"Code is Law" is the blockchain mantra, but the Criminal Code is above it. Deploying Smart Contracts designed with "backdoors" to drain user funds is not a computer error, it is a sophisticated computer fraud.
The Importance of Audits
If a developer launches a DeFi project without auditing it and knowing that critical vulnerabilities exist, the line between negligence and eventual intent blurs. At Alonso Sala, we investigate the source code in Solidity to detect if the "hack" was actually an "inside job" (rug pull) disguised as a security breach.
Asset Recovery
Tracing stolen funds through bridges and mixers requires state-of-the-art forensic tools. In these cases, speed in requesting blocking precautionary measures on centralized exchanges is crucial.
