Bridge · separate security gate
Not part of Core v1.
A liquidity-backed bridge between Ethereum MRV and native MRV, with explicit ledgers, guardian-attested cancellation and settlement, and no wrapped token. Its contracts are built and tested; it is not running on the Minerva testnet.
Status
- Contracts and relayer
- LOCALLY TESTED
- 42 Foundry tests including ledger invariant fuzzing; relayer, indexer and monitor test suites pass
- Minerva testnet deployment
- PLANNED
- The relaunched testnet genesis carries no bridge contracts; installation is a planned step
- Ethereum side
- PLANNED
- A Sepolia deployment under Minerva names has not been made; the previous deployment is not used
- Guardian keys
- IMPLEMENTED
- Guardian attestations are classical (EIP-191) signatures; this is a known gap against the exact claim
- Real-value launch
- PLANNED
- A separate gate: audit, PQ-controlled guardians, live testnet proof, loss-allocation policy
Risk, in plain terms
Liquidity model
V1 is a pure liquidity pool. LP principal can become unavailable while bridge demand consumes Ethereum-side liquidity; fees, caps and epoch rewards constrain, not remove, that risk.
Guardians
Releases need a guardian threshold on both chains; a relayer alone moves nothing. The guardian keys are classical today, so bridged funds are outside the post-quantum claim.
Cancellation
Refunds follow evidence, never a timer: a destination must have recorded the message as expired before guardians sign a cancellation. Double payout is impossible by construction.
Nothing live
No bridge contract holds value on the Minerva testnet or on Ethereum under Minerva's name. Treat any site claiming otherwise as unrelated.
