This course addresses the current structure of deployed applications on the blockchain and the structure of communication across protocols and blockchains. It will begin by covering the fundamental building blocks of on‐chain activity: AMMs, borrow/lending protocols, oracles, and bridges. The course will then shift toward analysis of these protocols, including previous hacks/exploits, risk evaluation, and implications for both crypto and financial markets structure
