Bridge rate-limiter / chain-pause as positive mitigant
mETH Protocol's assessment for RD-F-185 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
cmETH L1cmETHAdapter (LayerZero OFT, ~$70.6M) shows no confirmed per-window rate-limiter in available contract data. mETH core LST has no bridge (Ethereum L1 only). Ethereum mainnet has no validator-executed emergency chain pause capability. The $70.6M cmETH bridge exposure lacks a confirmed rate-limiter mitigant. Factor evaluates as yellow (partial — no negative, but positive mitigant not confirmed).

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.
