# RSR Slashing

**Overview**

Staked RSR can be slashed if the collateral backing the RToken defaults and is valued at less than the RToken share it is backing. This indicator tracks the slashes and the amount of RSR slashed that is backing a given RToken.

**How can I use it?**

The chart for this indicator should normally show nothing which indicates that there have been no slashes for that RToken. However, for RSR holders it is important to check this indicator to evaluate the risks behind securing an RToken with stRSR. For users that are deciding to deploy capital into an RToken, this indicator can signal the stability of the collateral backing an RToken. Multiple slashes will mean that the collateral often goes into default and could signal an unstable RToken.
