What is INTERCHAIN SECURITY?
summary
A concrete design: a cross-chain validation module packages a provider chain’s validator set and voting power into IBC packets and a consumer chain keeps a registry and uses that set for block production while retaining the ability to slash remotely. Rewards flow back via IBC token transfers into the provider distribution module. Milestones are full-set security (governance to share the entire validator set), partial opt-in (validators register and earn extra reward), and layered security (local plus imported validators). Open issues include slashing verifiability and epoch asynchrony.
