Could you build this?
Partial Building the alert UI and Telegram bot is simple, but reliably indexing 6 EVM chains in real time to detect bytecode storage slot changes and proxy implementations requires robust blockchain data pipeline expertise.
What it would actually take: Requires real-time event streaming via dedicated archive/full nodes across multiple EVM chains (using Viem/Ethers with Redis queues and worker pools). The difficult engineering challenge is decoding diverse proxy storage patterns (EIP-1967, Diamond proxies, custom storage layouts) and performing low-level `eth_getStorageAt` slot scans without getting overwhelmed by RPC rate limits or RPC desyncs. Deep smart contract security knowledge is needed to correctly identify subtle administrative privilege handoffs.
