Autonomous Protocols · GenLayer Intelligent Contract
The autonomous exploit
circuit breaker
Anyone reports an exploit. GenLayer validators independently verify the evidence and reach consensus. Confirmed exploits autonomously halt the target protocol and pay the reporter. No multisig, no trusted operator.
How Aegis Works
1. Opt in
A protocol registers for protection. Its contract reads is_halted(target) and pauses itself on a confirmed halt.
2. Report
Anyone submits an exploit report with a public evidence URL and a target address.
3. Consensus
Validators independently fetch the evidence and re-judge it under the Equivalence Principle. Fabricated claims fail consensus.
4. Autonomous response
A confirmed exploit arms the halt, pays a severity-scaled bounty, and credits reporter reputation — with no human in the loop.
