Traditional PoS network security heavily relies on the price of native tokens, posing potential spiral risks. Chainbase designs a dual-staking model that requires validators to stake both C and ETH liquid staking tokens simultaneously, fundamentally enhancing the economic security of the network. This mechanism increases the cost of attacks; malicious actors not only need to hold a large amount of the native currency but must also control the corresponding ETH LSTs, causing the threshold for a 51% attack to grow exponentially.
Introducing high-market-cap external assets as collateral decouples network security from short-term fluctuations in the native currency. Even during extreme market volatility, Ethereum's massive economic scale can still provide solid protection for Chainbase. High-value DeFi protocols and institutional-level applications thus gain a reliable foundation of trust, supporting high-risk, high-value trading scenarios.
The dual-staking model also attracts enterprises and large protocols. It offers quantifiable security commitments, making Chainbase not just an efficient data platform but also a decentralized infrastructure with institutional-level security standards. Network security, economic models, and application scenarios are closely integrated, forming long-term competitive barriers.
