Forta Updates Token Documentation and Governance

**AI-powered blockchain security gains recognition** as Forta Firewall appears in Messari's latest State of AI report. The inclusion highlights how **artificial intelligence is becoming integral** to onchain security infrastructure. Forta's AI-driven transaction screening technology represents the evolution of blockchain defense mechanisms. - AI-powered attackers require AI-powered defenders - Real-time transaction screening at scale - Growing integration across multiple blockchain networks With **290M+ transactions already screened**, Forta Firewall demonstrates practical AI implementation in blockchain security, moving beyond theoretical applications to active threat detection.

**Yearn Finance suffered a $9M exploit** on mainnet through a sophisticated price manipulation attack. **How the attack worked:** - Attacker drained liquidity pools - Broke pricing mechanisms - Minted cheap yETH tokens - Sold them for regular ETH at inflated prices **Detection vs Prevention:** Forta Firewall **flagged the exploit in real time** but couldn't stop it. The attack happened so fast that only real-time detection was possible. **Key insight:** Pre-execution screening could have **prevented this attack entirely** rather than just detecting it after the damage was done. This follows a pattern of recent price manipulation exploits, including attacks on DRLVaultV3 (~$100K) and RWB (~$180K), highlighting the critical need for **proactive security measures** in DeFi protocols.

**Forta Firewall** has been providing security and compliance screening for Plume Network's RWA chain transactions from launch. The infrastructure processes approximately **2.5 million daily transactions** for institutional-grade real-world asset operations. Key features: - Real-time transaction monitoring - Compliance infrastructure for institutional adoption - Security screening for RWA scaling Plume's vaults include investments from major financial institutions like **Blackstone, Carlyle, BlackRock, Fidelity, and PIMCO**.
