Security

Security – GearUp

Security is not a feature at GearUp — it’s a foundational principle woven into every product, layer, and interaction.

The GearUp ecosystem prioritizes security across three key verticals: project infrastructure, token structure, and utility-level usage. This page outlines how we think about each, and what measures are in place to protect our users, contributors, and the broader DeFi ecosystem.

🧱 1. Project Infrastructure Security

GearUp’s infrastructure is designed to be:

• Modular and sandboxed: Each component (Studio, Factory, GearFlow) is logically separated to reduce cross-surface risk.

• Auditable and open: Critical logic components will be gradually open-sourced and externally audited.

• Redundancy-backed: Deployment systems rely on verified fallback endpoints and multi-layer hosting to prevent downtime.

• Zero-access policy: No part of the system can access user wallet funds — all interactions are permissioned and user-triggered.

Layer	Security Feature
GearUp Studio	Schema validation, testnet simulation, deploy logs
GearUp Factory	Closed-source support, audit trails, revenue locking
GearFlow Plugin/App	On-chain session revoke, biometric triggers, AI guardrails
Scrappy AI	Schema-based suggestions only (never code-generated logic)

🪙 2. Token & Economic Security

GearUp’s native token ($gUP) is designed with transparency and fairness in mind:

• Liquidity Locked: Core LP pools will be locked and verified on launch.

• Team Vesting: All team and advisory tokens are subjected to time-based vesting and unlock schedules as outlined in the Tokenomics page.
• On-Chain Caps: Transactional limits (max wallet, max TX, anti-whale mechanics) are enforced on-chain where necessary.

• Fee Transparency: Any buy/sell tax logic is shown clearly in every deployable template.

• Non-custodial Control: No contract ever has access to withdraw user LP or wallets without explicit logic blocks.

🧩 3. Utility & User-Level Security

Every utility in the GearUp stack adds a protective layer:

• Studio: Users deploy contracts they build themselves, ensuring no hidden logic. All deploys are verifiable and testable.

• Factory: Developers can protect and license their templates — but all runtime behavior is previewed by buyers before use.

• GearFlow: Mediator contracts prevent direct wallet-dApp connections. Users can create their own rules for access, session timeouts, and approvals.

• Scrappy AI: Warns users in real time about risks in logic, excessive permissions, and unsafe conditions.

• User builds a token in Studio

• Adds LP logic + wallet trigger + auto tax

• Tests in Linea Sepolia testnet

• Scrappy flags one permission as high-risk

• User corrects → deploys to mainnet

• GearFlow later used to control interactions post-launch

🔍 Our Ongoing Commitment

GearUp’s security practices are evolving alongside the ecosystem. We will:

• Publish audit reports for all major releases

• Allow community security disclosures

• Partner with external firms for third-party assessments

• Maintain transparency in all infrastructure and token operations

DeFi moves fast, but safety is not optional. GearUp is committed to building tools that are powerful, programmable, and most importantly — secure.
