SharkTeam Releases “Smart Contract Security Research Report” during Hong Kong Web3 Festival

During the Web3 Festival in Hong Kong, SharkTeam released the “Smart Contract Security Research Report” and had an in-depth discussion with the participants and Web3 users about on-chain security and on-chain data analysis.

According to data from ChainAegis, the SharkTeam on-chain analytics platform, there were 211 security incidents in the Web3 space in the first quarter of 2023, with a daily average of 2.34 incidents and a loss of more than $383 million. Security incidents continue to show a high incidence, with the number increasing by nearly 62.3% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022.

In the first quarter, the number of contract vulnerabilities and Rug Pull incidents did not change much from previous quarters, while other types of security incidents rose 142.18% from the fourth quarter of 2022. The types of security incidents are diverse, with hacking methods becoming more abundant and attack techniques emerging.

Are the smart contract vulnerabilities we often mention really the most threatening and frequent security vulnerabilities in practice? This is not the case, for example, “overflow”, “external call” and other commonly mentioned smart contract security vulnerabilities are not the most frequent and most threatening. So, which security threats can be called Top 10 in terms of frequency of occurrence and harm? What are the typical security attacks that occurred in the first quarter? See this report [smart contract security research report].

The report is divided into three major chapters: Chapter 1 focuses on the top 10 smart contract security vulnerabilities that actually do the most harm; Chapter 2 focuses on typical security attacks in the first quarter of 2023; Chapter 3 collates nearly 200 smart contract security details vulnerabilities to form a smart contract vulnerability library.

  • Global Bond Market Faces Sell-off, Panda Bond Issuance Reaches Record High

    According to CCTV Finance, the long-term government bond yields of major global economies have continued to rise recently, intensifying sell-off pressure in the bond market. However, China's bond market and exchange rate have remained relatively stable, with the issuance of Panda bonds reaching a historical high for the same period. Data shows that as of August 21, the cumulative issuance of 2026 Panda bonds has reached 209.975 billion yuan, an increase of over 73% year-on-year. Against the backdrop of significant fluctuations in the global bond market, the increased interest from international institutions in domestic RMB financing has drawn attention. Industry insiders noted, 'We are in completely different economic and monetary cycles compared to overseas. Foreign capital accounts for only about 5%-8% of our bond market, while domestic capital holds absolute pricing power. Coupled with our monetary policy that prioritizes domestic considerations, overseas shocks cannot reverse the overall trend of the domestic bond market.' Looking ahead, industry experts believe that overseas bond yields are likely to remain highly volatile, highlighting the value of RMB bond allocations, and foreign capital may continue to increase its allocation in the medium to long term. However, it is also important to note that rising U.S. bond yields have raised the return threshold for global allocation funds, which may disrupt the willingness of foreign institutions to increase their holdings of RMB bonds. Additionally, the rapid rise in bond yields in developed countries overseas may also constrain the valuation of domestic risk assets.

  • Global Bond Market Faces Sell-Off, Panda Bond Issuance Reaches Record High

    According to CCTV Finance, recent long-term government bond yields in major global economies have been rising, increasing sell-off pressure in the bond market. In contrast, China's bond market and exchange rate have remained relatively stable, with Panda bond issuance reaching a historical high for the same period. Data shows that as of August 21, the cumulative issuance of 2026 Panda bonds has reached 209.975 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of over 73%. Amidst significant fluctuations in the global bond market, international institutions are increasingly focusing on domestic RMB financing. Industry insiders noted, 'We are in completely different economic and monetary cycles compared to overseas. Foreign capital accounts for only about 5%-8% of our bond market, while domestic capital holds absolute pricing power. Coupled with our monetary policy that prioritizes domestic conditions, overseas shocks cannot reverse the overall trend of the domestic bond market.' Looking ahead, industry experts believe that overseas bond yields are likely to remain highly volatile, highlighting the value of RMB bond allocation, which may attract continued foreign investment in the medium to long term. However, it is also important to note that rising U.S. bond yields have raised the return threshold for global allocation funds, which may disturb the willingness of foreign institutions to increase their holdings of RMB bonds. Additionally, the rapid rise in yields of bonds from developed countries overseas may also constrain the valuation of domestic risk assets.
