Chintan Turakhia, Senior Director of Engineering at Coinbase, highlighted the importance of integrating Blockaid in bolstering onchain security for users. This collaborative endeavor spanned beyond Ethereum Mainnet, encompassing more than six other<a href="https://thecoinrise.com/evm-chains-lose-over-55m-to-crypto-scams-in-january/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chains</a>, including Base, Optimism, and Polygon.
Turakhia stated, “Getting security right is critical for bringing one billion people onchain.” According to Blockaid co-founder and CTO Raz Niv, the $75 million in savings is a conservative estimate. Blockaid serves leading clients in the crypto industry, including MetaMask, OpenSea, Zerion Wallet, and Rainbow Wallet.
While exact numbers regarding MetaMask and other clients were not revealed, Niv highlighted that the incorporation of MetaMask has enabled users to collectively save “hundreds of millions of dollars up to now.”&nbsp; <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/revolut-announces-integration-with-metamask-details/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MetaMask,</a> a digital wallet for cryptocurrencies and an entry point to decentralized applications (DApps) has expanded its support to include widely-used tokens such as Ether (ETH), USD Coin (USDC), Tether (USDT), and Shiba Inu (SHIB), among various others.

These APIs prioritize safeguarding users during their browsing of dApps, involvement in transactions with web3 protocols or addresses, and engagement in on-chain communication.
