The growth of the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem built on blockchain
technology and smart contracts has led to an increased demand for secure and
reliable smart contract development. However, attacks targeting smart contracts
are increasing, causing an estimated \$6.45 billion in financial losses.
Researchers have proposed various automated security tools to detect
vulnerabilities, but their real-world impact remains uncertain.
In this paper, we aim to shed light on the effectiveness of automated
security tools in identifying vulnerabilities that can lead …
