Digital Asset Financial Stability Risk Framework

A structured approach for identifying how governance, liquidity, legal conditions, operational infrastructure, and ecosystem connectivity may influence the stability of a digital asset.

An educational, preliminary inherent-risk framework—not a credit rating, investment recommendation, or compliance determination.
The framework

Five dimensions of digital-asset stability

DA-FSR looks beyond code-level assurance to identify dependencies, concentrations, and vulnerabilities across the broader operating environment.

01

Governance

Decision rights, administrative control, transparency, and accountability.

02

Liquidity

Market depth, redemption access, price stability, and stress capacity.

03

Legal & Regulatory

Legal rights, jurisdiction, oversight, and regulatory conditions.

04

Operational Integrity

Reserve infrastructure, custody, controls, attestations, and resilience.

05

Ecosystem Connectivity

Integration, concentration, dependencies, and potential contagion channels.

Preliminary assessment

How the assessment works

1

Define the asset

Identify the asset and select the arrangement that best describes its structure.

2

Evaluate conditions

Choose the descriptions that best reflect the asset across the five dimensions.

3

Review findings

Receive a preliminary classification, key findings, evidence needs, and recommended review areas.

Asset-type aware

Designed for different stability arrangements

Asset type helps frame which evidence, dependencies, and operational questions are relevant. It does not determine the result by itself.
