Can asynchronous execution across AVSs reduce the likelihood of cross-protocol slashing cascades? Yes, architectural asynchronicity is a powerful tool for containing risk. If AVSes are designed to operate on independent execution cycles and do not require synchronous, atomic composability with each other, a failure in one AVS is less likely to directly trigger a failure in another. It breaks the "tight coupling" that enables cascades. For example, an oracle AVS updating its prices does not need to be in the same atomic block as a bridge AVS using those prices. By introducing time delays and checkpointing between systems, a bug or slash in one module can be identified and quarantined before it propagates, effectively firewalling the rest of the ecosystem from a single point of failure.
