\section{Trust Assumptions}
\label{sec:trust}
We enumerate the explicit trust assumption for each system component.
\begin{table}[ht]
\centering
\caption{Per-component trust assumptions.}
\label{tab:trust}
\begin{tabular}{p{3cm}p{5cm}p{4cm}}
\toprule
\textbf{Component} & \textbf{Trust Assumption} & \textbf{Failure Consequence} \\
\midrule
Validator set & $< n/3$ validators are Byzantine & Safety violation \\
Consensus engine & Implementation matches specification & Consensus bugs \\
BLS library & Correct pairing computation & Signature forgery \\
ML-DSA library & Correct lattice operations, NIST KATs pass & PQ signature forgery \\
MPC signers & $< t$ signers are corrupted & Bridge/vault key compromise \\
Price oracles & $> n/2$ oracle sources are honest & DeFi liquidation manipulation \\
Chain finality & Finalized blocks are irreversible & Double-spend \\
EVM implementation & Deterministic execution matches spec & State divergence \\
RNG (key generation) & System entropy source is unpredictable & Predictable keys \\
Time source & NTP within $\Delta_{\text{max}}$ of real time & Timestamp manipulation \\
\bottomrule
