Red flags and things to watch

No red flags found
  • Convex's on-chain governance went live on 24-30 Jul 2026; voting requires locked CVX.[7]
  • Convex's holder income comes from CRV earned by Curve liquidity providers, so it depends on Curve's emissions.[5]

Checked: admin keys, contract upgrades, unlocks, insider supply, hacks, legal actions and claims against records.
