SLASH submits a permissionless equivocation proof that burns a validator's entire capability bond when they signed two conflicting values for the same consensus slot. Because capability bonds live only on Bitcoin, SLASH is a Bitcoin-chain action.
What you can do with it
- Punish double-signing with an on-chain, math-checked proof anyone can submit.
- Burn the offender's whole bond, active stake and cooling-down stake alike.
- Earn a bounty for catching equivocation, keeping the validator set honest.
