Smart Contracts Without Security Risks
Workshop Description
Smart contracts have unlocked powerful new financial primitives. They have also introduced a class of risk the industry has been slow to confront honestly. This session challenges core assumptions around smart contract security, reliability, and financial assurance, and offers a rigorous framework for building with real confidence.
What You'll Learn
Why prevailing smart contract architectures introduce systemic security and reliability risks
What financial assurance means in practice for smart contract-based products
How to approach smart contract design with security as a first principle, not an afterthought
What a more rigorous framework for smart contract deployment looks like at enterprise scale
