Is there evidence of simultaneous slashes in backtest logs? Direct, public evidence of simultaneous slashes in a large-scale restaking system is currently limited due to the novelty of EigenLayer and active AVSs. However, compelling analogous evidence exists. On Ethereum's Beacon Chain, while slashing events are individual, there are clear clusters of slashed validators that correlate in time, often pointing to common causes like staking pool configuration errors or buggy validator client releases. Furthermore, testnet activities for restaking protocols provide a form of backtest. On these testnets, researchers can and do simulate fault conditions, and preliminary analyses often show that faults are not randomly distributed but cluster among operators using similar software stacks or infrastructure providers.
