Many of the Defi protocols rely on accurate pricing of user collateral. The most common approach is to use spot prices for all assets included in the collateral to estimate their market value. However, the spot price is only an approximation of the actual market price of all assets, as the liquidation process often involves additional slippage and fees.
Redstone proposes a novel approach with multi-dimensional pricing that provides a two-dimensional curve indicating a price depending on the quantity of assets to be liquidated. The curve is generated in real time based on the liquidity available in the current market and any additional costs due to swap fees. This allows protocols to better price collateral, reduce risk margin and improve capital utilisation.
During the presentation, I will describe the methodology used to create the multidimensional price. I will also use code examples to show how the data is formatted and how it can be used efficiently in smart contracts.

Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) is a method which puts user needs and team conversations at the heart of the software dev process. While BDD helps web2 teams write more valuable, secure code, it has not become popular for smart contract development yet. We aim to change that by sharing our experience successfully using BDD to write more secure DeFi smart contracts.
In this talk, Pete Laird (or Bufficorn Ventures and my teammate on ETH Denver 2022 finalist team LOUDVERSE) and I will walk participants through writing more secure and usable Solidity smart contracts using BDD. We first explain the what and why of BDD, then we describe how BDD works, and finally we code an ERC4626 vault using BDD together.
Workshop Outline
- BDD — The What and Why
- Modern DeFi development and the challenges of one-way, immutable deploys
- How BDD helps deliver more valuable, secure, usable software
- Test-Driven Development, and beyond, with Foundry/Forge/Ethers-RS/Ethers-JS
- The Mechanics of BDD
- Cucumber as your protocol's executable specification
- Features, Scenarios, and Step Definitions
- Web3 specifics — forking mainnet, contract objects, test doubles
- A Real-Life Example
- Writing an ERC4626 from scratch using BDD
- How to try out BDD on your next contract
- Where to from here, Q&A
