Dark matter in new physics

All of the signals rely on DM having EW interactions.
Alternative dark matter - All of the signals rely on DM having EW interactions. Is this required? NO! But the relic density argument strongly prefers weak interactions. CDM requirements Gravitational interacting (much weaker than electroweak) Stable Non-baryonic Neutral Cold (massive) Correct density DM -1 (gravitational coupling)-2 too small DM too big overclose the Universe S.
