    What Is a 51% Attack and How Does it Work in Practice?

    A 51% attack is when a person, group, or entity gains control of 51% of a blockchain's hashing power. The method in which this is obtained is different for each consensus mechanism.

    Writing And Deploying Smart Contracts Using Foundry & Thirdweb Deploy

    In this tutorial, we will discuss how using Foundry we can develop a Smart Contract, write tests for it and deploy our Smart Contract to the blockchain using thirdweb deploy. We'll be using a simple Contract that keeps track of a count and allows us to increment, decrement and get the count value. We will also use the Forge Standard library, which allows using Dappsys Test to assert values.
