Smart Contract Auditor Roadmap | Learn Blockchain Security & Smart Contract Auditing
A structured learning roadmap for becoming a smart contract security auditor, maintained by QuillAudits. Covers everything from Ethereum basics through Solidity, DeFi attack vectors, static analysis tools, and reading real audit reports. Aimed at developers who want to break into Web3 security.
The ordering is sensible — fundamentals before tools before real audits, which is how you actually build the skill. The CTF list is solid: Ethernaut, Damn Vulnerable DeFi, and Paradigm CTF are the right places to build intuition, not just theory. Pointing readers at real audit reports from Code4rena, Sherlock, and Spearbit gives access to the actual artifact they need to produce professionally. The companion PDF and Xmind map make it easy to use as a checklist rather than just skimming links.
The repo is essentially a static link dump — no interactive structure, no progress tracking, no worked examples to verify understanding. Several linked resources will rot; Brownie and Manticore are effectively unmaintained and shouldn't be presented on equal footing with Foundry and Slither. The coverage of formal verification (Certora, Halmos) is completely absent, which matters now that competitive audits and high-value protocols treat it as table stakes. Nothing here distinguishes what a beginner needs in the first 3 months versus what takes 2 years to develop.
