Rubic – DEX Aggregator Review

Score: 51/100. Lowest in this sub-series: two 2022 hacks and unresolved, wide gaps in its own claimed audit scope.
Jupiter – DEX Aggregator Review

Score: 78/100. Highest score in this whole project: ~95% Solana share, with the one 2024 phishing incident purely user-side.
1inch – DEX Aggregator Review

Score: 75/100. Category-defining aggregator; a Mar 2025 resolver incident (~$5M) didn’t touch user funds, but did touch trust.
Bluefin – DEX Review

Score: 65/100. Sui’s well-audited leader, with a real TVL decline and a neighbor’s $223M hack prompting a security gut-check.
Vertex – DEX Review

Score: 62/100. Sophisticated cross-margin trading, reviewed mid-migration to a new chain with conflicting founder accounts.
THORChain – DEX Review

Score: 46/100. Unmatched native cross-chain swaps, carrying 2021 hacks, a $200M 2025 crisis, and use as a laundering conduit.
Balancer – DEX Review

Score: 47/100. The most incidents in this series: four since 2021, including a $116-128M hack that hit twice-audited code.
Meteora – DEX Review

Score: 62/100. Brilliant DLMM engineering, carrying a 2026 incident and real controversy over memecoin launches on its tools.
Orca – DEX Review

Score: 75/100. Zero hacks in 4+ years and six audits from four firms, deliberately trading liquidity depth for that clean record.
