Slashing

Anyone can slash during the slashing window of an epoch. The caller will receive half of the slashed amount. If the caller is a staked executor, the reward will to go their internal balance within the Coordinator contract, otherwise the caller is rewarded by a ERC-20 transfer. The other half of the slashed amount goes to the protocol. In EES there are two situations where an active executor can be slashed:

1. Designation inactivity - if an executor is designated for a round in which they do not call the executeBatch function.

2. Committing without revealing - if an executor calls commit during an epoch without doing the followup reveal call during the same epoch.

Each of these comes with a different slashing amount stored on-chain as inactiveSlashingAmountPerModule and commitSlashingAmountPerModule. The actual slashed amount is either of these multiplied by the number of modules the executor has registered for. For specific deployment values please refer to Deployments.
