Audits
dreamDEX prioritizes the security of user funds above all else. Our security strategy includes rigorous internal testing, comprehensive external audits, and an ongoing bug bounty program.
Built on Somnia
dreamDEX is built on the Somnia blockchain, a high-performance Layer 1 designed for real-time applications. By building on Somnia, dreamDEX inherits the robust security practices and infrastructure of the Somnia network.
Inherited Security Practices
Somnia follows industry-leading security standards, including:
- Smart Contract Security: Comprehensive guidelines for secure smart contract development
- Audit Processes: Rigorous audit checklists and verification procedures
- Infrastructure Security: Battle-tested node and infrastructure security protocols
- Responsible Disclosure: Clear policies for reporting vulnerabilities
For more information on Somnia's security practices, see the Somnia Security Documentation.

USDso Swap Contract — Sherlock
USDso, the stablecoin used as the quote token across dreamDEX spot markets, is backed 1:1 by FraxUSD via LayerZero. The USDso swap contract is being audited by Sherlock as a separate engagement. See the Roadmap for context on how USDso fits into v1.0.
Future Audits
Additional audits will be commissioned ahead of any major protocol upgrade. Audit firms and scopes will be listed here once engagements are finalized.
