Abstract

Smart contracts enable developers to quickly develop decentralized applications running on the blockchain, enriching blockchain applications, but at the same time, due to their immutability, smart contracts have frequent vulnerabilities in recent years. These years many smart contract audit tools have emerged; however, we are committed to solving the problem at the root, using RASP technology to design and implement the runtime self-protection framework of smart contracts, and design and implement the four common vulnerabilities in contracts.
