GenLayer Studio NextChain ID: 61997Consensus Active

Autonomous Exploit-Response Circuit Breaker

When minutes matter, smart contracts cannot wait for multisig signers. GenLayer AI validators independently verify exploit evidence under consensus and autonomously halt vulnerable contracts in seconds.

Interactive Circuit Breaker

Query the authoritative is_halted(target) state on the GenLayer network in real time. This is the exact view protected protocols evaluate prior to executing transfers.

How AegisBreaker Operates

Decentralized equivalence consensus eliminates the need for trusted emergency multi-sigs.

Autonomous Security Primitive
PHASE 01Embed 1-line check
Protocol Opt-In

Any protocol registers its target address and embeds is_halted(target) into sensitive functions (withdrawals, liquidations, swaps).

PHASE 02Public verifiable proof
Permissionless Report

Security researchers or automated bot monitors submit an exploit claim with public evidence URL. No KYC, no whitelist, no gatekeepers.

PHASE 03Multi-validator AI audit
Equivalence Consensus

GenLayer validators independently fetch the raw evidence via GenVM web rendering and prompt LLMs under strict consensus rubrics.

PHASE 04Sub-minute mitigation
Autonomous Circuit Trip

Confirmed Critical/High findings (>=70% confidence) arm the halt signal instantly, pausing the contract and paying the bounty pool.

Plug your protocol into Aegis in under 5 minutes. Smart contracts simply inspect is_halted(target) prior to state mutations.

STEP 01
Register Address

Call register_protection() on the Aegis contract. Target address is registered into the monitoring registry.

STEP 02
Add whenNotHalted Modifier

Attach the modifier to your sensitive deposit, withdrawal, or swap functions. It executes a view call before state changes.

STEP 03
Autonomous Mitigation

When validator consensus confirms an active exploit, is_halted flips to true and transactions pause instantly.

Security Economics & Autonomous Bounties

Aegis aligns incentives between protocols and white-hat security researchers. Verified exploit discoveries are rewarded autonomously from the on-chain pool with severity-scaled payouts.

Native GEN TokenImmediate Transfer
Critical Tier8x Bounty
Direct Fund Drain

Total loss of funds or catastrophic protocol takeover demonstrable right now.

Action: AUTONOMOUS HALT
Threshold: >= 70% Confidence
High Tier4x Bounty
Unauthorized Control

Significant financial impact or governance compromise demonstrable under realistic conditions.

Action: AUTONOMOUS HALT
Threshold: >= 70% Confidence
Medium Tier2x Bounty
Constrained Impact

Vulnerability requires unusual preconditions or has bounded economic exposure.

Action: Logged & Rewarded
Halt: Manual / Human Review
Low Tier1x Base
Hardening Finding

Best-practice improvements, edge-case validation issues, or informational bugs.

Action: Recorded Advisory
Halt: Not Applicable
Anti-Hallucination Confidence Guard

Halting a live protocol is serious. A hedging or low-confidence LLM verdict (<70%) will NEVER arm an autonomous halt, even if marked critical. The finding is archived as inconclusive for human triage.

Persistent Whitehat Reputation & Bounty Guarantees

Every confirmed exploit increases the reporter on-chain reputation score permanently. If the contract pool is momentarily underfunded, owed bounties are tracked on-chain and claimable once replenished.

The Response Time Gap: Why Minutes Matter

Over $1.7 billion was lost in the incidents below not because security teams were careless, but because humans cannot coordinate as fast as an automated exploit payload.

Over $1.7B DrainedHuman Bottleneck Eliminated
Ronin Bridge(Mar 2022)

Compromised validator keys. Transactions were submitted publicly, yet no human monitored or pulled the plug for nearly a week.
