BNB Chain News (19th January -25th)

Welcome back to BNB Chain News 🙌

This week, we released a report on AvengerDAO's Security Milestones of 2023. The report details how BSC experienced an 85% year-over-year reduction in financial losses via security breaches. Additionally, total financial losses dropped by 64% from Q3 to Q4 in 2023. Together, we're making strong progress towards a more secure ecosystem!

We also continued to explore the possibilities of AI development on BNB Chain by analyzing how opBNB and BNB Greenfield are paving the way to decentralized AI adoption. Plus, we shared an informative video and thread about DePIN's bright future on BNB Chain.

Newly Detected High-Risk Address

AvengerDAO members provide APIs to check the security of a contract before interacting with it. They also offer relevant information, such as potential risks associated with a specific address to facilitate due diligence.

AvengerDAO API gives a comprehensive evaluation of each address. We advise you to regularly check with these APIs when receiving an airdrop for a certain token, or when interacting with contracts.

https://dappbay.bnbchain.org/risk-scanner is integrated with these APIs.

All the addresses are listed here.
