Loss of Liveness

Loss of Liveness

A final_timeout timelock in the Collateral Vault safeguards the Borrower in the event that the DCM or the Side Chain becomes unresponsive. In such cases, all locked BTC collateral is returned to the Borrower, mitigating liveness risks associated with non-Bitcoin components.

The final_timeout must occur after the loan’s Maturity Time.
