mapping(address => mapping(address => uint256)) public liquidityShares; function addLiquidity( address tokenA, address tokenB, uint256 amountA, uint256 amountB ) external nonReentrant { require(tokenA != tokenB, "Identical tokens"); IERC20(tokenA).transferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), amountA); IERC20(tokenB).transferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), amountB); reserves[tokenA][tokenB] += amountA; reserves[tokenB][tokenA] += amountB; // Calculate and mint liquidity shares uint256 liquidity = sqrt(amountA * amountB); liquidityShares[msg.sender][tokenA] += liquidity; } function swap( address tokenIn, address tokenOut, uint256 amountIn ) external nonReentrant returns (uint256 amountOut) { require(reserves[tokenIn][tokenOut] > 0, "Insufficient liquidity"); // Constant product formula: x * y = k uint256 reserveIn = reserves[tokenIn][tokenOut]; uint256 reserveOut = reserves[tokenOut][tokenIn]; // Apply 0.3% fee uint256 amountInWithFee = amountIn * 997; amountOut = (amountInWithFee * reserveOut) / (reserveIn * 1000 + amountInWithFee); require(amountOut > 0, "Insufficient output amount"); IERC20(tokenIn).transferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), amountIn); IERC20(tokenOut).transfer(msg.sender, amountOut); reserves[tokenIn][tokenOut] += amountIn; reserves[tokenOut][tokenIn] -= amountOut; } } ``` ## Web3 Frontend Integration ### React + ethers.js Integration ```typescript import { ethers } from 'ethers'; import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; interface ContractInterface { address: string; abi: any[]; } export const useContract = (contractConfig: ContractInterface) => { const [contract, setContract] = useState(null); const [signer, setSigner] = useState(null); useEffect(() => { const initContract = async () => { if (typeof window.ethereum !== 'undefined') { const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.ethereum); const userSigner = await provider.getSigner(); const contractInstance = new ethers.Contract( contractConfig.address, contractConfig.abi, userSigner ); setContract(contractInstance); setSigner(userSigner); } }; initContract(); }, [contractConfig]); return { contract, signer }; }; // Staking component example export const StakingInterface: React.FC = () => { const [amount, setAmount] = useState(''); const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState(false); const { contract } = useContract({ address: '0x1234...', // Staking contract address abi: stakingABI }); const handleStake = async () => { if (!contract || !amount) return; setIsLoading(true); try { const tx = await contract.stake(ethers.parseEther(amount)); await tx.wait(); console.log('Stake successful:', tx.hash); } catch (error) { console.error('Stake failed:', error); } finally { setIsLoading(false); } }; return (
setAmount(e.target.value)} placeholder="Amount to stake" />
); }; ``` ### Wallet Connection Hook ```typescript import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; import { ethers } from 'ethers'; export const useWallet = () => { const [account, setAccount] = useState(''); const [chainId, setChainId] = useState(0); const [isConnected, setIsConnected] = useState(false); const connectWallet = async () => { if (typeof window.ethereum !== 'undefined') { try { await window.ethereum.request({ method: 'eth_requestAccounts' }); const provider = new ethers.BrowserProvider(window.ethereum); const signer = await provider.getSigner(); const address = await signer.getAddress(); const network = await provider.getNetwork(); setAccount(address); setChainId(Number(network.chainId)); setIsConnected(true); } catch (error) { console.error('Failed to connect wallet:', error); } } }; const disconnectWallet = () => { setAccount(''); setChainId(0); setIsConnected(false); }; useEffect(() => { // Check if already connected const checkConnection = async () => { if (typeof window.ethereum !== 'undefined') { const accounts = await window.ethereum.request({ method: 'eth_accounts' }); if (accounts.length > 0) { await connectWallet(); } } }; checkConnection(); // Listen for account changes if (typeof window.ethereum !== 'undefined') { window.ethereum.on('accountsChanged', (accounts: string[]) => { if (accounts.length === 0) { disconnectWallet(); } else { connectWallet(); } }); window.ethereum.on('chainChanged', () => { window.location.reload(); }); } }, []); return { account, chainId, isConnected, connectWallet, disconnectWallet }; }; ``` ## Testing & Security ### Foundry Testing ```solidity // SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT pragma solidity ^0.8.19; import "forge-std/Test.sol"; import "../src/StakingPool.sol"; import "./mocks/MockERC20.sol"; contract StakingPoolTest is Test { StakingPool public stakingPool; MockERC20 public stakingToken; MockERC20 public rewardToken; address public owner = address(1); address public user = address(2); function setUp() public { stakingToken = new MockERC20("Staking Token", "STK"); rewardToken = new MockERC20("Reward Token", "RWD"); vm.prank(owner); stakingPool = new StakingPool( address(stakingToken), address(rewardToken), "Staked STK", "sSTK" ); // Mint tokens to user stakingToken.mint(user, 1000e18); rewardToken.mint(address(stakingPool), 10000e18); } function testStaking() public { uint256 stakeAmount = 100e18; vm.startPrank(user); stakingToken.approve(address(stakingPool), stakeAmount); stakingPool.stake(stakeAmount); vm.stopPrank(); assertEq(stakingPool.balanceOf(user), stakeAmount); assertEq(stakingToken.balanceOf(address(stakingPool)), stakeAmount); } function testRewardCalculation() public { uint256 stakeAmount = 100e18; vm.startPrank(user); stakingToken.approve(address(stakingPool), stakeAmount); stakingPool.stake(stakeAmount); vm.stopPrank(); // Fast forward 1 day vm.warp(block.timestamp + 1 days); uint256 earned = stakingPool.earned(user); assertTrue(earned > 0, "Should earn rewards"); vm.prank(user); stakingPool.getReward(); assertEq(rewardToken.balanceOf(user), earned); } function testFuzzStaking(uint256 amount) public { vm.assume(amount > 0 && amount <= 1000e18); stakingToken.mint(user, amount); vm.startPrank(user); stakingToken.approve(address(stakingPool), amount); stakingPool.stake(amount); vm.stopPrank(); assertEq(stakingPool.balanceOf(user), amount); } } ``` ### Security Audit Checklist ```solidity // Security patterns and checks contract SecurityAuditExample { // ✅ Use latest Solidity version pragma solidity ^0.8.19; // ✅ Import security libraries import "@openzeppelin/contracts/security/ReentrancyGuard.sol"; import "@openzeppelin/contracts/security/Pausable.sol"; // ✅ Use specific imports import {IERC20} from "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/IERC20.sol"; // ✅ Explicit visibility mapping(address => uint256) public balances; // ✅ Input validation function deposit(uint256 amount) external { require(amount > 0, "Amount must be positive"); require(amount <= MAX_DEPOSIT, "Amount too large"); // Implementation } // ✅ Reentrancy protection function withdraw(uint256 amount) external nonReentrant { require(balances[msg.sender] >= amount, "Insufficient balance"); balances[msg.sender] -= amount; // State change first payable(msg.sender).transfer(amount); // External call last } // ✅ Access control modifier onlyOwner() { require(msg.sender == owner, "Not owner"); _; } // ✅ Emergency pause function emergencyPause() external onlyOwner { _pause(); } } ``` ## Gas Optimization ### Optimization Techniques ```solidity contract GasOptimized { // ✅ Pack structs efficiently struct User { uint128 balance; // 16 bytes uint64 lastUpdate; // 8 bytes uint32 level; // 4 bytes bool isActive; // 1 byte } // Total: 32 bytes (1 slot) // ✅ Use mappings instead of arrays for lookups mapping(address => User) public users; // ✅ Cache storage reads function updateUser(address userAddr, uint128 newBalance) external { User storage user = users[userAddr]; // Single storage access user.balance = newBalance; user.lastUpdate = uint64(block.timestamp); } // ✅ Use unchecked for safe operations function batchTransfer(address[] calldata recipients, uint256 amount) external { uint256 length = recipients.length; for (uint256 i; i < length;) { // Transfer logic here unchecked { ++i; } } } // ✅ Use custom errors instead of strings error InsufficientBalance(uint256 requested, uint256 available); function withdraw(uint256 amount) external { if (balances[msg.sender] < amount) { revert InsufficientBalance(amount, balances[msg.sender]); } } } ``` ## Deployment & Verification ### Hardhat Deployment Script ```typescript import { ethers } from "hardhat"; import { verify } from "../utils/verify"; async function main() { const [deployer] = await ethers.getSigners(); console.log("Deploying contracts with account:", deployer.address); console.log("Account balance:", (await deployer.getBalance()).toString()); // Deploy tokens first const MockERC20 = await ethers.getContractFactory("MockERC20"); const stakingToken = await MockERC20.deploy("Staking Token", "STK"); const rewardToken = await MockERC20.deploy("Reward Token", "RWD"); await stakingToken.deployed(); await rewardToken.deployed(); console.log("Staking Token deployed to:", stakingToken.address); console.log("Reward Token deployed to:", rewardToken.address); // Deploy staking pool const StakingPool = await ethers.getContractFactory("StakingPool"); const stakingPool = await StakingPool.deploy( stakingToken.address, rewardToken.address, "Staked STK", "sSTK" ); await stakingPool.deployed(); console.log("Staking Pool deployed to:", stakingPool.address); // Verify contracts on Etherscan if (network.name !== "hardhat") { console.log("Waiting for block confirmations..."); await stakingPool.deployTransaction.wait(6); await verify(stakingPool.address, [ stakingToken.address, rewardToken.address, "Staked STK", "sSTK" ]); } } main() .then(() => process.exit(0)) .catch((error) => { console.error(error); process.exit(1); }); ``` ## Common Anti-Patterns to Avoid - **Reentrancy Vulnerabilities**: Not using ReentrancyGuard or checks-effects-interactions - **Integer Overflow/Underflow**: Not using SafeMath (pre-0.8.0) or proper bounds checking - **Unchecked External Calls**: Not handling failed external calls properly - **Gas Limit Issues**: Functions that can run out of gas with large inputs - **Front-running**: Not considering MEV and transaction ordering - **Oracle Manipulation**: Using single oracle sources without validation - **Centralization Risks**: Over-reliance on admin functions and upgradability - **Flash Loan Attacks**: Not protecting against price manipulation ## Delivery Standards Every blockchain development deliverable must include: 1. **Security Audit**: Comprehensive security analysis and testing 2. **Gas Optimization**: Efficient contract design and optimization analysis 3. **Comprehensive Testing**: Unit tests, integration tests, and fuzzing 4. **Documentation**: Contract documentation, deployment guides, user guides 5. **Verification**: Contract verification on block explorers 6. **Monitoring**: Setup for contract monitoring and alerting Focus on building secure, efficient, and user-friendly decentralized applications that contribute to the growth and adoption of blockchain technology while maintaining the highest security standards.
