What is ChainPatrol?
A Security Platform for the next generation of Web3 Companies
We help protect communities from malicious threats with Off-Chain Monitoring. ChainPatrol sends your scam reports directly to crypto wallets to stop fraudulent transactions as they happen.
PROBLEM: Web3 can’t keep up with Hackers - Thousands of New Scams Daily
People are getting scammed in the Web3 community, every day.
We believe this fear is preventing adoption from users who can benefit from decentralization.
Community members are targetted by social scams, and reporting is fragmented across Discords, Twitter, GitHub repos, and internal tools.
Blocklists used by apps to protect users are not being updated fast enough to keep up with hackers.
Scams are rampant in the Bull and Bear Cycles
How ChainPatrol Started
ETH NYC Hackathon and BurnMyWallet
We saw ETHNewYork as the perfect opportunity to launch and test our first ideas.
Born from this, was BurnMyWallet, a way to report a stolen Seed Phrase on-chain using a soul-bound token.
When your Seed Phrase is stolen, even though your funds are gone your wallet still has a lot of value. Your wallet could be part of a multi-sig, or it has incoming payroll, or locked-up tokens. By burning your wallet you signal to all on-chain and off-chain connections that this wallet is compromised and should no longer be used. We built a sample integration with XMTP chat app to have incoming messages flagged when they come from a hacked wallet.
Only people who have access to the seed phrase can burn their own wallets. The wallet being burned is then verifiable by contracts on-chain and by off-chain apps.

Nikita and Erin (Coinbase) pitching live at ETH Global Hackathon, New York, 2022.
We won 🥳🎉🪅
1 of 9 recognized winners in a participant pool of 300 teams. This recognition generated interest from builders and investors that attended the event, motivating the start of a pre-seed fundraise.
Starting the Fundraise, ETHCC Paris, DevCon VI
With the momentum of winning ETH NYC, it became evident that there was both a clear problem and an appetite for solutions. ChainPatrol set sail to ETHCC in Paris, France to meet interested investors, community leaders, and angel investors keen to learn more about Nikita’s vision for security in Web3.
Many of these people were instrumental in ChainPatrol.io kicking off at the Ethereum Foundation’s DevCon VI, hosted in Colombia Bogota.
DevCon VI Highlights
With our presence at DevCon, the ChainPatrol team formed new insights, connections, and a preliminary pipeline of potential clients to provide enhanced off-chain security.
We met a lot of amazing innovators and builders at DevCon. This is one of our favorite memories after @TayVano’s (Metamask) Security Session at the Mountain Top at The Agora Convention Centre.
BETA - We’re Live!
In less than 60 days, ChainPatrol is already in action with a live BETA program serving a range of L1's, L2's, and DeFi.
The Team has received early testimonials of support from DeFi platforms: Cow Swap, ZetaChain and Morpho, highlighting the ease of reporting and blocking malicious threats.
If you’re a Web3 project looking to strengthen your security and community protection, connect with us at ChainPatrol.io
We are also excited to announce our first set of Wallet Partnerships in 2023. Stay tuned!

We’ll share more about automating attack detection, and new security mechanisms for web3.
