Investing in Hyperliquid vaults has some risk to it which can result in negative returns. In fact, the current APR for HLP is -0.39%. Over a long period of time, this vault has been profitable so it is up to you to consider the risk.
There are some time tested platforms like Compound, Curve, and Aave, which might be a safer choice but your returns will be more modest.
All protocol platforms have risks in Dex, now it's really up to us how much risk we can give to the platform we will use for what we will do in staking or yield farming.
And in that regard, I can't give any suggestions because I haven't tried it yet.
That's all I can say that the risk will not go away, because once we release money or funds, there will immediately be a risk or its tail because in the cryptocurrency field,
volatility is always included in every asset that we will use or invest in.
