Cartesi Launches Upgraded Version of Honeypot dApp with Fraud

An upgraded version of Cartesi’s Honeypot decentralized application (dApp) has been launched, which raises the bar for rollup security standards. Cartesi is a modular blockchain system that first pioneered application-specific rollups. Cartesi is one of 26 projects that have managed to maintain their Ethereum L2 status in accordance with the new standards established by L2Beat.

Honeypot, which is now equipped with Cartesi’s Permissionless Refereed Tournaments (PRT) fraud-proof system, illustrates the project’s dedication to security, transparency, and open development. Additionally, it prepares the project for “Stage 2” designation in L2BEAT’s recategorization, which is a stage that has yet to be granted.

Honeypot is a hacking challenge that was first introduced on the Ethereum mainnet two years ago. It is defined as a “hacking challenge based on the concept of honeypots.” Honeypot changes rollup security testing by means of a community-incentivized audit and interdisciplinary hacker battlefield. PRT, a fraud-proof mechanism that provides resistance to Sybil attacks without relying on permissioned validators or hefty hardware, has been added to this most recent version, which serves to strengthen it.

According to L2BEAT, which is a major open-source analytics platform for Layer-2 solutions, projects are evaluated based on proof systems that check rollup data for the purpose of ensuring safe Ethereum settlement. It is currently changing the classification of L2 projects depending on how far along they are in the process of becoming fully operational fraud-proof systems. This organization is widely regarded as a significant industry standard for rollup decentralization and security.

Honeypot is expected to be immediately recategorized as Stage 2, which is the ultimate step in which rollups become entirely governed by smart contracts. This is because Honeypot’s system is completely permissionless and fraud-proof, and it does not depend on a gated multisig for any interventions.

Erick de Moura, Founder at Cartesi stated:

“We don’t expect trust to be given — it should be earned. Honeypots allow projects to commit their own funds to validate the integrity of their fault proofs before asking others to rely on them. It’s a gradual, transparent path toward trustless security that reflects the values this ecosystem was built on.”

Cartesi’s new Honeypot upgrade is a crucial and essential milestone, indicating the maturity of its rollup technology as it enters Stage 2. This is in light of the fact that Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin has emphasized the need for all Layer-2s to implement measures that prevent fraud. With an eye toward the future, the group is working on the next-generation ‘Dave’ fraud-proof system in order to further increase security.

The conventional software stack and blockchain are separated by Cartesi, which acts as a bridge between the two. The infrastructure of the internet was built over the course of forty years, requiring billions of hours of labor and trillions of dollars. Through the use of Cartesi, developers are able to obtain access to the operating systems, programming languages, software libraries, and tools that have been methodically honed over the course of many decades. This paves the way for the next generation of blockchain applications.
