Proud to win this one! We haven't previous stableswap math experience, but we always want to challenge us, so we can improve.

Tempo chain just went live, so here are 3 things devs and auditors should watch for 👇

State creation is significantly more expensive. Transfers to new addresses cost ~300k gas. Contract deployments cost 5-10x more than on Ethereum. Any griefing vector that forces your project's wallet to initialize new addresses or deploy contracts hits much harder here. Pay attention to those paths.

Gas is paid in stablecoins via a preference cascade. The protocol picks the fee token by checking these levels in order, stopping at the first match: 1. tx-level: explicit fee_token field on the transaction 2. account-level: fee payer's preference set via FeeManager 3. TIP-20 level: if you're calling transfer, transferWithMemo, or startReward on a USD-denominated TIP-20 stablecoin, that stablecoin automatically becomes the fee token 4. DEX level: if you're calling swapExactAmountIn or swapExactAmountOut on the Stablecoin DEX, the tokenIn argument is used as the fee token 5. pathUSD as the final fallback The gotcha: if no explicit preference is set and the user does a TIP-20 transfer, the protocol silently picks that same stablecoin for fees. They need enough balance for the transfer AND the max fee.

Just web3sec these days

@s4muraii77 What about the FOMO? 🤔

speed of first bugs != actual speed. If your audit agents tells you 15 bugs and you have to verify them, that is not really faster for a complete audit, actually can be slower. You could use AI to understand codebases faster which can indeed speed things up, but that does not require a custom agent, a vanilla model will do.

@s4muraii77 Speed, FOMO?

@nmirchev8 what would be the reason of doing the second option except mostly for fun?

@Fav_Truffle One day

I have a dream.

Really good article about a 1 in a 1000 bugs, might be worth the 3min read

Once you wrote code Then you reviewed code Now you review the reviewers What's comming next, anon?

Imagine charging 4 figures for an "AI audit" with a dashboard. Anthropic themselves price the compute like an expensive dinner, not like a used car. Here is what a 25M token audit should cost: - ~$123 - 52 agents - 1,593 lines, full analysis. The gap shall close 🔜🔜🔜

Bear market is great filter to all "lucrative" protocols During a bull, everyday you read about another opportunity, a new protocol with large investments... so it must be innovative and good However, in the bear you see who survives and where it is safe to stash cash long term

Structure really matters when to pipeline becomes large

@4mj3x @OpenZeppelin Congrats!

I'm now officially an @OpenZeppelin Blockchain Security Researcher! 🥳 I've always respected the impact they had on blockchain security, and I can't wait to contribute to making the space safer for everyone!

Thanks @eboadom, @andy_koz and @bgdlabs for holding providers like @Certora to high security standards over the past four years. Here are some of the things we learned and built together 🧵👇

I got my bike stolen 5 mins with claude and I have a running cron job to send me telegram messages with new listings for bikes from the biggest local second hand website (which apparently don't have this feature) Now that's a good use of AI
