Our team combines extensive experience in developing and monitoring smart contracts with a focus on bulletproof security for decentralized platforms.

We excel at economic modeling of blockchain ecosystems, enabling us to detect security issues that may elude others. This, combined with our ability to write high-performance code for interacting with nodes and on-chain protocols, positions us as a strong asset to the Security Council. Our hands-on experience running local nodes for various Layer 1 and Layer 2 solutions, alongside 24/7 on-call monitoring of our strategies and security events with rapid response times, ensures we are always prepared to act swiftly when needed.

Additionally, our team members have contributed to Llama Risk, helping to raise awareness of risks related to centralization and financial attacks within the blockchain space. By leveraging our deep expertise, including the use of minority clients and developing secure smart contracts, we aim to ensure that Arbitrum remains robust, scalable, and secure for the Ethereum community.
