Practical overview
When it fits
Use it to discover and organize relevant reading when beginning a DeFi risk research question; follow the individual paper references for the underlying research.
Who it is for
- Researchers seeking papers on DeFi protocol economics and risk modelling.
- Readers comparing published analyses of markets, lending, stablecoins, oracles and liquidations.
Documented uses
- Find research papers associated with a DeFi mechanism or risk topic.
- Browse the listed literature by publication year.
- Build a starting bibliography for comparing DeFi protocol analyses.
Requirements & limits
The repository is public and specifies the Apache-2.0 license.
- The README organizes its paper list by year, which helps readers browse the collection chronologically.
- Lower-level blockchain design economics, including block production and MEV, is mostly out of scope.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Browse the DeFi risk and cryptoeconomics bibliography
Use the repository as a topic-oriented starting point for finding DeFi research papers.
Before you start
- Access to the public GitHub repository or its README.
Steps
Open the repository README.
Browse the papers listed under the year headings.
Select a relevant paper from its linked title to continue reading.
Expected outcome
A paper relevant to DeFi cryptoeconomics or risk modelling can be identified and opened from the bibliography.
Guide limitations
- The repository is a compilation of research, not an executable risk-modelling tool.
- Lower-level blockchain design topics, including block production and MEV, are mostly out of scope.
