EthSystems Specifications

Specifications for confidential systems for institutions on Ethereum, by EthSystems. We design each protocol, test it in proof of concepts, and maintain it as editors.

Each specification states its trust model, threat model, and compliance boundary, so engineers, auditors, and regulators can read the same document. ERCs and other ecosystem standards may be outputs of this process.

The process is 1/COSS: one responsible editor per specification, and a lifecycle of raw → draft → stable. A Standards Track draft needs a reference implementation and an adversarial review. Stable needs independent third-party use.
