🛡️ TruthSpec Manifest: Slashing Immunity Protocol
This manifest defines the behavioral guarantees, contagion containment logic, and validator quarantine mechanisms for QuantumChain’s slashing immunity subsystem. It ensures that validator penalties are enforced with precision, fairness, and systemic resilience.
✅ Semantic Contract
| Element |
Description |
| Intent |
Prevent slashing contagion and isolate compromised validators |
| Trigger Conditions |
Validator misbehavior, telemetry anomaly, governance slashing proposal |
| Behavioral Promise |
Slashing is scoped, logged, and prevented from cascading across the network |
| Mutation Safety |
Immunity logic is immutable during emergency halt or override |
| Observability |
Slashing events timestamped and linked to validator telemetry and entropy |
| Governance Influence |
Slashing thresholds and quarantine duration are runtime-mutable |

🧭 Notes
The slashing immunity protocol is QuantumChain’s defensive firewall. It enforces accountability, prevents systemic collapse, and ensures validator penalties are precise, contained, and recoverable.
