The New York and Tel Aviv-based company said it would use the funding to scale its product, customer base and team to address the industry’s security challenges, which it described as “never-ending” in an emailed announcement on Monday.
Blockaid offers a security layer that can scan every transaction from a wallet or interact with a decentralized app (dApp) or a smart contract and is compatible with any blockchain network. The firm claims to have scanned 450 million transactions, thwarted 1.2 million malicious transactions and safeguarded $500 million in user funds that would have been otherwise compromised in the last three months alone.
Nearly $700 million was lost across 184 incidents in Q3 of 2023, more than the entire first half of the year ($633 million), according to blockchain security firm Certik, highlighting the scale of the challenge in tightening security for Web3 projects and applications.

Stablecoin Adoption Is ‘Exploding' — Here's Why Wall Street Is Going All-In
Alchemy co-founder and president Joe Lau said stablecoin adoption is exploding as banks, fintechs and payment platforms push beyond the USDT/USDC exchange era.
Ce qu'il:
- Stablecoin usage is quickly broadening from crypto-native exchanges into payments, payroll and treasury as companies chase 24/7, digital-native settlement, according to Alchemy Co-founder and President Joe Lau.
- Banks are pushing tokenized deposits as a regulated, bank-native alternative that delivers stablecoin-like benefits for institutional clients.
- The endgame is a two-track system — stablecoins for open, two-party settlement; deposit tokens for bank ecosystems, until scale forces convergence and competition, Lau said.
