Blockaid is attending @money2020.
Adoption of stablecoins, tokenized assets, and agentic payments is accelerating, driven by blockchain-powered financial rails.
This infrastructure needs a new security layer, and that’s what Blockaid is delivering.

Investing during a bull market is like being hit with a flashbang in Call of Duty: loud, disorienting, and for many, a precursor to death.
When the timeline is doing its best to shake your conviction, remember your thesis. Stick to the plan

1/ As consumer agents start to take off with Muse, Instinct, and others to come
We wanted to build a tool that would help researchers understand what’s actually happening under the hood
We were especially motivated by reports of Instinct losing users’ money
Here’s a demo of our Interceptor tool with Muse:

@blockaid_ solves this.
The institutions we work with while not net deploying massive capital to vaults, are easing their way onchain knowing they are safe.
From a Series B founder I spoke with yesterday (whose clients include Fidelity, Blackrock, Franklin Templeton and others):
"Institutions are all excited about vaults, but when you ask them to put money in... whispers."
There is little institutional adoption of vaults. The long tail risk of smart contracts and oracles is something institutions are not willing to risk customer funds on.

Real-time security that keeps pace with the onchain economy.
Institutions are increasingly moving onchain, and security risk continues to grow. AI-accelerated threats have outpaced rules-based legacy monitoring.
Today we're reintroducing Onchain Monitoring. Over the past year, we've significantly expanded what teams operating onchain can do:
- Auto-Discovery builds a live and continually updated inventory of your assets, keeping coverage current
- Dependency Mapping surfaces and tracks the infrastructure you rely on but don't control
- Ecosystem Incidents Feed alerts on live incidents right in the product, so you can act immediately
- Automated response workflows and a 24/7 war room with our threat intel team turn incident detection into action within minutes

Scaling exploit detection with AI.
