Ostium
6.58 / 10100% measured$17.2M in value locked (DefiLlama). Capital is the market voting with its money — scored on a log scale, so the jump from $10M to $100M counts for more than $10B to $20B.
2 published audits with links (DefiLlama) — read the findings yourself. Audits reduce risk, they do not remove it.
Live 2.1 yr (time since DefiLlama listing (a floor on true age)). Most failures happen young, so time survived is real signal.
Deployed on 1 chain (DefiLlama). Breadth is a minor tie-breaker — a focused single-chain protocol can still be excellent.
Median 173 ms to first byte from the live interface, our own probe, slowest sample discarded, single location. Compared only within this category.

No published audits on DefiLlama. Not proof of insecurity, but an unaudited contract holding funds is a red flag.

A status page exists but publishes no feed we could parse — readable, not auditable. Part of that may be our blind spot (we read three platforms).
Security audits: No published audits on DefiLlama. Not proof of insecurity, but an unaudited contract holding funds is a red flag.
Anyone putting size into it: it holds funds in smart contracts with no published audit. Fine to experiment with, not to trust with a position you cannot afford to lose.
