Mission-critical transaction screening infrastructure ensuring compliance and security across 3+ million transactions daily

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

As institutions move onchain, counterparty and transaction screening are essential to their security and compliance.

Forta Firewall delivers that, powered by the FORT token.

Onchain activity doesn't stop at night. Neither does Forta Firewall.

24/7 sequencer-level real-time transaction screening.

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

SEC just approved Paxos to clear U.S. stocks on blockchain. First ever.

Institutions are going onchain fast. Real-time risk management is how they do it securely.

Two exploits flagged today 🚨

$99K drained from #ONTR on Ethereum via an uninitialized owner vulnerability, and $85.5K from #Legendary MON NFT on BSC.

Forta Firewall caught both in real time 👇

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

$212K drained from #SKP on BSC 🚨

Forta Firewall flagged the transaction in real time.

Firewall gives chains the visibility to act in time.

👇

@Hyperbridge lost $237K.

A forged message through the gateway contract let the attacker overwrite the admin of a Polkadot token contract.

Bridge message validation strikes again, same class of vulnerability as some of 2022's worst incidents.

$320M+ drained in April alone. The worst month in crypto history 🚒

Forta integrates directly into the transaction flow to screen, flag and block threats before they execute.

Chains running Firewall don't find out too late.

The $280M Kelp exploit wasn't the only one 🧵

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

@SquidMulticall lost $517K.

An attacker exploited pre-existing MAX_UINT approvals to the SquidMulticall contract, draining victims across chains.

Stale approvals are a silent attack surface.

OFAC sanctioned new Ethereum addresses linked to Sinaloa Cartel fentanyl traffickers 🚨

Forta Firewall is already monitoring them. Any transaction touching these wallets gets flagged before it executes.

Onchain compliance in real time ✅

👇

@jpmorgan now has two live tokenized funds on @ethereumfndn.

Institutions aren't exploring onchain anymore, they're building for it.

The bigger the book, the more real-time risk management matters.

$455K drained from @Aurellion_Labs via an unprotected initializer exploit 🚨

Attacker exploited an unprotected initializer to seize Diamond ownership and drain approved USDC.

Forta Firewall caught it in real time. Chains running Firewall don't find out too late.

👇

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

$5.87M gone from @EkuboProtocol 🚨

An attacker registered as an allowed signer and drained the Market Maker's approved assets in a single transaction.

Forta Firewall was watching. Chains running Firewall don't find out after the fact.

April's hack season raised the bar for everyone in DeFi.

Institutions aren't backing down and they won't compromise on it.

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

$600M drained across 33 incidents in a single month. April 2026 just set a record no one wanted.

But costly lessons move industries forward, and higher security standards and serious risk management infrastructure are becoming the new baseline.

👇

[DefiLlama.com @DefiLlama]

April ends as the most-hacked month in crypto history, by number of incidents.

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

$4.5M and counting 🚨

@wasabi_protocol hit via a compromised admin key. The attacker drained 7 vaults across @base and @ethereum using a fake strategy contract.

Forta Firewall flagged the suspicious ADMIN_ROLE grant. Chains on Firewall don't have to find out too late.

👇

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

$2.8M lost across 8 attacks in the last 24 hours 🚨

The space deserves better infrastructure.

Forta Firewall detects threats as they happen, not after the damage is done.

👇

[Forta 🏰 @FortaNetwork]

~$229k lost in a $JUDAO LP drain attack on BSC 🚨

The attacker manipulated a flawed token transfer function to skew LP reserves, turning a $2.3M flash loan into a $227k profit

Firewall flagged it as it unfolded. Stay protected.

Institutional participation in DeFi will materialize when risk management infrastructure meets the control and compliance standards institutions operate by.

[Paul Frambot 🦋 @PaulFrambot]

Spent the last week calling the largest institutions to get their read on the DeFi situation.

Key takeaways:
1- Institutional interest isn't going away, for a simple reason: distributors aren't going away. Massive AUM, payments, and loans are coming onchain. Every fintech wants to move fully onchain. As an institution, you don't have a choice.

2- That said, they've completely lost trust in pool/hub models. Institutions and distributors want control: over the code, over the risk, over the compliance. With the flexibility to isolate what they want, while plugging into the global network of liquidity that's compatible with them.

The promise of an open financial system is too big to fail: not because of ideology, but because it's going to create an immense amount of value for everybody involved.
