- I was looking for some resources on MEV and HOLY MOLY. This is CRAZY. Somebody compiled all the MEV ALPHA in a single place! thedailyape.notion.site/MEV-8713cb4c2d…
- The best book I've read this year: Economics and Math of Token Engineering and DeFi It has more insights on tokenomics/DeFi than any book I've ever read. Here are 70 questions that will change the way you think about tokenomics forever: 🧵
- This is the MOST ALPHA research paper about smart contract security EVER. 🧵 THEORY: They examined 516 smart contract security bugs & exploits. FACTS: They applied the THEORY in @code4rena contests & bug bounties and received a total prize of $102k 🤯 github.com/ZhangZhuoSJTU/…
- I consistently hit $35K+ a month despite having a full-time job.
- Just crushed $200K for the year. 0 → 3k: 4 months 3k → 200k: 6 months Think twice before you consider quitting early on.
- > be me > audit a project > quote is $30K > they propose to pay in project tokens instead of cash > i refuse > a few months later the token goes up 5000%
- I want to be a TOP smart contract auditor. Solidity is a MUST HAVE, but building a strong foundation in EVM is crucial. Starting this week, I'll be diving deep into the EVM. Today, I'm sharing my ORDERED STEP-BY-STEP study plan. Join me, and let's tackle it together! 👇
- In Jan 2023, I earned from auditing $0.75. Five months later: $52,500 banked for the month ------------------------------- 1. ~42.5k from solo audits 2. 10k from contests 3. Five solo audits for a month -------------------------------- Here are my 4 dead-simple principles:
- Arbitrum is paying $625/hour for governance proposal audits. This is the equivalent of a $1.3M annual salary. We're just getting started.
- Absolutely brilliant book, it covers: • Balancer • Uniswap V2/V3 • Curve Finance Definitely impacted my DeFi knowledge more than any other resource.
- CryptoBitlord just airdropped 400M of Molly. The contract has critical vulnerability. It allows the owner to "manually swap" the tokens for ETH. However, he maliciously set the minAmountOut to 0. Then, he will sandwich the swaps, swap all the tokens for 0 ETH, then blame MEV
- Absolutely crazy explanation of the Ethereum block architecture
