The DERC20 contract is a standard ERC-20 implementation with additional governance, voting, and vesting capabilities. The protocol relies on a centralized owner to manage inflation rates and liquidity pool access. While the code follows established OpenZeppelin standards, the high degree of administrative control over token supply and transferability introduces significant centralization risks for token holders.

Exact factors
- Owner can pause all transfers
- A privileged address controls a switch that decides whether transfers go through
- Mintable supply — no cap found, dilution unbounded
- Liquidity NOT locked (100% of the pool) — held by independent providers — market-depth risk
- Top-10 concentration > 30% (100.0% total → 48.2% effective; 16.2% in EOAs, 80.0% in contracts; 3.8% burned, locked or in pools excluded)
Each factor is an on-chain fact recorded at the time of this analysis. The score is computed from them by a deterministic function, so the same contract returns the same score for anyone who runs the audit. How scores are computed

How holder types affect the score
Share held by contracts — treasury, vesting, bridge or staking — is discounted against share held by wallets when the score is computed: a contract cannot decide to sell the way an anonymous holder can, though it can still be drained or voted to sell. Effective concentration is the figure the risk score is actually calculated from.

Liquidity
as of audit · Oct 22The risk score reads depth across every pair.
The LP tokens of the analysed pool are not locked or burned, so whoever holds them can withdraw that liquidity.

Security Findings
MediumCentralized Control Over Token Supply
The owner has the authority to mint new tokens via the updateMintRate and release functions. This allows the owner to increase the total supply at their discretion, which can lead to the dilution of existing token holders' value.CP-01
Issue
The owner has the authority to mint new tokens via the updateMintRate and release functions. This allows the owner to increase the total supply at their discretion, which can lead to the dilution of existing token holders' value.
Fix
Implement a timelock for minting operations or transition ownership to a decentralized governance model to ensure that supply changes are subject to community consensus.
Status
Unresolved
MediumCentralized Control Over Transferability
The owner can toggle the isPoolUnlocked switch using the lockPool and unlockPool functions. This allows the owner to unilaterally freeze or unfreeze transfers, effectively controlling the liquidity and marketability of the token.CP-05
Issue
The owner can toggle the isPoolUnlocked switch using the lockPool and unlockPool functions. This allows the owner to unilaterally freeze or unfreeze transfers, effectively controlling the liquidity and marketability of the token.
Fix
Remove the ability for the owner to arbitrarily lock transfers, or restrict this functionality to a decentralized emergency pause mechanism that requires multi-party approval.

Unresolved
MediumLiquidity not locked
0.0% of the pool's LP is burned or time-locked. 100.0% is held, unlocked, by 1 address(es) other than the owner/deployer. One of them — a wallet, 0x4228…22d6 — holds 100.0% and can remove that share at once; who controls it is not visible on-chain, so it is not treated as an independent provider. Some pools are concentrated-liquidity (V3/V4) positions; shares above are by position as GoPlus reports them.QA-LIQUIDITY

InfoWho holds the supply
The ten largest holders own 100.0% of supply. Of that, 3.8% burned — not holders that can sell, so excluded from the concentration score. What remains: 16.2% in wallets, 80.0% in other contracts. The deployer/owner wallet itself holds 16.2%. 2,592 holders in total.QA-HOLDERS

Analysis
AI Copilotas of audit · Oct 22The architecture utilizes robust, battle-tested OpenZeppelin libraries for ERC-20, voting, and permit functionality. 7.1 Architecture and 7.2 Code Security are well-implemented, ensuring standard compliance. However, 7.3 Access Control is highly centralized, granting the owner extensive power over core contract logic. 7.8 Operations are straightforward, though the reliance on block.timestamp for inflation calculations is standard for this type of implementation.
7.4 Economic and 7.5 Governance aspects are dominated by the owner's ability to mint tokens and restrict transfers. While inflation is capped at 2% annually, the owner retains unilateral control over these parameters. 7.6 External dependencies are minimal, reducing the surface area for external exploits, but the centralization of power remains a primary concern for decentralized governance.
7.7 Upgrades are not implemented as this is a non-proxy contract. The logic is immutable, which provides security against proxy-based upgrade vulnerabilities. Future changes to the protocol would require a migration to a new contract address.
To improve security and trust, consider transitioning the owner role to a multi-signature wallet or a decentralized governance contract (DAO).
This would mitigate the risk of a single point of failure and provide transparency for administrative actions like minting or pool locking. Additionally, implement a timelock mechanism for all privileged functions. A delay between the announcement and execution of administrative changes would allow the community to monitor and respond to significant protocol adjustments.
