How to Become a Smart Contract Auditor with Patrick Collins
Description
The career of a smart contract auditor is an exciting one albeit a difficult career to build.
Smart contract auditors are very well respected in the web3 space and are paid accordingly as well, however the roadmap to becoming one might not be as clear.
So, we had an hour-long talk with the biggest blockchain development educator, a former lead dev advocate for Chainlink Labs and the Co-Founder of Cyfrin Audits, Patrick Collins about becoming a smart contract auditor.
