dYdX v4 (dYdX Chain)'s assessment for RD-F-116 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Cosmos x/gov model: no EVM-style admin-permissioned PRs that directly execute on-chain changes. Binary release signing (the closest analog) performed by dYdX Labs engineering team, which has been active on the dydxprotocol GitHub org since 2018 (v1 dYdX). v4-chain repo active since 2022 pre-mainnet. 179+ contributors in past year with most recent commit 2026-05-14. Long-tenured contributor base; no evidence of recent short-tenure contributor granted admin-equivalent signing permissions.
