Safe contract addresses are determined by the initializer function and a nonce. In order to deploy a Safe to the same address on multiple networks it is important to ensure the following conditions are met: Same factory address is used on both networks Same singleton address used on both networks Same nonce used on both networks The same initializer payload is used on both networks This guide includes addresses for the latest v1.4.1 release of Safe. If the Safe you are trying to replicate is an earlier version you must find the old singleton address. This can be found in your original Safe creation transaction (see below) Factory

The SEAL Battlenet initiative developed through discussions with SEAL members at the SEAL Assembly 2024. Concept Overview SEAL Battlenet is a live adversarial environment where teams can deploy and test new protocol versions with realistic network behavior prior to deploying on public main networks. Battlenet allows for rapid iteration to improve web3 security by creating a feedback loop between protocols, attackers, and security professionals in a controlled environment. What does success look like? We stop seeing the same types of exploits and vulnerabilities make their way into production because they are caught at an earlier stage, preventing harm to users and protocols. Alternatively, more unique bugs, exploits, and failure conditions means that Battlenet is working. What does failure look like? We continue to see the same issues exploited on Battlenet over and over, and continue to see them on mainnet chains as well. This would indicate that the feedback loop is not working, protocol teams are not improving, and we have not improved the safety of crypto.

Previous demo link: https://hackmd.io/@shield3/HypAXccXT Summary This demo shows an example implementation of Shield3's policy engine & RPC to support the gas subsidized transaction use case with Syndicate. The goal is to determine whether or not a subsidized user transaction, and a corresponding subsidy transaction should be submitted based on a set of rules provided by Syndicate. An account has been configured with the following policies: Allow subsidized transactions to specific contracts only Allow value transfers below a max subsidy amount Allow subsidy transactions for 'fresh' accounts (nonce < x)NOTE this is an optional alternative to tracking how many subsidies a wallet has received. If the wallet has been used a certain amount of times we could assume they can get some gas for themselves to continue transacting

Misconfigured transactions, user errors and malicious transaction requests are responsible for a large amount of preventable losses in crypto. Automated transaction policies at the wallet or RPC layer are one approach to mitigating these losses. In this article, we present a library for decoding transaction payloads to detect max slippage of DEX transactions on Uni V2, V3, and Universal Router, a policy implemented as RPC middleware, and a method for using Cryo with Python to back test the effectiveness and calculate preventable slippage of previously executed trades What Is A Transaction Policy (and why)? Smart contracts define the permissible actions of a protocol; however, permissable actions are very different from optimal actions. This gap leads to scenarios where decentralized application users are vulnerable to exploitation due to transaction misconfigurations. This isn't a flaw of smart contracts, but it highlights a gap in the traditional Web3 stack of application, wallet, contracts, and neutral RPCs. Many user protection features are ill-suited for the smart contract layer as they would be overly restrictive and break the open, composable nature of DeFi. And while applications and wallets can help educate and guide users towards safe transactions, they can benefit from an additional external validation of the user's intended actions. We introduce transaction policies as an RPC middleware to perform the validation and act as a check on transactions coming from wallets. This middleware is supported by a robust policy framework which interprets complex transactions, adds critical context, and takes action to protect users from mistakes or malicious activity. tPGj-5ixJ-87dW31ator6cW4lVJjdDp-e2TJMNR2MO4

For compliance-focused business leaders, blockchain technology presents a paradox. On one hand, it offers transformative potential for unlocking new markets and removing barriers to accessing financial services. On the other, it comes fraught with challenges such as regulatory uncertainty, security vulnerabilities, and complex, interconnected dependencies. The solution to unlock the full potential of blockchain based finance is a robust routing and policy layer, designed to make applications more secure, compliant, and effective. In this article, Shield3 and Blockscience present both an architecture for building this layer, and a instrumenting to meet the needs of enterprises building blockchain based applications. Elevating the Status of Blockchain for Enterprise Applications While blockchain and smart contracts define a foundation of permissible actions, they do not guide users toward actions that are strategically optimal or compliant with existing regulations. This is not a flaw in blockchains, as they are intended to be open and permissionless by design. However this presents major challenges for the business leaders wanting to offer blockchain based applications, implementers charged with deploying these applications, and compliance teams working to mitigate compliance and security risks. This is where the concept of a routing and policy layer becomes critical. Acting as the operational "brains," this layer resides above the blockchain, navigating complex transactions, enriching them with necessary context, and enforcing compliance and security protocols. The integration of such an intelligent layer enables the next-generation of financial applications that adhere to regulatory standards and scale efficiently, all without compromising the decentralized nature of blockchain technology.

AWS SageMaker is a managed ML platform that provides a Jupyter notebook interface to build data pipelines and train models. Cryo is a tool to extract data from the Ethereum Blockchain. This post will show you how to set up notebooks in SageMaker to analyze data extracted by Cryo. A forked version of Paradigm Data Portal and the notebooks from this post are available here: https://github.com/ipatka/paradigm-data-portal/tree/s3/notebooks The Paradigm Data Portal hosts a public dataset of Ethereum data extracted by Cryo. The portal can be installed as a CLI tool or imported as a Python package. While you can extract this data yourself with Cryo, downloading the datasets from PDP is the quickest way to get started. Setting up SageMaker If you do not have a SageMaker Studio environment set up already, follow this tutorial to create one: Amazon SageMaker Studio. Working with S3

by Michael Zargham, Isaac Patka, Geoffrey Arone For compliance-focused business leaders, blockchain technology presents a paradox. On one hand, it offers transformative potential for unlocking new markets and removing barriers to accessing financial services. On the other, it comes fraught with challenges such as security vulnerabilities, regulatory uncertainty, and systemic risks. The solution to unlock the full potential of blockchain-based financial applications is a robust, automated, yet practical policy framework. Shield3 has developed a product suite which includes data infrastructure, a policy-writing language, a library of modular workflows, and monitoring dashboards. BlockScience is collaborating with Shield3 to provide enterprise clients with custom AI-powered policies that support the enforcement of their compliance requirements and protect consumers. Instrumenting organizations with tools to select and enforce their security and compliance policies closes a critical gap, especially for enterprises leveraging (or hoping to leverage) blockchain technology. In this piece, Shield3 and BlockScience present the architecture for our framework. From "can do" to "should do" While blockchain and smart contracts define a foundation of permissible actions ("can do"), they do not guide users toward actions that are strategically optimal ("should do") given their business goals and constraints. Enterprises must make their own decisions about their strategic goals as well as how to operationalize regulatory guidance.
