a defined delta and gamma profile, describing long or short exposure and sensitivity to volatility, so you can understand position behavior before deploying.
1️⃣ Select a recipe.
2️⃣ Preview the expected payout and exposure.
3️⃣ Deploy your position.

Web2 is unsafe too. Nobody stopped banking or shopping online.
We accepted that the human layer would always be the easiest thing to attack and started building systems around that reality.
I think DeFi is reaching the same point.
We're focusing too much on smart contract exploits alone. Meanwhile, attackers are targeting laptops, private keys, credentials, dependencies, and development pipelines.
You can audit code for a year and still lose funds because a developer dumped some of the code into Claude to ship faster, or an employee signed into a company account from a public WiFi network while traveling.
I don't think DeFi is doomed, because the threat model has changed.
But we do need to rethink security. The protocols that survive will be the ones built around a simple assumption:
Compromise is inevitable. Resilience is a design choice.

5x more risk for 3x the reward. That's what Uni UI forecasts for their v3 ETH-USDC vault.
V2 ETH-USDC is at 2.5%. Less than HODL'n and lending the underlying on Morpho, Euler, or Spark. Zero premium for IL risk. V3 is WORSE!
A 🧵 of the problem and how @Ammalgam fixes it
Traditional DeFi keeps trading and lending in separate pools.
Ammalgam's Dual-Purpose Pools change that. Every deposit earns both swap fees from trades and lending interest from borrowers - all from one pool.
Up to 60% more yield. Same capital, one pool.
