The ZK math had me really overwhelmed. Relearning math as an adult can be tough. If you feel the same way, this stuff breaks it down beautifully in ELI5 style! rareskills.io/blog

All that account abstraction related stuff is really gonna be a huge milestone in the mass adoption of crypto. With the momentum that EIP-4337 gave, I’m looking forward to having a 'Forgot Password' button on the @MetaMask interface. 😻 👇

Swapping and liquidity providing are among the most basic DeFi primitives, and the best place to delve into their essential concepts and understand them well is the UniswapV3 book by @jeiwan7: uniswapv3book.com/

Building mental models of DeFi mechanisms based on battle-tested approaches makes it easy to compare them to the ones spotted during a protocol audit. For instance, exploring veTokenomics - Curve, staking rewards calculations - SushiSwap, liquid staking derivatives - Lido, etc.

No more vault inflation attacks?😻😻 The new @OpenZeppelin update of ERC-4626 introduces a defense mechanism called the virtual offset. It comprises two key elements: 1) It utilizes a higher precision for representing shares compared to the underlying asset.

2) It puts virtual shares and virtual assets into the initial exchange rate computation. As the offset determines the rate of virtual shares to virtual assets is also enforce the conversion rate when the vault is empty, making the inflation attacks unprofitable.
