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/.

  • Cross-border money laundering group laundered HK$88 million, 8 people arrested

    The Hong Kong Police Commercial Crime Bureau locked onto a cross-border money laundering group in November 2023. The investigation found that the group recruited mainlanders to open puppet bank accounts in Hong Kong from September 2023 to March 2024. They used various types of fraud, such as telephone scams, nude chat scams, investment scams, and job scams to defraud victims. The victims were instructed by the fraudsters to deposit the stolen money into the puppet accounts controlled by the criminal group. The group would then withdraw the stolen money from the puppet accounts in cash and buy cryptocurrencies on the over-the-counter (OTC) market. They would also open accounts on overseas cryptocurrency platforms with false identities and deposit the cryptocurrencies purchased with the stolen money before transferring them to multiple cryptocurrency wallets to launder the criminal proceeds. The police also pointed out that the group used 72 local puppet bank accounts to launder more than HKD 88 million in criminal proceeds, of which HKD 6.7 million was related to 48 fraud cases. As of yesterday, the police arrested 7 men and 1 woman aged between 26 and 51 for conspiring to launder black money. They claimed to be a lifeguard, photographer, telephone programmer, salesperson, and unemployed. Six of them were core members, and two were puppet account holders.
