Systemic Contagion Testing

Systemic Contagion Testing evaluates how a failure in one protocol or asset class spreads to others within the interconnected crypto ecosystem. Because many protocols are built on top of each other using composable smart contracts, a single vulnerability or insolvency can have far-reaching effects.

This testing involves mapping the dependencies between protocols and simulating the impact of a total loss in one area. It helps identify "too big to fail" nodes and encourages the development of better risk mitigation strategies.

It is essential for ensuring the long-term stability and maturity of the decentralized financial system.
