Most exploit write-ups leave you guessing about the exact state and call sequence. The
evm-hack-registry is a self-contained, offline-runnable archive of DeFi exploit proof-of-concepts spanning the full history of EVM hacks (2017 to 2026).Each entry forks the pre-exploit state and reproduces the drain in a test, so you can step through the actual call trace, tweak balances, and confirm which invariant broke. Far higher signal than a post-mortem paragraph.
Practical use: before an audit, grep the registry for the class you're reviewing (reentrancy, price-oracle manipulation, unchecked delegatecall) and re-run the closest match against your own contract's assumptions.
