Live demos deploy Solidity contracts to a local test chain via Remix and Web3 (v3.js) with MetaMask and successfully exploit them. The talk shows calldata reveals secrets by reading transaction arguments on-chain, and demonstrates an integer overflow mints 2^256 tokens for <0.5 ETH attack that inflates balances. It explains the exact vulnerable code patterns, how transactions expose inputs, the gas/transaction steps used, and practical remediations (use SafeMath or Solidity >=0.8 and store secrets off‑chain).
