Blockchain Bridges: A Security Perspective
Interoperability has been a long withstanding problem in the blockchain space. Many argue that the very benefits of decentralization and trustlessness that this technology is built on have resulted in a major communication gap between blockchains.
Metaverse: Virtual Wonderland Or Capitalist Dystopia?
Security and privacy are among the top issues expected to arise in the metaverse. Some have even gone so far as to say that the metaverse is capitalizing on users’ desire to escape from reality.
Achieving Security In Blockchain Part One: Outlining The Problem
A major pillar of blockchain technology is transparency. This means that any system built on blockchain is by definition public- a fact that introduces an entirely new set of vulnerabilities and threats. As a result, cleverly orchestrated hacks on blockchain solutions are not an uncommon feat. Even the biggest names in the field continue to suffer from attacks, resulting in losses equating to millions of dollars.Â
The DAO Dichotomy: Public Interest Or Personal Gain?
DAOs can be seen as the next step in achieving this vision, eliminating the use of intermediaries in corporate governance. Functioning via an interconnected network of smart contracts, these Decentralized Autonomous Organizations are essentially communities that are fully managed and owned by their members.
Cast Storage
Lets understand the smart contract storage model in Ethereum and EVM-based chains and how you can access the public and private variables of any smart contract deployed on the blockchain. We can do this by using cast storage.
