Trust and limits

What you rely on Revvy for in a program, and what the checks do and do not cover.

Draws use Chainlink VRF and every list is published, but that does not remove the risk of a cycle going wrong. This page states what you rely on.

Revvy's committer key builds each list

Revvy's committer key builds each list. If that key were compromised, or Revvy misused it, a list could be built to favour a wallet. The list is published and anyone can check it against the chain, but checking is on you and the community. Revvy's checks confirm that the published list matches what was committed. They do not confirm that the balances behind it were right.

The 12 hour wait

A new dividend list waits 12 hours before claims open, and Revvy can cancel it during that time. The wait helps only if someone reads the list and acts within it. After the wait, a list cannot be cancelled or replaced. The only stop left is pausing the pool, which stops every claim on it.

Limits on a single wallet

No wallet can take more than a set share of a cycle's pot. This limits the damage a wrong list can do, but it limits each wallet, not the number of wallets. See farming risk.

Revvy can pause payouts

A paused pool stops new lists, claims, settlement and the closing of the pool until it is unpaused.

No third-party audit

The pool contracts have not had a third-party audit or review, and a bug could lock or misdirect the pot.

Estimates are not promises

The numbers on a token page, such as your odds, move as others buy and sell. They are not a promise, and a program is not interest and not a return.

When a pool is left unrun

If a pool has no activity for 90 days, and the claim period of 365 days has passed since its last dividend list, anyone can end it. What is not owed to a holder then goes to Revvy's treasury, not to holders or the creator. This is Revvy's rule for a pool nobody is running, and it is a cost to you if the cycles stop. Amounts already owed and prizes already drawn stay claimable.

Where you live

Check that taking part is allowed where you live. See also Admin powers, Verify a cycle and the risk disclosure.
