★ Empty cToken-style market (zero supply/borrow)
M^0's assessment for RD-F-070 — scored not_applicable on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
M^0 is an original, non-Compound-fork protocol with no cToken markets, no borrow book, and no share-based vault accounting. The donation/empty-market exploit pattern requires Compound V2 fork architecture (cToken totalSupply==0 + totalBorrow==0 at market initialization). Neither the MinterGateway (0xf7f9638cb444D65e5A40bF5ff98ebE4ff319F04E) nor the MToken (0x866A2BF4E572CbcF37D5071A7a58503Bfb36be1b) implement cToken accounting. Taxonomy explicitly states: RD-F-070 is 'N/A for non-Compound-fork protocols.' ★ critical factor — not_applicable does not count as a critical red.

Methodology #
Determine whether any listed Compound V2-fork market has `totalSupply == 0` and `totalBorrow == 0`, the precondition for a donation-exploit.
