_New suite enables organizations to screen inflows, enforce transaction policies,
and continuously monitor onchain exposure as illicit activity accelerates across
digital assets_

NEW YORK, May 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Blockaid, the blockchain security company 
protecting more than $500 billion in digital assets and screening over 500 million
blockchain transactions each month, today announced [Risk Exposure](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4687945-1&h=3741409042&u=https%3A%2F%2Fblockaid.io%2Fcompliance&a=Risk+Exposure),
a new real-time compliance infrastructure suite designed to help exchanges, custodians,
banks, asset managers, and DeFi protocols monitor and enforce risk policies before
illicit exposure spreads through onchain systems.

The launch marks a major expansion of Blockaid’s security platform beyond DeFi-native
exploit, scam and fraud prevention into what the company describes as programmable,
real-time compliance infrastructure for institutional onchain finance.

Blockaid’s infrastructure is already used by leading digital asset platforms, including
Coinbase, MetaMask, Uniswap, Fireblocks, Polymarket, and OKX. The company screens
more than 500 million blockchain transactions every month, evaluates hundreds of
transactions per second, and delivers compliance verdicts in under 300 milliseconds
with at least 99.99% accuracy. Its systems continuously monitor onchain activity
and protocol exposure, with DeFi toxicity sampling refreshed in real-time.

The launch comes as financial institutions and payment processors move from isolated
crypto experimentation into continuous onchain operations, where exposure evolves
rapidly across DeFi ecosystems even when firms are not actively transacting. Asset
managers and market makers now maintain persistent DeFi exposure through liquidity
pools and perps, while payment processors, custodians, banks and multinational companies
continue expanding stablecoin settlement and treasury operations across multiple
blockchain networks. The shift places growing pressure on compliance systems, which
are struggling to keep pace with the speed and complexity of modern onchain activity.

In the last 18 months alone:

 ◦ North Korean-linked attackers moved more than $1.5 billion through the Bybit 
   hack
 ◦ Cetus suffered a $223 million exploit
 ◦ Balancer exposure surpassed $116 million following a smart contract vulnerability
 ◦ KelpDAO lost $292 million following a LayerZero DVN compromise

In many cases, exploit exposure propagated across wallets, liquidity pools, bridges,
and counterparties before traditional compliance systems noticed.

At the same time, AI-enabled social engineering has accelerated cryptocurrency investment
fraud — also known as pig butchering — to tens of billions of dollars, annually.
According to the FBI’s Operation Level Up initiative, roughly 8 in 10 victims are
unaware they’re being scammed and do not file a report. This allows scammers to 
launder funds without detection by compliance tools that rely on law enforcement
records to tag addresses.

"Most blockchain compliance systems were built for forensic investigation, not real-
time intervention," said** Ido Ben-Natan, Co-Founder and CEO of Blockaid**. "That
model breaks down when stolen funds can move through bridges, mixers, liquidity 
pools, and counterparties within minutes. Institutions operating onchain need compliance
systems capable of enforcing policy before exposure enters the system, not after
funds have already moved."

Risk Exposure is designed around a different assumption than traditional blockchain
compliance tooling: that onchain risk is continuous rather than transactional.

A liquidity pool, protocol, or counterparty that appears compliant in the morning
can become exposed to stolen funds, sanctioned entities, phishing infrastructure,
scams, or laundering activity hours later, even if an institution has not initiated
a transaction itself.

To address this, Blockaid’s Risk Exposure introduces three core capabilities:

 ◦ **Risk Screening APIOrganizations can screen transaction flows in real-time before
   accepting funds. The system returns structured verdicts that firms can automatically
   act on. Responses include exposure categories, USD exposure amounts, and risk
   severity levels designed for internal reviews, audits, SAR filings, and regulator
   conversations.
 ◦ **Cosigner Policy EngineOrganizations can define compliance exposure thresholds
   directly within multisig approval workflows. Rather than relying solely on static
   counterparty blocklists or allowlists, Cosigner evaluates exposure across every
   receiving address in a transaction. If exposure breaches predefined AML or compliance
   thresholds, transactions can be rejected automatically, even after multisig approvals
   have been granted.
 ◦ **DeFi Toxicity MonitorsProtocols, liquidity pools, counterparties, and treasury
   positions are monitored continuously throughout the day as exposure changes over
   time. Organizations receive alerts when exposure thresholds tied to stolen funds,
   sanctioned entities, fraud, scams, mixers, or other high-risk activity are breached.

Unlike systems that rely primarily on retrospective address tagging, Blockaid combines
transaction simulation, exploit detection, scam intelligence, phishing detection,
behavioral analysis, and AI-driven threat identification to surface malicious exposure
earlier in the attack.

Risk Exposure is available immediately for exchanges, custodians, DeFi protocols,
bridges, asset managers, OTC desks, market makers, payment companies, and financial
institutions operating onchain**.**
