Technology
Fraud proofs ensure state correctness
After some period of time, the published state root is assumed to be correct. For a certain time period, usually one week anyone can submit a fraud proof that shows that the state was incorrect.
Funds can be stolen if there is no one that checks the published state. Fraud proofs assume at least one honest and able validator.
Data is not stored on chain
The transaction data is stored on a plasma chain and is not recorded on the Ethereum main chain.
Funds can be lost if the external data becomes unavailable (CRITICAL).
Operator
The system has a centralized operator
The operator is the only entity that can propose blocks. A live and trustworthy operator is vital to the health of the system.
MEV can be extracted if the operator exploits their centralized position and frontruns user transactions.
Users can independently exit the system
Independent exit allows the users to escape censorship by withdrawing their funds. The system allows users to withdraw their funds by submitting a transaction directly to the contract on-chain.
Users can be censored if the operator refuses to include their transactions. They can still exit the system.
Withdrawals
Regular exit
The user executes the withdrawal by submitting a transaction on L1 that requires a merkle proof of funds.
The mass exit problem is unsolved
In case the operator is malicious all users need to exit within a predetermined time frame. Users that do not manage to do this will lose their funds.
Funds can be stolen if users are unable to withdraw in a mass exit event.
Smart Contracts
The system consists of the following smart contracts:
This contract stores the following tokens: ETH, DAI, L2.
This contract stores the following tokens: DAI, USDT.
The current deployment carries some associated risks:
Funds can be stolen if a contract receives a malicious code upgrade. There is no delay on code upgrades (CRITICAL).
