When a compliance screening provider goes down, every exchange, custodian, and payments firm on that single API is left to pause flows or let transactions through unscreened.
No single provider has perfect uptime, and that one API call is the gate every deposit, withdrawal, and counterparty check passes through.
Blockaid’s Risk Exposure gives compliance teams an independent screening layer that runs alongside what they already run, with verdicts in real time.

@KaiaChain is secured by Blockaid, from its contracts, wallets, and bridges to every transaction before it is signed.
A KRW stablecoin rail on Kaia would run on that same real-time protection, and we’re excited to support the network.
Fast internet, huge exchanges, millions trading every day.
And the won still can't travel.
When a currency can't move, people switch to one that can. The dollar already runs on stablecoins.
Korea needs its own rail before that habit sets.

Congratulations to @cosmos and @interchain_io on contributing IBC to @lfdecentralized.
Cross-chain movement has been one of the biggest sources of losses in digital assets. It needs standards the whole industry can build on, and Blockaid is proud to be a supporter.
🚨Blockaid detected an ongoing exploit on @ankr on Ethereum.
An attacker submitted five withdraw calls on Ankr’s Ethereum cross-chain bridge, using a tiny Optimism deposit to unlock the bridge’s full locked inventory to a new wallet.
~$292k drained from the bridge so far across ~5 txs. Attack still ongoing. 🧵
@ankr Hours before those withdraws, the attacker swept multiple Ankr operator wallets on Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Linea into one new wallet, then funded the relayer from it.
Native sweeps ~02:08–04:06 UTC.

They compromised the engineers. Then they reached the signing service.
Binance reported $6.3B in affected assets. With 95 security incidents tracked by CertiK in October alone, signing controls deserve scrutiny.
Join Fireblocks + @blockaid_ for a breakdown.

What is transaction simulation?
We just added it to Trezor Suite for swaps on Ethereum and EVM chains: before you sign, Trezor Suite previews your swap with @blockaid_ and shows what you can expect to receive.
You get to see the outcome of a trade before you commit to it. If it’s not quite what you had in mind, you can tweak the amount, the route, or the pair and take another look.
