How Katana's TVL is measured
DeFiLlama publishes the exact rules used to aggregate on-chain balances into the headline TVL figure shown on this page. The methodology below is the team's own source-of-truth description.
Snapshots of the TVL from app.katana.so are saved periodically into the statistics repo
If a contract or vault isn't in this list, its balance does not contribute to the TVL displayed on Mantapex or DeFiLlama.
Security & Audits
Oracles supply external price data to on-chain contracts. Oracle compromise is a common attack vector — diversified providers reduce single-point-of-failure risk.

Protocol Footprint
Katana is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Solana — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Price feeds come from a single oracle provider (Pyth); an outage or manipulation of that feed would propagate into every market the protocol prices.
