Quorum achievable via single-entity flash loan

Frax Finance's assessment for RD-F-037 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Alpha quorum = 40% of total veFXS supply. veFXS is non-transferable and time-locked — cannot be flash-loan-acquired. Even Omega's 4% quorum is protected by the same checkpoint mechanism. Single-entity achieving 40% via flash loan is structurally impossible.
