OKX Web3 Earn integrates CertiK Skynet security ratings to further protect the Web3 world
Author: GlobeNewswire
As a leading Web3 security institution in the industry, CertiK officially announces the integration of the Skynet security rating into the OKX Web3 Earn DeFi aggregator. OKX is one of the second-largest exchanges in the Web3 currency industry and a leading Web3 technology company, while CertiK is a pioneer in blockchain security solutions.
The Skynet security rating from CertiK uses a weighted average score of a series of security indicators to assess the security status of Web3 projects, enabling users to easily and clearly evaluate the safety of the projects. By combining indicators such as code audits, operational resilience, market stability, and the background of development teams, the Skynet security rating provides investors with valuable supplementary information.
OKX Web3 Earn is a multifunctional all-in-one platform. This platform helps users fully leverage the advantages of decentralized finance, allowing them to find, compare, and manage lucrative investment opportunities across different DeFi protocols using a single, streamlined interface. By using Web3 Earn, users can find optimal earning paths across 9 different chains and over 80 DeFi protocols. Moreover, more protocols are set to join soon.
A comprehensive due diligence process is crucial; however, analyzing the security of Web3 projects is not as straightforward as it seems. With the integration of CertiK's Skynet security rating into OKX Web3 Earn, users can easily identify projects that prioritize security at their core.
"We are excited to partner with OKX," said Jason Jiang, Chief Business Officer of CertiK. "With our extensive expertise, we believe our partnership will set a standard for enhancing security and transparency in the DeFi space."
Jason Lau, Chief Innovation Officer of OKX, stated, "At OKX, we prioritize enhancing user transparency and security. While OKX's industry-leading proof of reserves system has provided transparency for assets held on the platform, we also aim to enhance transparency for users with self-custodied assets. We are pleased to implement rigorous security protocols and integrate CertiK's Skynet security rating to provide users with a simplified rating and additional confidence in assessing the safety of Earn protocols."
CertiK's mission is to elevate the security standards and transparency of Web3, and the collaboration with OKX is an important step towards a safer and more open ecosystem.
