Videos from Ethereum-focused Empire Hacking
Summary: On December 12, 2017, over 150 attendees gathered at Datadog's office for the final Empire Hacking meetup of the year, focused on writing and hacking secure smart contracts. Speakers included Jon Maurelian of Consensys Diligence on Ethereum security, Sophia D'Antoine on Solidity and Ethereum CTF challenges, Mark Mossberg on symbolic execution of EVM bytecode with Manticore, and Paul Makowski on the PolySwarm threat intelligence token.
What's compelling: The session on exploiting Solidity and Ethereum CTF challenges shows that the attack surface of smart contracts was already concrete enough to build competitions around it, and the tools demonstrated there are the same class of tooling an attacker would use against a token launch or decentralized app.
