Bridge rate-limiter / chain-pause as positive mitigant

Evidence summary #

DeBridgeGate has per-asset maxAmount cap (static single-tx cap, not time-windowed outflow rate-limiter) and a pause() function (chain-pause capability). DLN is 0-TVL intent-based — rate-limiting not applicable to DLN side. Yellow: emergency pause present; time-windowed outflow rate-limiter absent.

Methodology #

Determine whether the bridge implements a per-window outflow rate-limiter (and at what cap), and whether the protocol team can trigger a chain-level or validator-set emergency pause.
