Bridge validator count (M)
Maple Finance's assessment for RD-F-148 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
CCIP uses Chainlink DON — validator count managed by Chainlink, not readable from MapleCCIPReceiver. CCIP DON typically uses multiple independent node operators. Cannot verify exact count from application contract. LayerZero surface assessed under RD-F-179.
Detail #
MapleCCIPReceiver delegates all message authentication to CCIP Router (0x80226fc0ee2b096224eeac085bb9a8cba1196f7d). Chainlink CCIP's DON is not a classic multisig — validator count and threshold are Chainlink protocol parameters. For LayerZero OFT (SyrupOftAdapter), use RD-F-179.

Methodology #
Count the number of distinct validators or signers in the bridge's signer set (for non-LZ bridges; use F179 for LayerZero OFT).
