Smart Contracts: Efficiency vs. Security, Where Should Developers Draw the Line?

Blockchain developers often face a trade off between creating highly efficient smart contracts and ensuring their security. Optimizing for gas costs can sometimes lead to compromises in code readability and potential vulnerabilities. On the other hand, prioritizing security often results in more complex, expensive to execute contracts.

How do you approach this balance in your projects? Should developers always prioritize security, or are there scenarios where efficiency should take precedence?

Open table discussion :)
