No classical public-key primitive on any cryptographically sensitive path. No trusted setup ceremony for any proof system. Security Level 5 from block zero.
Hover a card to flip it — front shows the standard, back shows the wired parameters.
Transaction signing, block signing, P2P message authentication. Security Level 5 — ≥256-bit post-quantum security, stateless.
Validator binding, peer key encapsulation, wallet key management, onion routing. Security Level 5.
Block validity proofs and cross-chain bridge proofs. No trusted setup ceremony required for any proof system.
Callers declare outcomes. The Router determines how it executes, selecting the optimal engine automatically.
Transfer, stake, unstake, governance vote. No gas.
Intent parsing, engine selection, circuit breakers. Validation only.
Ethereum-compatible Solidity contracts. Ethereum gas semantics.
WASM contracts on the Cranelift backend. Configurable fuel metering.
ZK execution, public input verification. Fixed cost per verifier op.
Constraint validation — advisory, off-chain only. Deterministic; no gas; never touches state directly.
BLEEP Connect Tier 4 instant intent dispatch. Protocol fee in bps.
Safety holds when Byzantine stake f < S/3 of total staked supply. Three deterministic modes — PoS-Normal, Emergency, Recovery.
Stake-proportional proposer selected. Transactions ordered into a candidate block.
BlockValidityProver generates a Winterfell STARK proof — ~850ms, before broadcast.
Every validator independently verifies the proof — ~12ms — before casting a vote.
BFT precommits collected. Finalisation requires >66.67% of staked supply.
Irreversible. Long-range reorgs rejected at FinalityManager — tested to depth 50.
Hash-based signatures are one-way constructions — there is no known scheme to combine n SPHINCS+ signatures into one. Rather than wait on unproven aggregate-signature research, BLEEP's Signature Availability Layer (SAL) routes around the problem architecturally.
sig_commitment_root bound into header hash + STARK verificationSignature aggregation in the cryptographic sense remains a medium-term research direction, consistent with the whitepaper's stated limitations. SAL is the deployed mitigation for block bandwidth today — it changes what scales with transaction volume, not the signature scheme itself.
All Critical and High findings resolved. Cleared for Phase 6 public testnet preparation.
This reflects the Sprint 9 internal audit as documented in the Protocol Version 5 whitepaper. An external audit is scheduled ahead of Phase 6 public testnet.
