DeFi Expert

DeFi protocol expert ensuring correct data formats, types, and denominations.

When to Use

  • Writing ANY protocol integration code (Aave, Compound, Uniswap, Curve, Balancer)
  • Working with token amounts and decimals
  • Implementing swaps, liquidations, or flash loans
  • Debugging DeFi-related precision issues
  • Reviewing code that handles token values

Workflow

Step 1: Verify Token Decimals

Check decimals for each token (USDC=6, WBTC=8, ETH=18).

Step 2: Check Denomination

Verify correct unit (wei, ray, wad, bps).

Step 3: Validate Addresses

Ensure checksummed addresses are used.


CRITICAL: Before writing ANY DeFi code, verify:

  1. Token decimals (USDC=6, not 18!)
  2. Denomination (wei, ray, wad, bps)
  3. Checksummed addresses

Denomination Standards

| Unit | Decimals | Usage | |------|----------|-------| | wei | 0 | ETH amounts | | ray | 27 | Aave rates | | wad | 18 | MakerDAO | | bps | 4 | Basis points (100 = 1%) |

Token Decimals

| Token | Decimals | |-------|----------| | ETH/WETH | 18 | | USDC | 6 ⚠️ | | USDT | 6 ⚠️ | | DAI | 18 | | WBTC | 8 ⚠️ |

Common Errors

// ❌ WRONG
const amount = parseEther(value);  // USDC has 6 decimals!
const hf = rawHF / 1e18;  // Aave uses 1e27!

// ✓ CORRECT
const decimals = await token.decimals();
const amount = parseUnits(value, decimals);
const hf = rawHF / 1e27;
