    Bicscan

    Security · Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain

    BICScan is a blockchain risk-screening service for checking addresses, contracts and dApp links before you interact with them. Its free tier is limited, and you should treat its scores as a warning signal—not proof that an address is safe.

    Quick Intel

    Security · Base, Ethereum

    Quick Intel is a multi-chain token-security service with APIs for builders and scanning tools for crypto users. Its risk signals can help you investigate a token, but they are not a guarantee that it is safe.

    Xaudits

    Security · Ethereum, Base, Solana +3

    Sherlock logo

    Sherlock

    Security · Ethereum

    Sherlock is a smart-contract security provider offering audits, contests, AI-assisted reviews and bug bounties. It is not a typical crypto app for depositing funds, and pricing and engagement terms need checking before you hire it.

    Hats.V2

    Security · Arbitrum, Ethereum, Polygon +2

    Hats.V2 is an onchain platform for smart-contract bug bounties and audit competitions. Its basic purpose and supported chains are clear, but details on fees, safeguards and how to participate need checking before you commit funds or work.

    Secwarex

    Security · Ethereum, BNB Chain
