Crypto Security Consultation
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’m looking for a seasoned cryptocurrency security specialist and ethical hacker to sit down with me and expose any weak spots in my current setup. The engagement is consultation-driven: I want expert insight, not a formal penetration test—at least not yet.
Scope of the conversation
• Key management: generation, storage, rotation, and recovery workflows
• Algorithm security: randomness sources, encryption/signing choices, implementation pitfalls
• Mnemonic & seed phrase protection: BIP-32/39/44 compliance, secure backup, and user-side hygiene
Primary objective
Identify vulnerabilities across those areas and map out exactly how an attacker might exploit them.
Expected deliverables
1. Written vulnerability report with clear risk ratings and proof-of-concept notes where relevant
2. Action-oriented recommendations and best-practice checklists I can apply immediately
3. One follow-up call or chat to walk through the findings and clarify next steps
You’ll get architecture diagrams, sample code, and any additional context after we execute an NDA. Experience with hardware wallets, HSMs, secure enclaves, and common toolsets (OpenSSL, Metasploit, Burp Suite, custom scripts) is highly valued.
Please share previous work in crypto security, your preferred methodology, and an estimated timeline for the first draft report.
