Have you or a friend ever fallen victim to a phishing attack, mistakenly authorized a high-risk contract, or come into contact with a blacklisted address unknowingly?

For most of us ordinary users, every address on the chain is essentially "naked" without security protection. Risks such as network phishing and contract traps are everywhere, and with one wrong move, you could easily become a hacker's free "ATM." However,

The on-chain security network GoPlus has launched a new browser security plugin, starting with the protection of every transaction, helping users eliminate various on-chain risks and create their own "On-Chain Security Center."

How does the GoPlus plugin protect every transaction?

As a Web3 user, we may have become accustomed to the anxious moments of clicking on unfamiliar links and authorizing unknown signatures. Whether you are a seasoned user or a newcomer, identifying and avoiding on-chain risks is always a daunting yet inevitable challenge.

This is also why the GoPlus plugin is worth a try—compared to other security plugin products currently available on the market, it is not just a tool but more like a dedicated on-chain security assistant. It can add a comprehensive risk protection barrier to every transaction and operation.

It integrates five core functions: wallet security check, proactive popup warnings, custom transaction environment detection, AI Bot, and security to-dos. It can dynamically monitor on-chain risks, accurately identify threats, and help users avoid phishing attacks, blacklisted addresses, high-risk transactions, and other Web3 security threats.

The GoPlus plugin currently supports mainstream browsers such as Chrome and EDGE (click here to download) and covers seven public chain networks: Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and Solana.

1. Wallet Security Check

Have you ever worried about the presence of toxic tokens/NFT assets or risky authorizations lingering in your wallet during on-chain operations?

If you are unsure about potential security risks in your wallet, you can regularly conduct a self-check using GoPlus' "Wallet Security Check" service—it allows us to connect our wallet and automatically inspect the assets and recent transaction activities to detect potential asset, interaction, and transaction risks, keeping us informed of the wallet's security status in real-time:

Asset Risk: Automatically detect whether you hold risky tokens/NFTs, whether you have received malicious transfers from unknown addresses, and which holdings have experienced significant price drops in a short period;

Interaction Risk: Check for transactions during abnormal time periods not initiated by the owner, verify if there have been transactions with blacklisted addresses, identify recent large-scale fund outflows, ensure recent transaction gas fees are within normal ranges, assess if the wallet has high-risk authorizations, determine if any NFTs have been stolen from the wallet, and confirm if there have been interactions with fraudulent phishing contracts recently;

Potential Risk: Check if wallet addresses have been exposed on social media platforms like Twitter, verify if stablecoin holdings have deviated significantly from their fiat peg, etc.;

2. Active Popup Alerts

Each time we initiate a transaction on-chain, the GoPlus Security Plugin performs real-time monitoring, scanning transactional or website access behaviors in the Web3 environment, and proactively identifies high-risk transactions and websites.

Upon detecting potential risks, the GoPlus Security Plugin will automatically trigger a popup alert with a brief description of the risk type, reminding users to take timely action to mitigate risks.

Currently, after actively assessing the security status of each transaction or operation, the service categorizes them into three risk levels:

Low Risk (Green): No significant threats; users can safely proceed with operations;

Medium Risk (Yellow): Potential abnormal behavior or no historical interaction records, prompting users to proceed with caution;

High Risk (Red): Clear signs of malicious behavior, such as interacting with phishing addresses or engaging in high-risk smart contract operations, strongly advising users to halt operations;

Furthermore, the popup not only displays the risk level but also includes risk details such as address transaction history, blacklist associations, abnormal behavior records, etc., helping us quickly identify the source of potential threats.

3. Customized Transaction Environment Checks

Additionally, each user can tailor security protection strategies to their individual needs, including signature checks, transaction verifications, phishing website detections, Twitter phishing alerts, and more, providing a personalized security protection experience.

For example, with "Phishing Website Detection," when the plugin detects that we are about to enter a phishing website, it will automatically display a "This URL is phishing risk" warning (as an example, the illustration shows a phishing link "defilllama" that DeFiLlama once used, which would lure users to connect their wallets and deceive them into signing, thus stealing their assets).

4. AI Bot

In addition, while surfing the chain, are you unsure about which authorized actions may pose risks? And when you encounter issues, do you not know how to quickly revoke high-risk authorizations?

When we encounter these security concerns on the chain, GoPlus's AI Bot serves as our 24/7 on-chain security assistant. Whether we encounter security issues in transactions, DApp access, signature operations, or other on-chain activities, the AI Bot can respond instantly, providing professional advice and real-time support around the clock.

5. Security Checklist

Do you often overlook periodically checking the security of on-chain interactions, or miss key security alerts due to an overload of information?

Addressing this, GoPlus's plugin dynamically sends personalized security suggestions based on on-chain behavior and the environment, helping users proactively monitor the current security status of on-chain interactions and providing specific optimization operation guidance to ensure that every user remains in a protected state.

Furthermore, we can also participate in various security activity tasks, complete tasks to earn rewards, further enhancing security awareness and protection capabilities.

Why Do You Definitely Need an On-chain Security Plugin?

Facing an increasingly complex on-chain environment, relying on user judgment to assess risks has become more and more challenging. Therefore, the significance of a security plugin lies in providing users with a real-time protective barrier, especially in scenarios involving frequent and complex transactions. However, since the plugin itself requires certain authorization permissions, choosing a trusted tool is crucial.

Brand reputation, institutional endorsement, and end-to-end protection capabilities are all important criteria to ensure the reliability and long-term stability of the plugin. GoPlus's advantage lies in not only providing a seamless one-stop security solution throughout the process but also having received investments from top institutions such as Binance Labs and OKX Ventures.

Moreover, many users may already be deeply using GoPlus's security services unknowingly because GoPlus has been widely integrated into various mainstream on-chain tools and ecosystems:

Wide Coverage: Already supported on over 30 mainnet chains including Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Base, and Sui, providing extensive and stable services;

Mainstream Platform/Protocol Adoption: Widely adopted and integrated by Trust Wallet, CoinMarketCap, OKX Wallet, Bybit, DexScreener, Dextool, SushiSwap, and others;

Serving Mainstream User Base: Averaging over 34 million daily API calls, with over 4 billion total calls, covering over 90% of on-chain transactions, and its open security application platform has also served over 12 million on-chain users;

In a sense, a chain security plug-in like GoPlus, endorsed by reputable institutions and providing end-to-end transaction protection, is not just a tool, but a crucial and essential security barrier. Simply download and install the plug-in without complex configurations, and it will immediately start working, allowing everyone to focus on their Web3 activities without constantly worrying about security issues.

Whether it's trading, browsing DApps, or participating in DeFi projects, GoPlus silently provides protection in the background, allowing us to concentrate more on our on-chain investments and interactions.

Furthermore, security needs always evolve with the changes in the Web3 environment. GoPlus's security plug-in not only provides comprehensive security upon initial installation but will also automatically receive continuous updates and feature iterations to constantly enhance its protective capabilities. This includes updating risk identification rules based on the latest attack patterns and vulnerability data, ensuring that users are always under the latest security protection in the ever-changing Web3 environment.
