What is Shentu (CTK)?

Deep Dive

1. Security Infrastructure

Shentu addresses blockchain vulnerabilities at every stage:
- Pre-development: Uses DeepSEA, a secure programming language backed by Yale/Columbia research, to mathematically verify code correctness.
- Post-deployment: The Security Oracle scans live transactions for risks (e.g., reentrancy attacks) and provides real-time scores.
- Incident response: Projects can integrate these scores to block unsafe interactions automatically.

2. ShentuShield Mechanism

A decentralized alternative to insurance:
- Collateral pools: Users stake CTK to back reimbursement claims, earning fees and staking rewards.
- Governance: CTK holders vote on claim approvals, balancing risk and rewards.
- Cross-protection: Covers assets lost on any supported chain (Ethereum, Cosmos, etc.), not just Shentu-based apps.

3. Cross-Chain Architecture

• Cosmos SDK: Enables IBC compatibility for cross-chain security queries.
• EVM layer: Supports Ethereum dApps via full bytecode compatibility.
• Hybrid VM: Shentu Virtual Machine (SVM) exposes security data natively, allowing smart contracts to adjust behavior based on risk scores.

Conclusion

Shentu positions itself as a blockchain "immune system," combining proactive security tools with community-driven financial safeguards. Its layered approach – from mathematically verified code to real-time threat interception – aims to reduce exploits while empowering users to manage residual risks. As decentralized systems grow more interconnected, can Shentu’s cross-chain security framework become a universal standard for trustless collaboration?
