As decentralized applications (dApps) grow in popularity, ensuring the security of smart contracts written in Solidity is more critical than ever. Vulnerabilities in Solidity code can lead to severe consequences, including the loss of funds or exploitation by attackers. Lets look at some common attacks in Solidity and with examples and strategies to mitigate them.1. Reentrancy AttacksA reentrancy attack occurs when a smart contract calls an external contract, and the external contract makes a...

The DAO was a decentralized venture capital fund built on the Ethereum blockchain. It aimed to allow investors to fund projects without traditional intermediaries. Participants could use smart contracts to pool Ether (ETH) and vote on proposals, with profits distributed back to token holders. The DAO raised $150 million worth of ETH in one of the first large-scale Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), representing a significant portion of all ETH in circulation.The VulnerabilityThe DAO smart contrac...
