Security Assessment

Strengths

1. Quantum-Resistant Cryptography: Hybrid Ed25519 + Dilithium signatures
2. Encrypted Wallet Storage: AES-256-GCM with Argon2 key derivation
3. Peer Reputation System: Automatic banning of misbehaving peers
4. Rate Limiting: Token bucket algorithm prevents DoS attacks
5. Partition Detection: Multiple signals for network isolation
6. Gas Metering: Proper metering prevents contract DoS
7. Treasury Limits: Spending caps prevent unauthorized withdrawals

Resolved Issues

Issue	Severity	Resolution
bech32 v0.11 API changes	Medium	✅ Updated to Hrp/segwit::encode
bip39 v2 API changes	Medium	✅ Updated to from_entropy/parse
HMAC type ambiguity	Low	✅ Added explicit type annotation
Tauri 2.0 emit API	Low	✅ Imported Emitter trait

Recommendations (Remaining)

Issue	Severity	Recommendation
Faucet wallet key in env var	Medium	Use secrets manager
External security audit	Critical	Required before mainnet
Formal verification	High	TLA+/Kani for consensus
