rubric v1.7.0

Emergency-veto multisig present

Curve Finance's assessment for RD-F-040 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Emergency DAO (5-of-9) can kill pools and gauges — a form of operational veto. However, eDAO cannot cancel in-progress or queued governance votes/proposals. There is no governance-vote-cancellation mechanism analogous to a Compound Guardian role. The operational kill-switch exists but not the proposal-veto function.
