Due to a change in our LST oracle infrastructure, LST depegs can no longer cause liquidations for Multiply positions. Read more here:
Multiply vaults open a debt position, which means your position can be liquidated if your loan-to-value ratio is above the liquidation threshold. In SOL Multiply, this can occur if the borrow interest rate is higher than the LST yield for a sustained period of time. In JLP Multiply, this can occur if JLP drops in value relative to USD, such that it reaches your liquidation threshold.
Multiply does not have any depeg risk. Please read about Kamino's for more info.
Kamino has an auto-deleverage mechanism that can systematically unwind debt and collateral in the protocol to ensure that there is a safe amount of any given asset on the balance sheet.
Deleveraging happens automatically, and typically leaves your position with a safer LTV. However, you are advised to check the Kamino socials regularly, where you will be notified of any margin call period before deleveraging begins.
If K-Lend incurs bad debt, the debt will be proportionally distributed amongst all users in the system. This will push all positions closer to their liquidation threshold, and may even lead to liquidation. To provide a buffer, you are advised to manage their position in such a way that extreme interest rates would not lead to liquidations.
Liquid-staking tokens like JitoSOL and mSOL, and LP tokens like JLP, are issued by smart contracts outside of Kamino. Users are encouraged to do their own research regarding the safety of any products beyond Kamino.
