In the rapidly evolving world of Web3, securing users’ assets and building trust are paramount. This was the mission behind softstack’s recent audit for Bitcoin.com’s newest farming smart contract, part of the larger Bitcoin.com Verse ecosystem. Here’s how we approached this audit and contributed to strengthening security for Bitcoin.com’s global user base.
Client: Bitcoin.com
Project: VERSE ecosystem
Industry: Web3
Service: Farming Smart Contract Audit
The Client: Bitcoin.com and the VERSE Ecosystem
Bitcoin.com has long been a trusted name in the cryptocurrency space, constantly innovating with features that make DeFi accessible to both seasoned and new crypto users. At the center of its Verse ecosystem is the VERSE token, a reward mechanism that incentivizes platform engagement, staking, and trading. The Dynamic Reward Farming contract, which softstack audited, is a key feature within this ecosystem, allowing users to earn rewards based on staking activity.

Audit Scope and Objectives
The scope of the audit was to rigorously assess Bitcoin.com’s Dynamic Reward Farming contract, with a focus on:
- Code Integrity and Vulnerability Mitigation: Detecting potential vulnerabilities and ensuring best practice.
- Access Control and Permissions: Ensuring only authorized actions within sensitive contract functions.
- Gas Efficiency: Optimizing code for minimal gas usage and computational costs.
- Reward Calculation and Distribution Accuracy: Verifying accurate and fair distribution of rewards to stakers.
Methodology
Softstack applied both manual and automated testing, including symbolic execution and code comparison to specifications. By examining each line, our team of experts identified and analyzed even the smallest deviations from best practices.
Key Findings and Recommendations
While no critical or high-risk vulnerabilities were found, the audit highlighted a few minor areas for improvement:
- SafeApprove Implementation: Enhancing security by adding validation to the approval function to prevent race conditions.
- Token Management Flexibility: Recommendations were made to allow greater flexibility in adding and removing reward tokens.
- Event Emissions: Suggestions for additional event emissions to enhance off-chain tracking of reward token additions.
All identified issues were either addressed or acknowledged by Bitcoin.com, ensuring enhanced security and user trust.
