Partial-drain test transactions

Evidence summary #

V2+V3 combined: V2 and V3 core contracts are immutable — no protocol-level admin-key drain is structurally possible. Neither version has a 5-year protocol-level exploit history. Signal deferred per T-09 methodology (v1 deferred set). Static dry run cannot establish a drain-precursor baseline without live mempool monitoring.

Detail #

V2 fully immutable (feeToSetter = address(0)); V3 core fully immutable (no proxy, no owner). The signal targets pre-strike partial drain test transactions that precede a larger drain event. For an immutable AMM with no admin key, no such sequence is possible at the protocol level. LP-level individual withdrawals are normal operations. Zero protocol-level exploit history for V2 (72 months) or V3 (60 months). Not_assessed per methodology: deferred signal requiring live mempool monitoring.

Methodology #

Detect one or more small-value outflows prior to a larger drain that match a known pre-strike pattern (low-value same-function calls from new wallet).
