Cross-chain bridge unverified mint pattern
Fluid's assessment for RD-F-106 — scored not_assessed on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
v1-deferred. Plasma bridge mechanism is undocumented in sufficient detail to assess cross-chain mint-without-proof exposure (Plasma is described as EVM-compatible with PlasmaBFT consensus; trust-minimized Bitcoin bridge 'rolling out incrementally'). The Resolv/USR incident demonstrated that mint-without-proof at the collateral-token bridge layer creates Fluid bad debt even when Fluid's own contracts are sound. $106.6M Plasma TVL is a live surface. Without confirmed bridge architecture specification, the mint-without-proof exposure cannot be measured. Requires bridge architecture confirmation and live cross-chain monitoring.

Methodology #
Detect cross-chain activity consistent with an unverified mint on the destination chain (deposit on source without corresponding verified proof on dest).
