Why this matters:

We can now automatically, formally, and at scale prove that a blockchain protocol’s incentives make cheating irrational - before deployment.
October 20, 2025 at 2:52 PM
CheckMate formally and automatically proves game-theoretic security using SMT solvers. The paper introduces a compositional “divide-and-conquer” algorithm that scales to millions of nodes, interleaving model generation and analysis for efficiency.
October 20, 2025 at 2:52 PM
Game-theoretic security is about making sure that even rational, selfish actors prefer to follow the rules - because deviating costs more than it earns.

It’s the “economics” of security.
October 20, 2025 at 2:52 PM
Protocols need 3 kinds of security:
• Cryptographic: Are your keys/passwords strong?
• Implementational: Are there bugs in the code?
• Game-theoretic: Are the incentives aligned so cheating doesn’t pay off?

That last one is crucial, yet often ignored.

The tools Argot maintains sit at the very core of Ethereum: Solidity, Sourcify, Fe, ethdebug, hevm, and Act.

By funding Argot, you're funding the longevity and security of Ethereum applications and the ecosystem as a whole.

RPC & performance improvements

• Fixed issues and improved stability
• Performance boosts in both concrete and symbolic execution
• Fixed false positives thanks to improved Keccak modelling

Smoother, faster, and more accurate across the board.

Better user-facing output

• Warnings now map back to concrete lines in Solidity source code (if available)
• Counterexample validation info in 'hevm test' mode
• Fixed call data display in counterexamples

Understanding and fixing issues just got simpler.
October 14, 2025 at 9:51 AM
More control for users

• --only-deployed: resolve unknown addresses only if already deployed
• better RPC caching framework via --mock-file FILE.json
• Geth-compatible JSONL traces for hevm exec with --json-trace

More flexibility, easier debugging, better integrations.
