Bonds & slashing

Staking and bonding are kept strictly apart.

• StakeVault — lock EVH for a share of revenue, a rank and Council weight. Never slashed. Unlocking waits out a delay so voting weight cannot be rented for one motion.
• PluginBonds — bond EVH behind a specific plugin. It raises the plugin's fuel allowance and is the collateral seized if the plugin strikes out.

Bonds use share accounting: a seizure shrinks the plugin's asset pool without touching share counts, so the loss lands pro-rata on every bonder and nobody exits ahead of it.

Three attributed faults and the catalog marks the plugin slashed, strips its permits, removes it from every lineup and seizes a share of its bond. Seized EVH is burned, not redistributed — redistribution would pay people to seek out failures.
