What is the Securing Decentralized Systems in Volatile course about?

Decentralized networks face compounding risks: price instability erodes stakeholder confidence, attack surfaces grow with integration depth, and governance delays create exploit windows. Without proactive threat modeling, even stable protocols face cascading failures. Your firm operates in this high-signal environment where one vulnerability can trigger chain reactions across trust layers.
