Audit log

Every state-changing event for Camelot: moderation decisions on community submissions, plus corrections and updates from the news pipeline. URL-based decisions are designed to carry three independent witnesses — the original source, an Internet Archive snapshot, and a Solana memo signed by our publicly-disclosed publisher key. Archive coverage is still being backfilled, so each decision below reports its own snapshot status rather than assuming one exists.

It says it was bootstrapped by the Arbitrum community from 2022, and that it supports Arbitrum One plus eight Arbitrum Orbit chains. The documentation page does not describe a named team or a governance structure. Coverage describes the project as originating as Excalibur on Fantom and rebranding to Camelot on Arbitrum in November 2022 (secondary, undated aggregator-style summary). On 2026-10-13, DefiLlama's API returned a TVL of about $6.96M for Camelot V2 and about $5.42M for Camelot V3, roughly $12.4M combined. The V3 figure differs from the roughly $4.7M noted by the requester on 7 October 2026, so TVL appears to move between readings. DefiLlama's protocol data showed Arbitrum as the dominant chain (about $11.0M), with ApeChain about $1.3M and other chains negligible. CoinGecko's API returned a GRAIL price of about $32.16 and a market cap of about $966,572, against an all-time high of $4,643.22 (last updated 2026-10-13). An earlier undated snapshot cited a market cap near $8.4M, so the market cap has been volatile or has declined. Figures are point-in-time and should be re-checked.","heading":"Overview and scale","severity":"medium","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"Camelot documentation","type":"official","url":"https://docs.camelot.exchange"},{"credibility":2,"name":"DefiLlama API - Camelot V2 TVL","type":"on_chain","url":"https://api.llama.fi/tvl/camelot-v2"},{"credibility":2,"name":"DefiLlama API - Camelot V3 TVL","type":"on_chain","url":"https://api.llama.fi/tvl/camelot-v3"},{"credibility":2,"name":"DefiLlama API - Camelot protocol data","type":"on_chain","url":"https://api.llama.fi/protocol/camelot"},{"credibility":2,"name":"CoinGecko API - Camelot token (GRAIL)","type":"other","url":"https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/camelot-token"},{"credibility":3,"name":"Project: Camelot (Substack overview)","type":"research","url":"https://vorpaxis.substack.com/p/a-look-into-camelot"}]},{"content":"Camelot's audit page lists reports from Paladin (Camelot protocol, dated 2022-10-30 per the PDF filename; Nitro and presale, 2022-11-14), BailSec (Router, and an Algebra Integral v1.2 core update), Hacken, ABDK and Hexens (Algebra, the basis of the V3 AMM) and MixBytes (core audit for the V4 AMM based on Algebra Integral). Audit reports do not guarantee the absence of vulnerabilities, and the page does not state whether every Orbit-chain deployment is covered. Web searches for Camelot DEX exploits, hacks, lawsuits or regulatory actions returned no relevant reports, and DefiLlama's protocol data showed no hacks field in the portion read (the response was truncated, so this is not conclusive). Absence of reports is not proof that no incident occurred.","heading":"Security audits and incident history","severity":"low","sources":[{"credibility":2,"name":"Camelot documentation - Audits","type":"official","url":"https://docs.camelot.exchange/references/audits"},{"credibility":2,"name":"DefiLlama API - Camelot protocol data","type":"on_chain","url":"https://api.llama.fi/protocol/camelot"}]},{"content":"GRAIL circulating supply was reported at about 30,053 tokens and a market cap under $1M on 2026-10-13, which suggests thin liquidity for the token and heightened price volatility. The project's documentation says GRAIL captures value generated by the network. Tokenomics coverage describes a non-transferable xGRAIL used for governance and fee sharing.

Searches found no reports of an exploit, enforcement action or lawsuit against it, and its documentation lists several third-party audits. TVL has fallen sharply from earlier snapshots and the GRAIL market cap is under $1M, which are factors for users to weigh.
