Basics

History

Audits & Exploits

"The project has been audited three times by Code4rena (a project launched by Scott Lewis, one of Kuiper’s bootstrappers)"

Bugs/Exploits

Governance

Admin Keys

"Kuiper has no governance set up to upgrade the smart contracts. This could prove to be a problem down the line, the team acknowledges, but it also means the parameters will never suddenly drastically change. It also makes censorship of indices all but impossible.

It is set up with a few parameters that can be changed, but it allows no more than 20% in fees to be collected on its indices. That’s a hard cap that’s built in."

Token

Launch

"The team also has neither announced a governance token nor ruled one out. “We have explicitly made a decision to not discuss this topic to avoid the possibility of information leakage, because information that does not exist can not be leaked,” the post explains."

Implementations

How it works

"Kuiper aims to stand out in a few ways, but they can be summed up in two words: permissionless and uncensorable.

Anyone can propose a set of assets for an index, someone else can put it together and generate a token that represents the assets in that index, while others can see that it remains balanced."

Usage

Projects that use or built on it

Competition

"Balancer and Set protocols allow users to create tokenized indexes.  Index Coop has made two different DeFi-focused indices. There’s a crypto index on the NASDAQ, TradeBlock offers several indices, Cryptex has its Total Crypto Market Cap token, Arch Finance has an Ethereum Web3 index token, among others."

Pros and Cons

Pros

Cons

Team, Funding and Partners

Team

Funding

"Kuiper was entirely bootstrapped with no outside venture investors involved. The team that bootstrapped Kuiper includes Lewis, of DeFi Pulse, Hyype and others; Will Price, an independent investor; Zak Cole and Nathan Blakely, both of Slingshot; Kevin Britz, of Coinbase; Aaron Beattie, of Whiteblock; and Nate Oden, of the Concourse Open Community. Once the protocol is live, “the organization will found itself,” Lewis said. The bootstrappers may or may not be part of it."
