Breakage analysis per dependency

Hyperliquid's assessment for RD-F-052 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Binance failure alone: degraded but functional. Binance+OKX failure: mark prices shift toward minority sources. CEX source manipulation (JELLY class): mark prices corrupt with no circuit breaker — liquidations fire at wrong prices, HLP vault at risk. USDC pause: Bridge2 withdrawals halt. Arbitrum sequencer down: dispute-period arithmetic disrupted (Oct 2024 bridge outage precedent). Breakage scenarios documented and confirmed by live incidents.
