The Move Prover 🌐

The Move Prover supports formal verification of Move code—automatically validating logical properties of the smart contract. 🔐

How to formally verify your smart contracts on Aptos in 2 simple steps:

1️⃣ Define your smart contract specifications
2️⃣ Invoke the Move Prover, which checks whether ANY possible input can break the user-specified behavior

Alex (Co-founder of Econia) explains how Econia v4 was tested to 100% coverage and why it matters👇
