Blockaid Expands Onchain Monitoring Capabilities Amid Rise in Infrastructure-Related Crypto Losses
Blockaid has expanded its onchain monitoring capabilities to address a growing trend of infrastructure-related crypto losses. In the first half of 2026, it found that 74% of stolen cryptocurrency value stemmed from operational and infrastructure compromises rather than traditional smart contract vulnerabilities. The number of incidents also rose sharply compared to all of 2025. The new monitoring suite includes auto-discovery features for onchain assets, dependency mapping tools for third-party protocols, and an ecosystem-wide incident feed that alerts teams to potential threats across the broader network. These capabilities aim to help organizations detect risks before they impact their own systems or users. Blockaid's platform uses real-time machine learning and automated investigation techniques such as bytecode inspection and transaction simulation to identify suspicious activity. It also enables direct response actions, including onchain circuit breakers for known attack patterns.
