Web3 Product Risk Checklist

Mainnet changes risk economics

Once contract logic is live, mistakes become expensive quickly. Risk planning must happen before deployment, not after incident.

Pre-deploy checklist

• Contract invariants documented and tested.
• Privileged actions constrained and monitored.
• Upgrade paths and emergency controls explicit.
• On-chain and off-chain assumptions aligned.

Post-deploy discipline

Monitor critical events, define response triggers, and keep rollback/mitigation paths ready.

Outcome

You reduce exploit surface and improve operational resilience.
