# Cryptoeconomic Security The Vanna Network offers cryptoeconomic security in the form of a staking contract on the application layer. When inference nodes come online to participate in securing the network, they must post Vanna tokens as collateral in the staking contract. The staking contract enforces behavior of the inference nodes, with slashing conditions including but not limited to: 1. **zkML** - Generating proofs that are invalid and cannot be verified cryptographically 2. **opML** - Successful challenges to the inferences generated by the node 3. **zkFP** - Successful challenges to the inferences generated by the node, or the inability to generate a ZK SNARK proving the inference --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.vannalabs.ai/vanna-network/architecture/cryptoeconomic-security.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
