rubric v1.7.0

Audit firm tier

Frax Finance's assessment for RD-F-005 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Tier-1 firms engaged: Trail of Bits (7 engagements, highest-tier Level 4 effort) and Certora (BAMM FV+audit). Tier-2: ChainSecurity, Zellic, Code4rena, CertiK. 'Frax Security Cartel' — independence not verifiable; no public member list found across multiple searches; reports hosted in protocol's own GitHub repo rather than an independent firm index. However, the presence of ToB (Tier-1) and Certora (Tier-1) for core contracts is sufficient for green on this factor. The Frax Security Cartel independence concern is flagged in issues.
