Forta Firewall Advances with FP-7 Vote

Takeaways

- Forta Proposal 7 (FP-7) passes with 100% community support (728k FORT votes)
- The proposal enables Forta Foundation funding of Forta Firewall integrations and testnet, promotion of Forta Firewall through official Forta channels, community governance over Forta Firewall, and the full integration of Forta Firewall into the Forta Network.
- Early access to Forta Firewall is now open for DeFi protocols and rollups.

Forta Proposal 7 (FP-7) has passed with 100% community support (728k FORT votes), marking a significant milestone in the development of Forta Firewall, the novel exploit prevention network. This achievement bolsters the Forta community's commitment to on-chain security and its trust in Forta Firewall's ability to prevent exploits and protect smart contracts.

The Community Has Spoken

The passing of FP-7 is a testament to the community's desire for a more secure and decentralized on-chain ecosystem. With this vote, the community has shown its support for a Forta-powered solution that can prevent exploits, rather than just detecting them. Recognizing this shift is a critical step forward for the industry, as it reflects the need for proactive security measures that can protect against the increasing frequency and severity of exploits.

What's Next

The next steps will involve the further development of Forta Firewall, with the goal of launching a ‘Forta chain’ testnet in Q4 of this year. This will be followed by the rollout of the full Forta Firewall solution, which will provide a robust security solution for DeFi protocols and rollups. The full integration of Forta Firewall into the Forta Network is the final piece of the onchain security puzzle. By leveraging the existing Forta Network, machine learning, and a proprietary transaction screening workflow, Forta Firewall will provide a surgical approach to preventing exploits, without relying on pausing protocols or rescuing funds.
