Today, @almanax transitions from beta to general availability (GA). What happens when the number of lines of code engineers produce goes up 100x thanks for coding assistants like Cursor? How are security teams supposed to handle that? We believe AI will change security the same way it’s changing software engineering. Almanax is an AI security engineer designed to help security teams prevent hacks. Sign up on app.almanax.ai and integrate LLMs in your security processes.

If I were building anything touching users' money today, supply-chain attacks like this one would be what keeps me up at night. https://x.com/AlmanaxAI/status/1922355263354401268

Starting from this week, @almanax will offer offer $300 in security scan credits to the top 10 mini-apps on the leaderboard each week for the next 3 months. In practice, this means multiple full scans of mini-apps’ repos + continuous monitoring of code changes for 3 months, to prevent security vulnerabilities from making it to production. The product is self-service: https://app.almanax.ai/ To claim the prize, projects can DM me directly at the end of each cycle and I'll apply their credits. We believe mini-apps will be instrumental to drive the growth of the ecosystem, and we're excited to support their builders!

This is incredible work by Kraken. “Not all attackers break in, some try to walk through the front door” https://x.com/coindesk/status/1918380370896073190?s=46&t=a16OBx1OV2RbvWl1HoCCGQ

Had a great time at Farcon. Great to see the faces behind all the pfps I interacted with here :) And here's an article on why you should never change it from @rrhoover https://www.ryanhoover.me/post/why-i-never-change-my-profile-pic

Almanax was featured by PitchBook in their report on the top startups at Paris Blockchain Week. Love their comparison with Datadog. 👇 "Almanax, one of the three Start in Block competition winners, sets out to become the AI “security engineer” that Web3 sorely lacks. The team’s thesis is that nearly $9 billion has been stolen from crypto projects in just three years, and the attack surface is expanding faster than human auditors or rule-based scanners can cope. Almanax applies large language model (LLM) agents to reason across entire codebases—smart contracts, traditional back-end services, and even software supply chain dependencies—and flags exploitable logic with far fewer false positives than legacy static analysis tools."
