Forta is a real-time detection network for security monitoring of blockchain activity. The decentralized Forta Network scans all transactions and block-by-block state changes, leveraging machine learning to detect threats and anomalies on wallets, DeFi, NFTs, bridges, governance and other Web3 systems. When issues are detected, Web3 infrastructure can respond to prevent attacks via transaction screening and incident response.
Solidus Labs, the crypto-native market integrity and risk monitoring platform, has launched their Token Sniffer Rug Pull Detector on the Forta Network.
How it works
The Rug Pull Detector is a Forta detection bot that identifies newly deployed scam tokens. The bot is powered by Solidus’ Token Sniffer service and analyzes newly deployed ERC20 tokens by comparing the smart contract source code and bytecode against a database of thousands of known scam patterns. The bot emits alerts and labels that contain information about the token and the type(s) of scam detected.
The Rug Pull Detector supports 13 EVM networks, including Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain and the recently launched Base network.
Target Market
Scam tokens are prevalent, especially on blockchains with lower transaction fees. Solidus Labs’ Rug Pull Detector helps decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and Web3 wallet providers identify scam tokens to either (a) warn their users, or (b) block/hide them from the user experience altogether. It also helps DeFi traders and other crypto market participants steel themselves against rug pull risk.
“There is broad acknowledgement that the industry as a whole needs to do more to identify scams and protect end users. I would encourage any team whose users or UX is negatively affected by scam tokens to use Solidus’ Rug Pull Detector as a data source,” said Andy Beal, Ecosystem Lead at the Forta Foundation.
“As more users seek out DeFi platforms, the need to detect smart contract scams in real-time and shed light on manipulative behavior is vital to accelerate safe adoption and enable crypto’s growth,” said Ayal Karmi, COO at Solidus Labs. ”We’re delighted to deepen our work with Forta and its diverse and proactive community of developers committed to derisking DeFi and Web3.”
Pricing
You can purchase a monthly subscription to Solidus’ Rug Pull Detector on the newly launched Forta App for $899/mo USDC.
The launch of the Solidus Labs’ Rug Pull Detector coincides with the Forta Network turning on fees. Developers like Solidus Labs earn 100% of the subscription revenue generated by their bots.
