Inferara Protocol Design Analysis
We do not hunt for individual bugs; we identify patterns of systemic risk.
“If you don’t do this design right from the beginning, then every piece of the code you write is a patch. And you start out from day 1 with a mess.” – Leslie Lamport
Is your protocol’s architecture sound? Are your economic incentives exploitable?
We go beyond standard audits to analyze the fundamental design of your system,
de-risking your project before you write a single line of code.
Throughout history castles have been built to protect assets, whether financial or people such as the heirs to a kingdom. Castles are only as secure as their design and supporting infrastructure.
Hiroshima castle was actually built before the surrounding city was established. This was an intentional design choice.
For a moment, consider your protocol as a castle.
As protocols 🏯 and their infrastructure 🏙 become more complex in their interactions, so does the complexity of security.

Our Methodology: The 2-Layer Analysis
Layer 1 (The Foundation): Static code and system analysis
- We use static analysis tools acting similarly to compilers-frontend with rich AST-based models (linking resolutions, type inference, etc.)
- Taint and flow analysis (data and control) is usual for Web2 security tools; we bring it to Web3 tools
- We use the Inference mathematical model that we developed ourselves, and we as the Inference formal specification programming language that enables us to reason about the code using theorem provers effectively
- We are Specializing in WASM
- We use AI to solve traditional static analysis complex problems, such as matching original high-level code with byte code, complex graph analysis, filter false-positives.
Layer 2 (The Insight): Strategic Design Analysis (Architectural, Economic & Game-Theoretic Diagnosis)
- Our team has an academic background. Expertise in game theory, formal logic, algorithms, and programming languages
- We consider protocols as
- A structure with many participants acting within the realm of the protocol
- As a unit that acts as a participant in the global Web3 landscape
- We provide a strategic-level analysis that identifies
- How well a protocol is designed technically (using results from the Layer 1)
- How well a protocol is designed mathematically
- What can happen if protocol participants act in a certain manner, or what if 3rd parties act against or for the protocol
By applying our insights you can ensure your protocol is ready to be visited by people around the world, just like a beautiful castle. Secure but welcoming.

Are Hidden Flaws Putting Your Protocol at Risk?
Catastrophic exploits often stem not from simple coding errors, but from deep, systemic vulnerabilities in a protocol’s design. These design level flaws in economic models, governance structures, or cross-chain interactions are invisible to traditional audits.
Our Solution: Personalized Protocol Analysis
We move beyond code level bug hunting to provide a holistic analysis of your protocol’s conceptual and architectural soundness. Our methodology is built on three pillars to ensure fundamental resilience.
Formal Methods: We use rigorous mathematical techniques to model protocol behavior and prove critical properties, providing mathematical guarantees of system correctness before implementation.
Precise Tooling: We apply specialized in house tools paired with custom AI observations to perform a thorough investigation.
Game Theory: We analyze economic incentives and adversarial strategies to identify and mitigate potential exploits or undesirable outcomes, securing your protocol’s economic layer.
A Clear Path to Confidence
Our process is transparent, collaborative, and designed for clarity.

Our Expert Team
Our deep expertise is what truly differentiates Inferara. We bring together academic researchers and practical Web3 experience to provide unparalleled protocol analysis. The team with such people working together for years is a rare find in the Web3 space.
One of our key team members exemplifies this commitment to excellence and foundational understanding:
PhD in Influence of Additional Information Asymmetry on the Solutions of Non-Antagonistic Games. This specialized research directly informs our game-theoretic analysis of protocol incentives and adversarial behaviors.
MS in Algorithmic Languages. This background provides a profound understanding of the precise definition and analysis of complex computational processes, crucial for formal specification and verification.
MS in Computer Science and mathematical modelling. This equips us with the skills to rigorously model and analyze protocol behavior, ensuring that our findings are grounded in solid theoretical foundations.
Published Researcher with works featured on Mathnet, demonstrating peer-reviewed academic rigor and thought leadership in relevant mathematical and logical domains.
Active Contributor to Web3 Foundational Research on GitHub, bridging academic theory with practical, open-source development in critical areas like new programming language specifications (
inference-language-spec), WebAssembly tooling (inf-wasm-tools), and formal specifications for blockchain components (merkle-tree-wasm-spec).
This unique combination of a strong theoretical foundation in formal methods and game theory, coupled with hands-on contributions to cutting edge Web3 infrastructure, ensures that our analysis is not only academically sound but also directly relevant to real-world protocol challenges and emergent vulnerabilities.
