Crypto and Decentralized Finance Under Stress: A Comprehensive Risk Assessment of Vulnerabilities and Attack Techniques
暫譯: 壓力下的加密貨幣與去中心化金融：脆弱性與攻擊技術的全面風險評估

本書概述了加密貨幣市場和去中心化金融（Decentralized Finance）中的主要財務和操作風險。它闡述了穩定幣（stablecoins）、加密投資產品和多功能生態系統的角色，並突顯與儲備、槓桿和協議相互依賴性相關的脆弱性。本書區分了傳統風險與根植於智能合約邏輯、預言機操控、治理失敗和跨鏈橋的風險。實證部分分析了攻擊頻率、被盜金額和不斷演變的利用技術，顯示出使用閃電貸款（flash loans）和預言機扭曲的複雜計劃的趨勢。本書還檢視了混合器（mixers）並介紹了 Ronin 案例。最後幾章討論了減輕風險的技術和治理措施，並提供了監管建議。
