Upgradable contracts

One of the basic rules of EVM is that once a contract is deployed, it cannot be changed. Instead, an upgradable smart contract uses a special proxy pattern. The latter involves deploying proxy contracts and implementation contracts (logic contracts).

  • User interacts with proxy contract that intiates fallback function that deligates call to contract implementation(V1).
  • Proxy contract has upgrade function to deligate call to new contract implementation(V2).
  • For security purpose, upgrade function should be invoked by only Admin.
  • Admin interacts with proxy admin contract which interm calls upgrade function of the proxy

Note:

  • upgradable contract implementation have no constructor.

# 2 transactions (deploy V2, ProxyAdmin.upgrade)
env $(cat .env) npx hardhat run --network ropsten scripts/upgrade_box_v2.js
