Q: Why do audited protocols still get hacked? A: Audits are snapshots. They miss logic flaws in live code & admin key risks. Example: $600M Poly Network hack exploited an un-audited cross-chain function. Q: Is 'decentralized' really safer? A: Not if you rely on a single oracle. The $116M Cream Finance hack happened because of a price oracle manipulation, not a smart contract bug. Q: What's the best security practice? A: Time-locks over audits. A 48-hour timelock on upgrades lets the community react. No timelock = instant drain risk. Always check governance parameters.
