Large governance proposal queued
Axelar Network's assessment for RD-F-101 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
T-09 v1 launch signal. Axelar has active Cosmos x/gov governance on axelar-dojo-1 and EVM relay via InterchainGovernance (0xfDF36A30070ea0241d69052ea85ff44Ad0476a66, 7-day minimum delay). Most recent notable governance proposal was #256 (2024, chain-halt vulnerability fix — legitimate security response, not malicious pattern). No malicious-pattern governance proposals identified as of 2026-05-17. The Cosmos governance model (AXL-staked validator voting) is not susceptible to flash-loan quorum attack — staked AXL is locked, not flash-loanable. EVM side has mandatory 7-day timelock. Signal would NOT fire today.
