2 years ago, the DAO was hacked and we learned the importance of security in smart contract development the hard way. We created #OpenZeppelin to fill this gap

As of today, #OpenZeppelin libraries were downloaded 100,000+ times, leveraging a community of 4500+ developers. Still, smart contract development remains a difficult and inefficient endeavor, analogous to the early days of computing

We are now making @zeppelin_os the canonical smart contract development platform — improving the experience of developing, deploying* and managing** decentralized applications
