DeFi Security Researcher ⚔️ Diving deep into the complexity ⚛️

[Flash 44 ⚛️ @2025Proj]

Earned Top 3 🏆 spot in this very competitive contest. Escalations are insane! 😤

Nevertheless, still happy to secure another protocol and got big reward from it.

Thank you @sherlockdefi and @beraborrow for the opportunity 🙏

This Year 2025 looks bright 😎

@TamayoNft Definitely you are not alone. I already make myself inactive in web3sec 6 months ago because I already the see the signs, that the market will go down further that even me im surprised codeArena will wind down operation.

@J4X_Security SEA dream is real.

I may now take a pause from contest and try unconventional approach. I hope I can still stay in web3 security after 3 years of trying, I’m losing hope as each day pass by.

Sorry for the long post. I just want to release my frustration.

Quite curious on how job market for web3 security researcher is doing right now for others. As per my own research, there is only handful of available jobs. I’m pretty sure it won’t exceed 50.

The job becomes so hard to entry.

The only opportunity left is joining the contest, which is not good situation right now. The contest is very few but thousands are participating. The value you can get is being diluted. Another thing is, judging becomes so unpredictable. It seems every judge has its own ruling.

Bugs thrive in complexity. 😎

Excellent deep-dive into Aave V4 Risk Premiums. Looks like someone took a look into the code to understand how Risk Premiums are implemented on Aave V4, perks of building in public.

Either you get elite or get left behind 💀

The inherent feature of Web3 security industry.

@HackenProof How to decipher tech with value vs tech with too much hype.

[Flash 44 ⚛️ @2025Proj]

@0x15_eth So sad to hear it from you. But this approach is quite effective, it forced me to submit a super solid finding that judge without hesitation make it valid.

@Al_Qa_qa Go to Sherlock discord, the true contest spirit is alive and kicking. 🥳

@0xfrsmln @code4rena I miss the golden age of C4.

[Flash 44 ⚛️ @2025Proj]

@TheWavexyz @sherlockdefi Bro, we need more contests in Sherlock haha.

[Flash 44 ⚛️ @2025Proj]

@0xGondarxyz C4 is used to be golden standard in contest judging. Gone are those days.

One of the most sinister attack vector i’ve ever seen. This is merciless. 💀
