FORESHOCK

Every protocol here carries a dated score and the share of it backed by independently verified evidence. Where that share is still thin the assessment says so, is marked Low-signal rather than given a risk band, and holds every unevidenced category at the neutral midpoint instead of assuming it safe. Every score and its reasoning are free to read; the underlying dependency, incident and audit records are part of a plan. How a score is built, how to read one, and how the rubric was tested against real exploits are all in the methodology.

Coverage grows three ways: protocols Foreshock selects at its own discretion, protocols requested through the Request coverage button, and sponsored assessments delivered on an agreed timeline. No path has a guaranteed date except sponsorship.

Scores run from 0, the safest reading, to 100, the riskiest, where 50 is the neutral midpoint every unverified category is held at. Red marks a protocol scoring 50 or above, the band called Elevated: worse than neutral on the evidence gathered. Amber marks one below it, called Moderate. The boundary is fixed. It does not move as coverage grows, and it is not fitted to any backtest result.

Multi-Chain

:

  • Evidence: this reading is based on 100% of the scored weight, verified against named sources. Categories without verified data are excluded from the reading, never counted as safe.
  • Validation: the rubric is backtested against past exploits of protocols in the same TVL, age and category bucket. None has been evaluated for this one yet, so the reading rests on its evidence alone.
Score by categories
Audit profile12.0

2 audits on record, most recent audit is over 2 years old; the most recent audit found 1 High and 2 Medium severity issues. This reflects code quality at the time of that audit only, not a claim that these specific issues are still unresolved today.

Dependency risk10.5

Relies on 1 bridge.

Code characteristics9.0

Admin key: an unidentified controlling contract (no single key can act alone; its signers and any delay are unverified), open source.

Governance attack surface7.5

Top 10 holders control 91.92%, adjusted figure may still include pooled custody (untagged exchanges, infrastructure contracts) due to tagging coverage limits; exclusions require positive identification.

TVL profile6.5

TVL is 93% below this protocol's own peak and has not recovered, so the revenue that funds audits, bounties and maintenance is largely gone while the contracts still hold value; TVL change (37%) is within a stable range.

Team factors3.0

Anonymous team, a weak but real signal on its own.

Historical incidents2.3

No known own or inherited incidents.

Protocol age1.5

794 days live, past the ~1yr floor; treated the same as any older protocol, not scored progressively safer with more age.

Bug bounty0.7

Has a bug bounty program, up to $10 000 000, hosted on Immunefi.
