I’ve run Ti sprocket bolts before and had zero problems.

Same here. 3rd bike I've run them on. One bike I ran the same set for 40 hours. Another bike (new set) for 12. Current bike (New set) has 19. No issues.

You really shouldn't see any issues with a sprocket bolt, assuming you tighten them properly. Biggest issue with a lot of ti bolts is the threads are usually cut and not rolled so they are susceptible stress fractures. Don't be an idiot and you should be fine.

Why would you buy them if you don’t trust them?

What bike are you putting the ceracarbon fiber rear sprocket on?
How long did it take to get the rear sprocket?

YZ250F (2021), i ride mx only...

I contacted them and they gave me estimated delivery time of 31/12/2021 but they said it might ship sooner

This is the part number for their lightest atomic sprocket for the yz250f (CC5.150.06.130.50), It weights 283 grams

Do you use loctite on the titanium bolts and do you reduce torque and by how much?

I don't use ti bolts but I did stay at a holiday inn express last night Smile . Personally I would use something primer less like loctite 243 and I would not reduce torque. If you use another brand make sure it will cure with inactive metals.
