Emphasizing the Early Phases of the Software Development Process Before Deploying Smart Contracts by Juan-Carlos Lopez-Pimentel, Carolina del-Valle-Soto, Leonardo J. Valdivia, Raul Monroy

“…The case is analyzed from three different perspectives: 1) Economic, finding that re-deploying smart contracts does not implicate considerable cost; 2) Computational perspective, finding that it generates various implications: smart contract purpose duplication, storage wastage, failure to recognize the original smart contract, cascade dependency repercussion, and migration problems; and 3) Interconnected effect, a simple change, required for upgrading smart contracts, generates broad collateral repercussions in both on-chain (within the blockchain) and off-chain.…”
