# Network Security

**Liquid Staking Risks** could result in slightly lower network security due to staked capital being available for purchase rather than locked.

**DAO Risks**&#x20;

DAOs are still an experiment in governance that may lead to many unforeseen situations. Trusted Node minimizes the risks by utilizing an established DAO platform, such as Aragon, with access to multiple governance tools and tested smart contracts.

**Centralization Risks**&#x20;

Any governance can be subject to centralization if there are not enough participants. Trusted Node prevents voting power accumulation through DAO incentives, intuitive governance UX, and promoting awareness.
