We are proud to announce that NOWChain is officially partnering with SlowMist, one of the most reputable and battle-tested blockchain security firms in the world. This partnership marks a major milestone in our mission to build a secure, trustworthy, and resilient decentralized ecosystem.
With SlowMist’s robust auditing and threat intelligence services, we’re reinforcing the core foundations of the NOWChain infrastructure—ensuring that every builder, user, and validator can participate with confidence.
🛡 Who is SlowMist?
SlowMist, established in 2018, has earned global recognition for its expertise in securing blockchain platforms and decentralized systems. They’ve worked with top-tier clients like Binance, OKX, PancakeSwap, and Crypto.com, and are known for their deep knowledge of both Layer 1 protocols and Layer 2 solutions.
Their security audit schemes cover every critical layer of a blockchain system, ensuring comprehensive protection from modern and emerging threats.
🔍 What Makes Their Audits Stand Out?
SlowMist provides multiple types of blockchain security audits tailored to various infrastructures:
1. Mainnet Protocol Security Audit
Using a “Black-box + Gray-box” strategy, they simulate real-world attacks to test core components, including:
-
P2P Layer (defense against Sybil, Eclipse, DoS, BGP hijack attacks)
-
RPC Interface (protection from input manipulation, eavesdropping, phishing)
-
Consensus Mechanisms (resistance to 51% attacks, censorship, bribery, race conditions)
-
Encryption (review of cryptographic integrity and private key predictability)
-
Transaction System (audit against replay, malleability, rug pulls, time-locked exploits)

2. Exchange Listing Security Audit
Optimized for speed and cost, this audit checks for:
-
Private key protection
-
Secure encryption libraries
-
Transaction integrity
-
Rug pull prevention
Ideal for chains built from mature infrastructures like Bitcoin-Core or Go-Ethereum.
3. Code-Based Testing Audit
Utilizing a White-box strategy, this method combines:
-
Static Source Code Analysis: Checks codebases in C/C++, Go, Rust, Java, Node.js, C#, and more.
-
Manual Code Review: Audits for overflow errors, poor boundary handling, rollback issues, and state inconsistencies.
4. Customized Audit Plans
SlowMist adapts its methods for ecosystems like Polkadot and Cosmos, with extra scrutiny on:
-
Access control
-
Arithmetic precision
-
Block dependency logic
-
Audit of visibility, macros, and unit test coverage
🔗 What This Means for NOWChain
As a U.S.-based blockchain pioneering Proof of Mobile, NOWChain empowers anyone with a smartphone to become a validator, promoting a decentralized and inclusive future. Security is not optional in that vision—it is essential.
With this partnership, SlowMist will officially join the NOWChain ecosystem as one of our trusted auditing parties, working alongside our technical team and community to:
-
✅ Conduct smart contract and protocol audits
-
✅ Ensure safety for validator operations and mobile node setups
-
✅ Proactively scan for threats using real-world attack simulations
-
✅ Help us uphold the highest standards of security and transparency
🌐 Building a Safer Web3 with Confidence
At NOWChain, we believe decentralization only works if the foundation is secure. Our collaboration with SlowMist proves our commitment to that principle. Together, we’re not just building a blockchain—we’re fortifying an entire movement.
