Asset Dependency Engine

One deterministic graph of every layer a token depends on.

A tokenized asset is a stack, not a contract address. The Asset Dependency Engine maps everything under a token — vault, underlying token, oracle, bridge, legal wrapper and collateral — into one graph.

How it reads a stack

The engine classifies each layer, resolves what sits under it, and reads it — recursively, up to 16 levels deep. A branch ends only at native ETH, attested off-chain backing, or a plain ERC-20 read.

Principle	What it means for you
Deterministic	The same asset at the same pinned blocks gives the same graph. Every traversal can be replayed.
Unsupported is a node	A layer the engine can’t read still appears, flagged with a reason. Nothing is silently left out.
Read-only inspector	Explorer shows sealed graph states. It never recomputes a read in your browser.

What it doesn’t do

• It doesn’t guess a dependency it can’t classify; it flags the node.
• It doesn’t re-run on every block. Runs are manual, scheduled or replayed.
• It doesn’t score risk. It shows the dependencies and leaves the judgment to you.
