Avg attacker reconnaissance time for peer-class protocols

Evidence summary #

Class-level metric for similar DEX AMM protocols. USPD baseline reconnaissance window = 78 days (T-09 evidence). V4 PoolManager singleton (TVjuTE3V5bMVdpfNhid8kD2v35T2k1u1Br) launched 2026-03-02 — 76 days old as of 2026-05-17, placing it within the reconnaissance window for similar-class new-surface attacks. V4 hooks architecture (arbitrary external calls at swap lifecycle) introduces a new attack surface that reconnaissance actors would investigate. No confirmed active reconnaissance. Analytical annotation — not a live trigger. Yellow reflects elevated attention window for V4 new surface.

Report the average number of days of attacker reconnaissance activity before a strike on peer-class protocols (lending/DEX/bridge/perps), sourced from the hack database.
