[ PROOFECONOMY ]™GlossaryOriginSpecsMinted Proof of Efficacy
Minted Proof of Efficacy (MPoE) is Proof of Efficacy built from Minted Attack Proofs: each adversarial action against the system under test is issued as a unique, chained, externally anchored record, and the efficacy result is computed from those records. Anyone holding the chain can check every attack behind the claim.
What it means
Proof of Efficacy answers whether a system produced the required outcome under real adversarial pressure. Minted Proof of Efficacy answers it in a form that survives outside the test: every attack behind the result is a Minted Attack Proof, and the result can be recomputed from the chain.
How it is built
- Commit the test, the outcome and the threshold before the run.
- Run each adversarial action against the system in a customer-like environment.
- Attest each outcome at capture by an independent witness.
- Mint each attested outcome as a chained record.
- Anchor the chain head outside the issuer’s control.
- Compute the efficacy result from the records, not from a summary.
How it differs from adversarial exposure validation
| Adversarial exposure validation (AEV) | Minted Proof of Efficacy | |
|---|---|---|
| Output | Findings and reports for one buyer | Chained, anchored proof records |
| Who can check it | The buyer, inside their environment | Anyone holding the chain |
| Evidence of each attack | Logs and screenshots | One minted record per attack |
| Tamper evidence | Depends on the tool | Hash chain plus external anchor |
Validation tells you. Minted proof shows anyone.
