Numen Cyber Presents Smart Contract Security CTF & Sensor Development Competition — An Exciting Global Event to Enhance Smart Contract Security

Validated Project

We at Numen Cyber are excited to announce that we are launching our highly anticipated Smart Contract Security CTF & Sensor Development Competition. Our event is set to take place online from March 29–31 2023 and is open to participants worldwide.

Our goal is to enhance the security of smart contracts through education and hands-on experience. With a prize pool of more than USD 20K, we promise this event will be a thrilling and rewarding experience for all participants.

The Smart Contract Security CTF (Capture the Flags) segment will feature expert-created challenges and flag points for participants to bypass restrictions and reach the flag points through technical means. This will allow participants to showcase their technical prowess and problem-solving abilities. We will select winners based on the greatest number of points earned.

In the Sensor Development competition, participants will be required to create Sensor Bots that can effectively detect attacks on pre-deployed contracts. Our Numen Cyber Labs team will generate multiple transactions on the test net, some of which will be attacks, and participants must capture these attacks using their Sensor Bots. We will rank participants based on the number and timing of the captures.

Our event’s prize pool of over USD 20,000 is sponsored by top industry players, including COCloud, Alibaba Cloud, and The Collective Solution.

The 1st place winner of the Smart Contract CTF competition will receive 3,000 USDC, USD 3,000 worth of vouchers and an exclusive Genesis NFT from The Collective Solution. The NFT comprises club membership benefits and a complimentary VIP ticket worth close to USD 5,000 to NFT Bali 2023.

We are grateful for the technical support of Move Accelerator (Aptos), Underblock, and Chianseclabs. Our company aims to provide a platform for Web3 security enthusiasts to showcase their skills while simultaneously learning and competing with fellow professionals in the field.

With just 48 hours to prove their mettle, the competition promises to be a thrilling ride. Registration is now open, and participants can sign up on our website here: https://ctf.numencyber.com/.

  • Thai regulator to crack down on deceptive cryptocurrency ads

    Cryptocurrency advertisements that contain false, exaggerated, distorted, concealed, or misleading information violate Thai regulations. Regulatory agencies in major cryptocurrency markets have also taken similar measures to minimize investment losses in cryptocurrencies. For example, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) issued 450 illegal cryptocurrency advertising alerts in 2023 alone. In addition, in November 2023, the Spanish National Securities Market Commission, the main securities market regulatory agency, condemned fraudulent cryptocurrency asset promotion activities on X and reiterated the company's obligation to comply with local laws. The Thai Securities and Exchange Commission reminded cryptocurrency exchanges to include appropriate warnings about investment risks and to avoid attracting new users through special promotions. He warned that violating the above guidelines would result in "legal punishment".

  • EU member states prepare to enforce landmark crypto law, MiCA

    The European Union is set to enforce MiCA, a crypto law that mandates national regulators to license and supervise service providers. While the regulation is EU-wide, countries can implement slightly different technical standards that crypto firms must adhere to. MiCA's specialized rules for stablecoin issuers will take effect in a few months, followed by licensing and other requirements for crypto firms broadly in December. Each jurisdiction must transpose the EU regulation into local law, select which of their regulators will oversee crypto, and prepare to authorize token issuers and other service providers. Regulators are facing challenges in implementing the new legislation, particularly in terms of licensing requirements, and each country's crypto industry has its own concerns about implementation and proposed laws.

  • Wu Jiezhuang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, suggested that Hong Kong refer to IPO to provide innovative financing models for Web3

    Wu Jiezhuang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a member of the Hong Kong Legislative Council, wrote an article in the Hong Kong Wen Wei Po titled "Leading the Digital Economy by Adapting to the Web3 Trend". The article pointed out that developing Web3+ has both advantages and new challenges. The Hong Kong government has taken an important step in the direction of developing Web3 and the digital economy by formulating a short- to medium-term strategic development blueprint, ensuring that policies and resources are in place, and promoting the construction of Web3+ application scenarios. Focusing on Web3, establishing an international innovation financing platform can not only help Hong Kong leverage its traditional financial advantages, but also help it become a global digital technology center. It is suggested to refer to the mature mode of existing enterprises' IPOs in Hong Kong, provide an innovative financing model for Web3, and create a market trend and service competitive advantage to promote the development of the industry and attract upstream and downstream of the industry chain at home and abroad to gather in Hong Kong.
