Today I’m starting a new chapter in my life by joining @TheBlock__ family as a Research Analyst. I am very grateful to @lawmaster and all the rest of the team who supported the materials that I published here.
Also from today, I will be using my real name Igor on Twitter.

The announcement that @blockstack has over 1 million users was just ridiculous, so I wondered if I could find anything on their blockchain.
Apparently, the answer should have been news of the integration of Firechat (fc-). The messenger is now dead. https://medium.com/@FrankResearcher/whats-wrong-with-blockstack-s-1-mln-verified-users-cc05950c6f06

Black Thursday for @MakerDAO, a couple of days after the event, seemed to me insufficiently researched, given that it was the largest DeFi protocol and users did not understand why they lost their collateral. https://medium.com/@whiterabbit_hq/black-thursday-for-makerdao-8-32-million-was-liquidated-for-0-dai-36b83cac56b6

Two hacks in a row related to reentrancy in imBTC were my first high point. Back then, there were not yet as many analysts who could quickly understand what was happening. https://twitter.com/FrankResearcher/status/1251771278719098886

In just a couple of days, I finished my research on the state of the treasury wallets of various ICO projects, which was an extended version of what @DiarNewsletter once did. The article has a link to wallets that you can follow. https://medium.com/@FrankResearcher/the-state-of-ethereum-treasuries-8b9bce758011

Of course, strange high-fee transactions over the summer caught my attention. And even though my theory that it was a money laundering bot turned out to be incorrect, PlusToken’s trail is still there. https://medium.com/@FrankResearcher/someone-paid-2-6-million-transaction-fee-twice-plustoken-trail-a1fa0c3cf658

Having decided one day to check the order of transactions in blocks, I noticed that some miners sort transactions in a very strange way. As is now known, it was @Archer_DAO. https://twitter.com/FrankResearcher/status/1311350156219101185

Of course, this is not a complete list, I also published:
- analysis of almost every DeFi hack, if I managed to be the first
- CRV launch
- many more
After joining The Block, there will be even more insights, so be sure to get a subscription if you don’t already have one.
