Impact
From the direct feedback we receive, both on Discord & Telegram as well as in person during conferences, we know that our work is helping shape the way Ethereum and L2 ecosystems evolve. - The risk assessment and stages frameworks serve as a north star for projects in terms of what they should prioritize in their roadmaps. - Our contract monitoring ensures that no changes to the security parameters of any L2 go unnoticed. - The introduction of TVL breakdown spurred discussion on how we should treat L2 assets depending on their origin. - Our work on L2 upgradeability is now the backbone of security council designs in various protocols. - Due to our active participation in governance, we’re now experimenting with different forms of involvement and outreach to the community.
