★ Low-threshold multisig vs TVL
Balancer (v2 + v3)'s assessment for RD-F-028 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
DAO Multisig 6-of-11 is adequate for $115M TVL. However, Emergency subDAO threshold was reduced from 4-of-7 to 3-of-7 per BIP-883, below peer norm for emergency bodies at this TVL. BIP-907 (Jan 2026) proposed replacing 4 of 11 signers; Snapshot vote February 2026, passage not confirmed. 11 signers are documented external delegates from distinct organizations.
