The intersection of AI agents and smart contracts is creating new vulnerabilities. When autonomous systems interact with blockchain protocols, the attack surface balloons—and bad actors can exploit it in milliseconds.

This is where automated security infrastructure becomes critical. Purpose-built platforms are stepping up to secure this emerging attack vector through real-time monitoring and community-driven threat detection. By aligning incentives through native tokens tied to security contributions, these platforms create a self-reinforcing defense mechanism—turning security researchers and developers into active guardians of the ecosystem.

As AI agents proliferate across Web3, the race is on: can security measures keep pace with the speed of machine-driven transactions?
