Results are out and I’m grateful to have scaled through 🙏
Eviction week came with its own challenges— no light, rising fuel prices— but we still showed up
Proud of my @Web3Bridge classmates. Resilience really is a builder’s superpower
@Ebunayo08 had too much fun doing this 🙄
A smart contract got drained for $26.5 million because of an integer overflow.
The contract was written in Solidity 0.6.10. It had been live since 2021.
If you're learning Solidity right now, this is the most important exploit to understand. 🧵
Just built a Student Attendance System dApp
Completed as part of Week 4 assignments at @Web3Bridge — deploying a student attendance smart contract on-chain.
Learning, building, and shipping.

We helped our devs connect with their loved ones this Valentine’s 💌
Let’s just say… some confessions were made 👀
Looks like @VitalikButerin has a big crush too 😂❤️
Again we say happy Valentine’s Day from all of us at Web3bridge. ❤️

How to use this list (important)
Don’t clone everything.
Do this instead:
- Pick 1 repo
- Run it locally
- Break something intentionally
- Fix it
- Write what you learned
That’s how real Web3 builders are made.
Save this - you’ll come back to it.
Smart contracts are supposed to be immutable.
So how do protocols ship updates?
How upgradeable smart contracts actually work (and why you should be careful with them) 🧵
