Blockaid Partners with Predicate to Bring Real-Time Risk Exposure to Onchain Compliance

Executive Summary

Predicate builds programmable policy infrastructure for onchain financial products in regulated markets. Developers use Predicate to define compliance rules covering everything from sanctions screening and KYC/KYB to collateral requirements and jurisdictional geofencing, and enforce them directly at the smart contract layer in real time. .

Predicate has partnered with Blockaid to enable policies powered by our real-time risk exposure data. Predicate's clients can now check addresses against Blockchain’s continuously updated signals on stolen funds, active exploits, and malicious smart contracts, with policies configured to automatically prevent transactions from high-risk addresses before they execute.

The move reflects a broader shift in onchain compliance, from static, after-the-fact reporting toward dynamic enforcement that pre-empts high-risk transactions. That shift matters for organizations operating onchain that need their compliance decisions to keep pace with how quickly funds actually move.

The Partnership

Compliance tooling has strong coverage across the categories it was built for. Sanctions lists, known bad actors, and entity attribution rely on data whose status is established once and holds over time, and the batch-refresh cadence that data runs on fits those categories well.

Incidents and hacks are a different category, because the addresses moving stolen funds don't exist as a risk signal until the moment the exploit starts, and attackers typically move those funds through swaps, bridges, and mixers within minutes. Any risk data source that refreshes on a batch cadence, regardless of vendor, is structurally behind the attacker in that window. A policy engine checking one of those addresses during an exploit can return a clean result on a wallet that is actively laundering stolen funds, not because the policy failed, but because the data behind it hasn’t caught up yet.

Blockaid's Risk Exposure API is built on the same real-time detection engine that identifies exploits as they happen across the ecosystem, which means the moment a wallet is tied to an active hack, that signal flows into Predicate's policy engine immediately rather than on the next refresh cycle. Predicate's clients can now check an address against continuously updated signals on stolen funds, exploit-related addresses, and malicious smart contracts, and configure their policy engine to act on that signal automatically before a transaction executes.

Closing the Gap with Blockaid’s Risk Exposure API

Blockaid's Risk Exposure API delivers this real-time signal across three surfaces, so Predicate's policy layer can enforce compliance decisions wherever risk actually shows up:

• Risk Screening API for inflows: screens incoming funds for exposure to stolen assets, exploits, and wallet drainers, returning a compliance verdict in under 300 milliseconds along with the exposure category, USD value, and percentage of funds affected.
• Transaction Policy Engine for outflows: enforces compliance thresholds automatically within an existing multisig workflow through Blockaid's Cosigner Policy Engine, evaluating every gaining address in a transaction rather than relying on a static blacklist.
• DeFi Toxicity Monitors for custody: continuously monitors liquidity positions and the pools around them, since exposure can shift minute to minute even without a new transaction.

The result is a verdict built on the most recent onchain activity, refreshed continuously as new incidents surface.
