Researcher's Work on Formal Verification and Smart Contracts

In this week's episode, we sit down with Martin Lundfall from Dapphub & MakerDAO to discuss formal verification - a topic request that comes directly from the Zero Knowledge audience.

We cover what formal verification is, where it makes sense, where it doesn't, the k-framework, how different this approach is to the "move fast and break things" approach, and much more.

Here are some of articles and videos we mention:

• Is a type a lifebuoy or a lamp?
• https://github.com/dapphub/klab
• https://github.com/kframework/evm-semantics
• https://github.com/kframework/k
• https://jellopaper.org/
• https://dapphub.chat/
