Cyvers offers a unified threat prevention platform covering Security, Compliance, and Scams across the full digital asset transaction lifecycle. CORE PRODUCTS: 1. PRE-TRANSACTION FIREWALL (Cyvers Interceptor) Intercepts every transaction before signing. Simulates payload, computes balance changes & contract state diffs, checks against real-time threat database. Detects: wallet hacks, malicious contracts, address poisoning, smart contract exploits, phishing, pig butchering, mixers, rug-pulls. Integrates with Fireblocks, Gnosis Safe, Ledger Enterprise. Sub-second response, scales to millions of simulations/month. 2. SECURE CO-SIGNER Intelligent co-signing that simulates every transaction before approval. Blocks: treasury drains, blind signing, malicious upgrades, rug-pulls. Enforces policy rules at runtime. Eliminates blind signing risk — directly addresses the Bybit attack vector. Compatible with MPC and multisig stacks. 3. REAL-TIME FRAUD DETECTION Geometric AI continuously monitors wallet activity. Detects: pig butchering, phishing, authorized push payment fraud, account takeovers, fraud network mapping. Features: Pre Withdrawal API Screening, Real-time Transaction Monitoring, Agentic AI Fraud Investigation. Case study: $600M+ in scam losses prevented for Crypto.com, 150K+ transactions blocked, 500+ investigation hours saved. 4.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS: Deyan Tsvetkov, SVP Risk @ Crypto.com: 'Cyvers has delivered exceptional fraud-detection results for Crypto.com, with data quality and accuracy in the 98% range. Thanks to their platform, we've already intercepted hundreds of thousands of scam transactions worth over $450M, protecting tens of thousands of our customers.' Charles Guillemet, CTO @ Ledger: 'Cyvers powers the transaction check security engine we rely on. Their solution enables our 8 million users to simulate every transaction and block suspicious transfers in real time. This combination of precision and speed is a game-changer for protecting our customers and the broader crypto ecosystem.' Martins Benkitis, CEO @ Gravity Team: 'Cyvers alerted us before the $1.5B Bybit incident even happened, allowing us to act in time. It's a powerful and truly innovative platform.' Rajesh Sabari, CCO @ Liminal Custody: 'By embedding Cyvers' intelligence at the core, we're turning custody into a real-time defence layer that protects our clients and their users from illicit activity.' Milan Velev, CISO @ Nexo: 'Cyvers's platform presents strong capabilities in threat intelligence and transaction simulations vs. the competitors we examined.' CASE STUDY — Ledger: - Solution: Pre-Chain Transaction Firewall, native Ledger integration, Mobile App Reports - Impact: $49B+ in transactions secured, +2K malicious transactions blocked, +$41M saved - Ledger uses Cyvers to simulate 120 million transactions annually CASE STUDY — Crypto.com: - Solution: Pre Withdrawal API Screening, Real-time Transaction Monitoring, Agentic AI Fraud Investigation - Impact: $600M+ in scam losses prevented, 150K+ transactions blocked, 500+ investigation hours saved CASE STUDY — 21.co: - Cyvers monitored and secured over 138 million transactions involving 21.co smart contracts and treasuries

CYVERS VS CHAINALYSIS: Cyvers: - Proactive Compliance — Real-time prevention, stops fraud & hacks BEFORE execution - Automated, AI-driven, real-time architecture - Built for live detection: on-chain streaming, sub-second alerts, real-time graph intelligence - Proprietary attack dataset from thousands of real incidents - Ensemble of AI models + domain knowledge engine - Prevents attacks, scams, drainers, fraud BEFORE funds move Chainalysis: - Reactive Compliance — Post-incident forensics, explains what happened AFTER loss - Manual-heavy, human investigators - Built for historical analytics: offline tracing, attribution, case building - Sanctions & AML-focused attribution dataset - Limited ML; manual attribution pipeline - Detects & analyzes only AFTER the attack Summary: 'Cyvers prevents what Chainalysis investigates. Chainalysis reacts after loss.' LIFI DIAMOND EXPLOIT CASE STUDY: Chainalysis, Elliptic, and TRM all showed 'Low' risk for the Li.Fi Diamond deposit address. Cyvers flagged it as HIGH risk because it traced the funds back through Tornado Cash via complex atomic transactions. This illustrates the fundamental limitation of static attribution vs. real-time graph intelligence. Cyvers exclusively detected 70% of the largest losses since 2024 — meaning most major hacks were NOT detected by Chainalysis, TRM, or Elliptic.

REGULATORY ACCELERATION (2024-2025): US REGULATIONS: - CLARITY Act (Jul 2025): Delineates when digital assets are securities vs. commodities - GENIUS Act (Jul 2025): First federal crypto law — framework for payment stablecoins, bank regulators oversee issuers - Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (Mar 2025): Executive Order to hold seized BTC as strategic reserve - NYDFS Blockchain Analytics Guidance (Sep 2025): All NYDFS-regulated banks must use blockchain analytics - CFPB Proposal: Crypto companies to reimburse users for fraud losses EU: - MiCA (2024-2025): Licensing, consumer protection, market abuse rules across all 27 member states - DORA (Jan 2025): Cybersecurity, incident reporting, resilience requirements UK: - APP Fraud Rules (Oct 2024): PSPs must reimburse victims up to £85,000 within days of fraud report - Draft Financial Services Act 2025 for cryptoassets SINGAPORE: - Shared Responsibility Framework (Dec 2024): Real-time fraud surveillance required; shared liability for phishing scams DUBAI: - VARA Rulebook Updates 2025: Tightened AML/CFT, FATF Travel Rule obligations HONG KONG: - Stablecoin Bill (May 2025, effective Aug 2025) GLOBAL: - 99 jurisdictions implementing FATF Travel Rule by 2025 KEY IMPLICATION: Regulatory expansion makes proactive risk control a structural necessity. Exchanges that fail to protect users from scams face legal liability, mandatory reimbursements, and license revocation. In September 2025, US District Court ruled victims of pig butchering could sue exchanges for failing to police their platforms.
