Snap the scams out!

May 4th, 2023
In the crypto world, attacks, hacks, and scams are unfortunately all too common. Phishing links can be found everywhere - on Twitter, in seemingly harmless blog posts, and in personal emails. We’ve not been immune to them either! As a popular tool for decentralized decision-making, Snapshot.org is an attractive target for scammers looking to manipulate governance proposals for their own gain.

Snapshot is an off-chain voting platform that allows DAOs, DeFi protocols, or NFT communities to vote easily and without gas fees. Today, communities use a variety of tokens or NFTs to represent voting power: the number of votes a certain address has in a DAO.

Update for integrators #1

August 31st, 2022
Snapshot hub currently accepts signed messages (like votes or proposals) in 2 different formats: ”Personal sign” EIP-191 and ”Typed data” EIP-712. On 10 October we will remove support for Personal sign format. Personal sign is the format that was initially used on Snapshot. If you've done an integration within the past six months, you're most likely already using the Typed data EIP-712 client.

Introducing Checkpoint: a library for indexing StarkNet data

June 14th, 2022
Earlier this year we announced Snapshot X, our upcoming on-chain voting framework launching on StarkNet. While building out Snapshot X, we realized that an app on StarkNet would benefit from a richer API layer than querying for data directly from the blockchain. The go-to solution to this on mainnet would have been to use The Graph to index on-chain data. At this time however, The Graph doesn’t support StarkNet so. We set out to build a solution ourselves, Checkpoint.
