Governance
Overview
Robinhood Chain's protocol is governed by a Security Council of eight signers. Robinhood holds two of the eight seats, and the remaining six seats are held by independent institutions who maintain robust security protocols and have experience and credibility within the blockchain ecosystem. Routine actions require approval from six of the eight signers and are subject to a seven-day on-chain timelock before execution. Emergency actions bypass the timelock but require approval from seven of eight signers. Every signer is required to maintain secure signing infrastructure, support key rotation, and use institutional-grade key management.

Validators
Robinhood Chain uses BoLD (Bounded Liquidity Delay) for dispute resolution, secured by a permissioned set of validators. Validators monitor on-chain assertions and are capable of detecting and submitting fraud-proof challenges against invalid state assertions.
Robinhood Chain currently has two validators, operated by Offchain Labs and Alchemy.
