-* For the safety of crosslinks a minimum committee size of 111 is [recommended](https://vitalik.ca/files/Ithaca201807_Sharding.pdf). (Unbiasable randomness with a Verifiable Delay Function (VDF) will improve committee robustness and lower the safe minimum committee size.) The shuffling algorithm generally ensures (assuming sufficient validators) committee sizes at least `TARGET_COMMITTEE_SIZE // 2`.
