Bridge validator count (M)

Evidence summary #

LayerZero OFT V2 architecture — validator count determined by DVN configuration. Current configuration: single default LayerZero DVN (operated by LayerZero Labs). Effective validator count = 1. Venus docs explicitly acknowledge: 'Bridge relies on a single relayer, the default by LayerZero.' No confirmed upgrade to multi-DVN as of 2026-04-28.
