20. Is the type of smart contract ownership clearly indicated? (%)

Answer: 50%

Ownership is not really clearly indicated in this location. . They indicate the power of governance clearly. In the description of "OnlyOwner", it is indicated changes are actually instigated on the Sommelier Cosmos chain that then send the deployment via the Gravity Bridge. So ownership becomes who runs the Steward that deploys to Gravity Bridge. After some digging, it appears functionally to be an EOA, owned by Sommelier. After all this, 50% score.

Percentage Score Guidance:

100%

The type of ownership is clearly indicated in their documentation. (OnlyOwner / MultiSig / etc)

50%

The type of ownership is indicated, but only in the code. (OnlyOwner / MultiSig / etc)

Admin Control information could not be found

60%

Weak transaction signing process (3 or more elements)

No transaction signing process evident

Evidence of audits of signers following the process add 20%

24. Is there sufficient Timelock documentation? (%)

Answer: 0%

This protocol has no timelock documentation. There is a deployed timelock contract, but we don't know where it is used what the delay is.

No Timelock information was documented OR no timelock length was identified.

Oracles

50%

This section goes over the documentation that a protocol may or may not supply about their Oracle usage. Oracles are a fundamental part of DeFi as they are responsible for relaying tons of price data information to thousands of protocols using blockchain technology. Not only are they important for price feeds, but they are also an essential component of transaction verification and security. These questions are explained in this document.

26. Is the protocol's Oracle sufficiently documented? (%)

Answer: 100

The protocol's oracle source is well documented at this location. The contracts dependent are identified. There is relevant software function documentation.

Score Guidance:

100%

If it uses one, the Oracle is specified. The contracts dependent on the oracle are identified. Basic software functions are identified (if the protocol provides its own price feed data). Timeframe of price feeds are identified. OR The reason as to why the protocol does not use an Oracle is identified and explained.

75%

The Oracle documentation identifies both source and timeframe, but does not provide additional context regarding smart contracts.
