What Mechanism Can Be Implemented to Incentivize the Timely ‘Reveal’ of a Committed Transaction?

Protocols can incentivize a timely 'reveal' by requiring the user to stake a collateral deposit during the commitment phase. If the user successfully submits the reveal within the specified time window, the collateral is returned.

If the user delays or fails to reveal, the collateral is 'slashed' or forfeited to the protocol or to another party (like a proposer) as a penalty. This economic incentive ensures users follow through with their committed trade.
