Can your rating go above 5000?

Lichess is open-source. Have a look at this page:
github.com/ornicar/lila/blob/master/modules/rating/src/main/Glicko.scala

According to the source-code of the Glicko2-computations, the minimum is 600 and the theoretical maximum is 4000. The lower bound has been attained by quite a lot of people. No human player has ever been close to the upper bound.

Lichess doesn't has a max rating for your information.
Too, there are very very very few players who've reached 3000 rating that's why no one has ever reached near 4000.
there was once a 3800 cheater
