Have you or your friends ever encountered phishing attacks, accidentally authorized high-risk contracts, or interacted with blacklisted addresses without knowing?

For most ordinary users, every address on the chain is essentially "naked" without security protection, and risks such as phishing and contract traps are everywhere. A careless move could turn you into a hacker's free "ATM."

However, the on-chain security protection network GoPlus has launched a brand new browser security plugin that starts with protecting every transaction, helping users eliminate various on-chain risks and create a personal "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. In fact, whether you are an old user or a new player, identifying and avoiding on-chain risks has always been a headache.

This is why the GoPlus plugin is worth trying—compared to other security plugin products on the market, it is not just a tool but more like a dedicated on-chain security assistant that adds a comprehensive risk protection barrier to every transaction and operation.

It integrates five core functions: wallet security inspection, proactive pop-up warnings, transaction environment custom detection, AI Bot, and security to-do list, which can monitor on-chain risks in real-time and accurately identify them, helping users avoid phishing attacks, blacklisted addresses, high-risk transactions, and other Web3 security threats.

Currently, the GoPlus plugin 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 Inspection

When operating on-chain, have you ever worried about potential toxic tokens/NFT assets or leftover risky authorizations in your wallet?

If you are unsure whether your wallet has security risks, you can regularly conduct self-checks through GoPlus's "Wallet Security Inspection" service—it allows us to connect our wallet and automatically check the assets and recent transaction activities in the wallet to detect potential asset risks, interaction risks, and potential risks, keeping us informed about the wallet's security status:

• Asset Risks: Automatically detects whether you hold risky tokens/NFTs, whether you have received malicious transfers from unknown addresses, and whether any held tokens have experienced a sharp price drop in a short time;
• Interaction Risks: Checks for transactions during abnormal time periods not initiated by you, checks if there have been transactions with blacklisted addresses, whether there have been large fund transfers recently, whether the Gas fees consumed during recent transactions are within normal ranges, whether there are high-risk authorizations in the wallet, whether NFTs have been stolen, and whether there have been interactions with fake phishing contracts recently;
• Potential Risks: Checks if the wallet address has been exposed on social media like Twitter, whether the stablecoins held have significantly decoupled from fiat currencies, etc.;

2. Proactive Pop-up Warnings

When we initiate every transaction on-chain, the GoPlus security plugin also conducts real-time monitoring, scanning transaction or website access behaviors in the Web3 environment, and proactively identifying high-risk transactions and websites.

Once a potential risk is detected, the GoPlus security plugin will automatically pop up a warning with a brief explanation of the risk type, reminding users to take timely precautions.

Currently, this service categorizes the security status of each transaction or operation into three risk levels after proactive detection:

• Low Risk (Green): No significant threat, users can safely continue operations;
• Medium Risk (Yellow): Possible abnormal behavior or no historical interaction records, reminding users to operate cautiously;
• High Risk (Red): Obvious malicious behavior detected, such as interacting with phishing addresses or high-risk smart contract operations, strongly advising users to stop operations;

In addition, the pop-up not only displays the risk level but also includes risk details, such as address transaction history, whether it is associated with blacklisted addresses, and records of abnormal behavior, helping us quickly understand the source of potential threats.

3. Transaction Environment Custom Detection

At the same time, each of us can flexibly customize security protection strategies based on personal needs, including signature checks, transaction checks, phishing website detection, and Twitter phishing alerts, providing a tailored security protection experience.

For example, in the case of "phishing website detection," when the plugin detects that we are about to enter a phishing website, it will automatically pop up a risk warning saying "This Url is phishing risk" (the example shows a phishing link "defilllama" that once misled users to connect their wallets and steal signatures, thus stealing assets).

4. AI Bot

In addition, when surfing on-chain, are you unsure which authorization actions might pose risks? If you encounter problems, do you not know how to quickly revoke high-risk authorizations?

When we encounter these security concerns on-chain, GoPlus's AI Bot is our 24/7 on-chain security assistant. Whether we encounter security issues during transactions, accessing DApps, signing operations, or other on-chain activities, the AI Bot can respond instantly, providing professional advice and real-time support around the clock.

5. Security To-Do List

Do you often overlook the need to regularly check the security of on-chain interactions, or miss key security alerts due to information overload?

To address this, the GoPlus plugin will periodically push personalized security suggestions based on on-chain behavior and environment dynamics, helping users stay informed about the current security status of on-chain interactions and providing specific optimization guidance to ensure that every user remains protected.

Additionally, we can participate in various security activity tasks, complete tasks to earn rewards, and further enhance our security awareness and protection capabilities.

Why is it essential to have an on-chain security plugin?

In the face of an increasingly complex on-chain environment, relying on users to judge risks has become more challenging. Therefore, the significance of a security plugin lies in providing users with a layer of real-time protective barrier, especially in scenarios involving frequent transactions and complex interactions. However, since plugins themselves require certain authorization permissions, choosing a trustworthy tool is crucial.

Brand reputation, institutional endorsement, and comprehensive protection capabilities are all important criteria for ensuring the reliability and long-term stability of a plugin. GoPlus's advantage lies in its ability to provide a seamless, end-to-end security solution while also receiving investments from top institutions such as Binance Labs and OKX Ventures.

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

• Extensive coverage: It supports over 30 public chains, including Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Base, and Sui, with a wide and stable service range;
• Adoption by mainstream platforms/protocols: It has been widely adopted and integrated by Trust Wallet, CoinMarketCap, OKX Wallet, Bybit, DexScreener, Dextool, SushiSwap, and others;
• Serving a mainstream user base: Averaging over 34 million calls per day, with a total of over 4 billion calls, covering more than 90% of users' on-chain transactions. Its open security application platform has also served over 12 million on-chain users;

In a sense, on-chain security plugins like GoPlus, which have institutional endorsements and cover the entire transaction protection process, are not just tools but also an important and essential security barrier. Simply download and install the plugin without complex settings, and it can start working immediately, allowing everyone to focus on their Web3 activities without constantly worrying about security issues.

Whether trading, browsing DApps, or participating in DeFi projects, GoPlus can quietly provide protection for users in the background, allowing us to focus more on on-chain investments and interactions.

Furthermore, the demand for security is always evolving with changes in the Web3 environment. The GoPlus security plugin not only provides comprehensive security guarantees upon initial installation but will also automatically continue to update and iterate its features in the future, constantly optimizing its protective capabilities, including 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.
