Adding real-time security alerts 

1inch has introduced the 1inch Shield, a security solution developed in collaboration with Blockaid. This system detects and marks scam tokens, helping users avoid fraudulent transactions. Integrating these features into the 1inch and broader DeFi ecosystem would provide real-time warnings about potential security risks. It supports major blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Avalanche. 

Officials from Blockaid emphasised the significance of this collaboration, stating that the partnership with 1inch is a pivotal step in securing the Web3 ecosystem.  

As per the announcement, the Shield application programming interface (API), which will be gradually integrated into 1inch products, is designed to be adaptable for any Web3 application, including decentralised applications (DApps), wallets, and exchanges. 

The partnership also aims to help the broader DeFi ecosystem. Kunz clarified that it had launched its own product and provided access to it through an API.
