TVL concentration (top-10 wallet share)

Babylon Protocol's assessment for RD-F-064 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Top-10 BTC delegator wallet concentration is not quantifiable — Bitcoin Taproot UTXOs cannot be scanned via standard EVM/DeFi tooling (Dune Analytics, DefiLlama wallet scan). Structural concentration is qualitatively high: institutional LRT protocols (Lombard LBTC, Lorenzo Protocol) likely route large BTC positions to specific finality providers. 60 active FPs at Phase-2 launch vs 250+ registered; delegation concentration across FPs unknown. Yellow for evidence gap and qualitative concentration risk.
