# Risk of using Eywa ### Risk of Using Eywa Pool’s Providing liquidity on **Eywa** pools doesn't come without risks. Before making a deposit, it is best to research and understand the risks involved. ### Audits Eywa smart contracts were [Audited](https://classic.curve.fi/audits) by [Hexens](https://hexens.io/) and [Smartstate.](https://smartstate.tech/) However, it’s important to note that security audits cannot completely eliminate risks. Avoid supplying your life savings, or assets you can’t afford to lose, especially as a liquidity provider to **Eywa**. Using **Eywa** as an exchange user should generally be less risky, but it is important to note that this is not financial advice. ### Eywa Multisig Eywa employs Multisig to enhance the protocol’s security. Multisig manages the key parameters of the protocol and includes Eywa team members, as well as external individuals and organizations. A decision is considered accepted when at least 5 out of 7 participants have signed the Proposal. Any decision that affects changes in key protocol parameters is made through **Eywa Multisig**. ### Risk of Eywa Oracle Network Hacking If the **Eywa** consensus is compromised, there is a risk of liquidity being stolen from **Eywa** Portal smart-contracts across supported networks. This scenario would result in a devaluation of the s/e-tokens backed by that liquidity. ### Permanent Loss of a Peg In the event that one of the stablecoins in the pool significantly falls below the peg of 1.0 and fails to return to the peg, it would effectively mean that pool liquidity providers have most of their liquidity tied up in that currency. ### Eywa Protocol Disclaimer Please carefully read this [Disclaimer](https://docs.eywa.fi/legal-documentation/protocol-disclaimer) before accessing, interacting with, or using the **Eywa** Protocol (hereafter "the Protocol") software, which includes the Protocol technology stack, particularly its smart contracts. ### Staking Risks When staking, you are utilizing multiple smart contract products, each of which carries its own risks. It is important to [learn more about the risks](https://resources.curve.fi/lp/understanding-curve-pools) associated with each pool. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
