Security

Security is Hyper Chain's highest priority

Hyper Chain protocol design explicitly states the cryptographic assumptions and security properties.

In summary, the protocol asserts that funds deposited into Hyper Chain will have the same level of security as if they were held in an Ethereum account, provided that the cryptographic assumptions are valid and correctly implemented. In particular:

• Users do not need to monitor the network.

• Private keys can be held in cold storage.

• Validators can not steal funds or corrupt the Hyper Chain state in any way.

• Users can withdraw their assets onto the mainnet, regardless of cooperation from Hyper Chain zkNode and zkProver.

The protocol employs several mechanisms to ensure these guarantees, which are elaborated in this session.
