rubric v1.7.0

Cross-chain bridge unverified mint pattern

Babylon Protocol's assessment for RD-F-106 — scored not_applicable on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Babylon is not a token bridge and does not mint wrapped assets. BTC does not leave Bitcoin — no source-chain deposit + destination-chain mint pattern exists. Vigilante relayers submit BTC header data (not asset-transfer proofs) to Genesis chain. No canonical bridge contract exists. Structurally inapplicable.
