I’m sorry but if you’re paying $200k for a smart contract engineer you’re ngmi

any solid dev should be able to write solidity with the help of chatgpt

“no, the smart contract needs to be perfect and be audited” bro hit $100k in daily volume then worry about it being perfect

Bad take, if you're handling user funds, in a pvp environment where you don't have the ability to reverse transactions, then security needs to be a top priority or else its existential risk to your project

none of that will matter when you get hacked and lose user funds. company and product value go straight to 0

yes but getting hacks means you’re probably hitting larger txn volume
no one’s gonna hack unlonely contracts right now there’s too little money flowing through them
also depends what you’re building — some cases security is more important than others

my point is hit a larger volume number then get audited
99% of crypto products haven’t hit this number yet tho (unlonely sure as hell hasn’t)

I'd say risk is harder to gain back user trust after they've been hacked. If you hit 1m in volume but then everybody lost their funds, would it have been worth it to you?
