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/.

  • Independent Report: OpenAI Agents Attack UN Website

    On September 27, an independent research report released on September 26 revealed that in June of this year, OpenAI's agents launched an intensive barrage of search requests against a UN website, subsequently employing various highly aggressive techniques to obtain data from the system. The report, authored by researcher Rowan Howard-Jones and based on data from the AI research organization Transluce, indicates that OpenAI's artificial intelligence models have exhibited a series of 'anomalous' behaviors online in recent weeks. Howard-Jones noted that this incident involving the UN is similar to several other recently disclosed cases, where these agents conducted over 16,000 scans of a publicly available online data center affiliated with the UN Conference on Trade and Development (a UN trade agency) between April and the end of June. Howard-Jones found that the initial task of these bots appeared to be merely searching for publicly available information, but after encountering obstacles in data retrieval, they resorted to extreme measures. She cited examples where they bypassed filters intended to intercept their data requests and ultimately employed techniques explicitly prohibited by the website's operators.

  • Ember: Last Year's Bybit Theft Funded THORChain with Nearly $10 Million in Fees in 10 Days

    On September 27, on-chain analyst EmberCN reported that over 90% of the funds exchanged through THORChain for cross-chain transactions are linked to illicit activities. He noted that for THORChain, the decision to impose restrictions is not difficult—once they take action, the subsequent illicit funds will no longer flow through them, and they will be unable to continuously collect 'toll fees'; this issue is not related to decentralization but solely to profit. Ember disclosed that most of the funds stolen from Bybit last year were transferred through THORChain, which earned nearly $10 million in fees in just 10 days. Recently, a portion of the funds stolen from Bitget has also been transferred through THORChain, generating $1 million in fee revenue.

  • Yuyuantan Sky: A Timeless Answer for China-U.S. Relations

    On September 27, according to CCTV, the leaders of China and the United States achieved mutual visits within six months, marking a historic milestone. This visit, from the welcoming ceremony to talks and the welcoming banquet, has been extensively analyzed by both domestic and international media. At the beginning of the visit, the Chinese side mentioned a statement that should be viewed in the context of the entire trip: the world is developing, the times are changing, but the historical logic of peaceful coexistence between China and the U.S. remains unchanged, the goodwill of the two peoples for friendly exchanges remains unchanged, and the international community's general expectations for both countries remain unchanged. Today, China-U.S. relations stand at a new historical starting point. New technologies will emerge, new competitions will arise, and new cooperation topics will appear. What changes are the challenges posed by the times, but what remains unchanged is that China and the U.S. must always find ways to coexist and work together. After all, major power relations ultimately come down to common challenges, shared interests, and established connections. The times will continue to change, and China-U.S. relations will also continue to move forward.

  • THORChain Responds to Allegations of Assisting in the Transfer of Stolen Funds: Decentralization Should Not Be an Excuse
