Uncertainty

Known unknowns

Reviewed gaps remain visible instead of being converted into false certainty.

complete_error_mint_trace_and_recovery

Official reports document large burns and recovery, but every traced transfer and residual economic effect is not normalized.

Severity
Medium
Last checked
2026-06-17

Do not reduce the incident to a single unqualified loss number.

aseed_redemption_value_and_treasury_coverage

aSEED is not asserted to maintain a continuous one-dollar market peg; redemption value and treasury coverage depend on protocol governance and available assets.

Severity
High
Last checked
2026-06-17

Migration continuity does not imply unchanged economic rights.
