Many DeFi users were hit incredibly hard by Luna’s sudden collapse. Some lost all of their life savings, and investments, and lamentably, there were reports of suicides by investors. DeFi’s TVL halved, and many even considered the moment a capitulation for the emerging sector. What Caused Investors to Lose Money? Unlike traditional finance, where there are complex orders created, such as Stop-Losses, or Take-Profits, DeFi has limited to nil automations. Every investor in crypto has, at some point, lost 20% of their portfolio’s value while sleeping. Wild price swings are extremely common, and in DeFi, there is nothing to protect against this. On 10th May, Luna dropped about 90% in 8 hours — a timeframe investors could theoretically have been sleeping, working, or relaxing during. Issues like this make managing a DeFi portfolio a 24/7 job — which is not just bad from a financial perspective, but horrendous for the users’ mental health. It encourages users to compulsively check their portfolio, and to never switch off. DeFiHelper’s solution ’s automations protect users from such price swings. DFH offers users the ability to program automations that act as Stop-Losses, and Take-Profits, as well as (in the near future) Trailing Stop-Losses and Take-Profits. DeFiHelper These would kick in in the event of a wild price drop, as seen with Terra.
