4 Ways ChainPatrol Helped Build a Better Web3 Future in 2024
2024 was a transformative year for ChainPatrol and the Web3 community as a whole. With every new milestone, we deepened our commitment to creating a safer, smarter, and more resilient Web3 ecosystem.
4 Ways ChainPatrol Helped Build a Better Web3 Future in 2024
From protecting assets to spreading awareness, fostering collaboration, and expanding our impact, here’s how we made a difference this year.
1. Growing Our Team and Partnerships: Scaling Our Impact
2024 was a year of growth for ChainPatrol, both internally and externally. Here are just a few of the ways that we scaled our impact:
- Expanded our team, bringing on passionate individuals who share our vision for a safer Web3.
- Forged new partnerships, amplifying our ability to make an impact across the ecosystem. For example, we teamed up with the Security Alliance (SEAL) to collaborate on the Phish Fry initiative. Together, we’re catching scammers and spreading threat intelligence faster to secure the crypto ecosystem.
- Attended 11 crypto conferences in 6 countries: USA, Canada, Singapore, Dubai, Taiwan, Thailand.
- Protected Web3 brands during pivotal events. For example, we safeguarded the ZkSync airdrop, taking down 12,000+ fake X profiles and blocking 1,500+ scams in just one day. During the US federal elections, we provided critical protection for Polymarket.
As we grow, so does our capacity to protect, educate, and innovate. Every new team member and partner is another step forward in our mission.
2. Educating the Web3 Community: Knowledge is Power
Web3 can feel like the wild west at times, especially for newcomers. That’s why we doubled down on education in 2024. Through our educational blogs, we:
- Explained common crypto scams and how to avoid them.
- Shared actionable tips for staying safe in the decentralized world.
- Taught Web3 brands how to protect their communities.
- Empowered the community with knowledge to navigate Web3 with confidence.
Our goal? Help Web3 brands and users stay ahead of scams and fraudulent activity by being informed. If you’d like to learn some of our insights, get started by reading 8 Essential Ways to Stay Safe in Web3.
Along with publishing our own blogs, we collaborated on blogs with our partners to reach more of the Web3 community.
For example, we teamed up with MetaMask to publish a game-changing article celebrating our partnership. The article resonated far and wide, amplifying the message of security and trust in Web3.
3. Hosting the Web3 Security Breakfast: Fostering Collaboration
This year, we hosted a Web3 Security Breakfast at Devcon 7. Together with our event partners Hypernative, Quantstamp, and Zircuit, we brought together some of the brightest minds in blockchain security. Over coffee and croissants, we:
- Discussed emerging threats and shared strategies to counter them.
- Explored how collaboration across the ecosystem can drive stronger security standards.
- Sparked meaningful conversations that will shape the future of Web3 security.
Building a better Web3 isn’t something any single organization or project can do alone. By fostering dialogue and connection, we’re paving the way for collective progress.
4. Protecting the Community: Strengthening Security at Scale
Security has always been at the heart of what we do at ChainPatrol, and 2024 was no exception. This year, we hit some truly remarkable milestones:
- 250,000 assets reported to help protect users from scams and fraudulent activity.
- 150,000 assets blocked, effectively stopping bad actors in their tracks.
- Maintained a false positive rate of less than 0.2%, ensuring that our protective measures are as accurate as they are robust.
These numbers are more than just metrics; they represent real people, real assets, and real trust. By staying vigilant and proactive, we’re making the Web3 community safer every day.
Looking Ahead: Building the Web3 Future Together
While we’re proud of what we’ve accomplished in 2024, we know the journey doesn’t stop here. The Web3 space is evolving rapidly, and so are the challenges that come with it. But with the support of our community, partners, and team, we’re more ready than ever to tackle whatever comes next.
Here’s to a safer, smarter, and more collaborative Web3 future. Let’s build it together.
