DeFi Fundamental
Analysis
We review DeFi projects on their commitment to transparency, user protection, and accountability.
Welcome to CRCI
At CRCI, we're setting new standards in DeFi analysis by prioritizing transparency, user protection, and accountability.
Our reviews help investors navigate the DeFi space with confidence and we support projects in demonstrating their commitment to these essential principles. Join us in fostering a more accountable DeFi ecosystem.
Our Mission and Context
"CRCI reviews DeFi projects on their commitment to transparency, user protection, and accountability through first-principles based fundamental analysis, establishing a standard of excellence and integrity for projects and investors."
Regulated traditional banking relies on trust in various entities that offer layers of protection and conveniences. Despite it's many flaws, accountability measures are established.
By contrast, blockchain transactions are trustless, lack protections and offer limited conveniences.
In DeFi, mistakes are irreversible and there is greater potential for failure, bad actors and ill-prepared projects with less accountability measures.
You are your own bank. Be Diligent.
