Quickstart

This quickstart introduces the core workflows of RAX Protocol and helps you get value from the system within minutes.

RAX can be used in multiple ways depending on your role and objectives. The steps below outline the most common entry points.


Option 1: Understand Global Risk

Start here if you want a high-level view of DeFi market risk.

  1. Open the Risk Overview dashboard

  2. Review the Global Risk Score and its trend over time

  3. Check detected AI anomalies and recent volatility events

  4. Inspect the distribution of monitored TVL across chains

This workflow is useful for gaining situational awareness before making any capital decisions.


Option 2: Analyze Portfolio Risk and Exposure

Use this path if you already manage capital on-chain.

  1. Navigate to Portfolio Risk Overview

  2. Review your portfolio-level Risk Score, Value at Risk, and Health Factor

  3. Open Exposure Analysis to identify concentration across chains, protocols, and asset classes

  4. Identify high-risk exposure and dependency clusters

This workflow helps you understand where risk is coming from and how concentrated your positions are.


Option 3: Monitor Risk in Real Time

Choose this option if you need continuous monitoring.

  1. Go to Alerts & Monitoring

  2. Enable alert rules for events such as liquidity stress, volatility spikes, or oracle deviations

  3. Select notification channels such as email or messaging integrations

  4. Review historical risk events to understand recurring patterns

This workflow is designed for ongoing risk surveillance rather than one-time analysis.


Option 4: Allocate Capital Using Constraints

Use this path if you want to actively manage capital.

  1. Open the Allocation Engine

  2. Select a strategy profile such as defensive, balanced, or aggressive

  3. Configure risk constraints including drawdown tolerance and volatility thresholds

  4. Review AI-generated allocation suggestions

  5. Simulate outcomes before executing changes

This workflow emphasizes controlled allocation rather than yield maximization.


Option 5: Use RaxBot for Rankings

If you prefer a lightweight interface or agent-based access, start with RaxBot.

  1. Open RaxBot

  2. Select a job such as risk-adjusted rankings or stablecoin vaults

  3. Review results and associated risk context

  4. Use outputs as input for deeper analysis within the RAX app

RaxBot is designed as an entry point, not a replacement for full risk analysis.


What to Explore Next

After completing the quickstart, we recommend exploring:

  • Risk Score to understand how risk is measured

  • Exposure vs Allocation to learn how concentration affects risk

  • Allocation Engine to see how strategies and constraints interact

  • Security & Risk Disclosures to understand system limits


Important Notes

  • RAX provides risk intelligence and decision support, not financial advice

  • Risk scores and simulations are based on models and assumptions that may change

  • All capital decisions remain the responsibility of the user
