This solution is based on the Spiderchain federated attestation Bitcoin chain, utilizing a rotating multisignature Wallet structure to manage the flow of funds. Currently, a 2-of-3 signature mechanism is implemented, with plans to upgrade to a 12-of-16 signature mechanism in the future.

Transactions that reuse the same UTXO will be rejected by the network. This mechanism combines the staking penalty mechanism of PoS consensus to ensure the secure two-way bridging of cross-chain assets at both the technical and incentive levels. Source: wublock123
