Attesters & co-signers

Who signs a mint: DogeSoftBridge threshold 2 of 3 on DogeOS. Attester changes are timelocked.

Live

A mint is an L2 mintFromL1Tx signed by registered attesters. Doge Soft's bridge service runs one of the registered attester keys; see the current model below. The user signs the L1 lock and the L2 burn. They do not sign the mint.

Threshold is 2 of 3. attesterThreshold() on DogeSoftBridge 2.6.0-ds-standard 0x762d952DDc9bbF11b8442347D2D1B66934703036 on DogeOS Chikyū testnet (chain id 6281971) returns 2. Registered attesters are 0xBD167EA0e54833117732e4FE1EC99e632F033dF5, 0x4aa6Fb82fc0a30117Db2d384D247268F7aB4437a, and 0xd4Cf42Fc283974FDA7d869ebee7F86d8f060D02b. One signature is not enough. Attester changes are timelocked.

Plain English

  1. User locks DRC-20 on Dogecoin L1.
  2. Each attester independently checks: “This txid:vout is real, confirmed, correct tick/amount, paid to custodian.”
  3. Each attester signs the mint message with their own key.
  4. The DogeSoftBridge contract on the destination chain counts signatures. If count ≥ threshold → mint. Otherwise → reject.

The on-chain threshold is 2, so one signature is not enough. Attester changes are timelocked.

Attester set & DogeOS co-signers

Attesters are registered Ethereum addresses on the bridge contract (isAttester). The threshold (attesterThreshold) is public on-chain.

Current model:

  • Doge Soft server signer — runs Core + indexer verification, signs with operator-controlled key.
  • Ecosystem co-attesters (partners) — separate organizations with their own attester keys and their own Core + Doge Soft Inscription Standard verification before signing.

Partnership integration includes a co-attester slot on the DogeOS bridge contract. Plain requirements:

  • Attester keys are separate — each partner holds and uses their own signing key.
  • Verification is Core + Inscription Standard — not “trust DogeSoft’s API response.”
  • A co-attester must be able to re-check the L1 outpoint themselves (own Dogecoin Core + own Doge Soft Inscription Standard parse) and refuse to sign if tick, amount, owner, custodian output, or confirmations do not match.
  • Re-reading only the DogeSoft indexer API is not independent verification — that is a second signature on one truth source.

We do not pretend a second full wallet / explorer / AMM / oracle stack already exists. The co-attester requirement is: Core + Doge Soft Inscription Standard parser + own key + right to refuse on divergence.

⚠️

Honest disclosure: Multiple signatures over a shared verification pipeline is weaker than each attester running fully isolated infrastructure. The partnership program exists to add independent operators and keys — not to pretend competing indexers already exist for Doginals/DRC-20 production.

What each attester checks before signing

  • L1 transaction exists on Core and meets l1ConfirmationsRequired.
  • The DRC-20 transfer to custody D9K5fqJ6vhs3FfUgiEn69SYZJQQvtsB2Su carries BRIDGE_L1_DEPOSIT and a ref whose signed record matches the recipient and nonce.
  • The indexer confirms the sender held the DU$T before sending.
  • Tick and amount match the bridge session and indexed DRC-20 state.
  • The ref has not been used before (refs are single-use).
  • Reserve attestation is fresh (under 7 days) and the mint stays under the 1,000,000 DU$T cap.

Partner / embed program

Integrators who embed DogeSoft Bridge or route volume through DogeOS can apply for:

  • Registered co-attester address on the bridge contract.
  • Reference attester implementation (verify Core + Doge Soft Inscription Standard, sign digest — not indexer-API-only).
  • Published ABIs and verify playbook (Transparency).
