Alert when a contract is paused or unpaused
Pausing stops deposits, withdrawals or transfers for every user. SmartAlert watches Paused(account) and Unpaused(account): a pause is a critical alert, an unpause is info.
The rule
This is how the rule looks in the new-alert form. You enter the contract address when you create it.

Why it matters
If your guardian paused the contract, the rest of the team and support need to know now. If someone else did, it is an incident.
