web3 security is broken.
Working on DeFi in 2020, I found projects were paying thousands for audits - and waited months for their completion.
Not to mention, audits only cover a point in time and are not continuous security solutions.
Thankfully, there are new options 👇

2. New audit firms are more efficient.
In addition to creating educational content,
@0xOwenThurm
offers a "pay-per-vulnerability" option through his firm
@GuardianAudits
.
This model is more cost-effective for projects and incentivizes better security practices from the start.

The disruption of the auditing industry was inevitable imo
During peak bull, projects were paying > 6 figures and waiting months for them to finish
Not sustainable anon

3. Decentralized audits.

Met someone yesterday who said they didn’t get smart contracts because governments and legal systems can’t intervene on outcomes.
“It’s just code enforcing code.”
Yes, exactly

1. One of the most innovative projects in web3 security is
@code4rena
.
C4 introduced "audit contests," where individual auditors hunt for vulnerabilities in contracts to claim a prize pool.
C4 benefits project owners by having multiple auditors analyze your code, versus one.

6. Better tooling.
Historically, auditors have used developer-facing tools for their security work. Better tooling has now been introduced.
We built

for auditors - enabling them to analyze code, explain code with AI, find bugs, generate audit reports, and more!

4. Independent Auditors.
There are many advantages to having an independent auditor review your code. Not only is it cost-effective, but independent auditors tend to be more readily available. Individuals such as

,
@bytes032
, and others deliver exceptional work.
