Webacy Acquires Trugard Labs

Today we are announcing something we have believed in for a long time: talented security teams in crypto need to work together if we want to build systems that actually protect users at scale.

Webacy has acquired Trugard Labs, a smart contract risk analytics company backed by Evolution Equity Partners. Trugard’s founders and team impressed us from the start. They built incredibly sharp, forward-thinking technologies, and together we shipped the industry’s first address poisoning detection system. It worked. This was just one step of many to protect users in an environment where poisoning attacks remain a silent and growing threat, and new attack vectors appear every day.

“Evolution Equity Partners has long backed cybersecurity companies that define new standards of digital trust,” said Karthik Subramanian, General Partner at Evolution Equity Partners. “We’re excited to partner with Webacy on this journey as they pioneer a unique approach of combining behavioral and contract-level intelligence. This is the blueprint for safeguarding the next generation of digital assets including stablecoins, RWAs, and institutional capital flow on-chain.”

Now we are combining forces and technology under one roof. With Trugard’s team and infrastructure joining Webacy, we can scale detection across new chains, surface hidden logic at the speed of automation, and accelerate the shift from reactive audits to predictive and continuous protection.

Crypto has a security problem. Billions are lost every year. Yet security rarely gets headlines compared to speculation, meme coins, or AI hype. The truth is that AI belongs in security. If crypto is going to onboard the next wave of users and institutional capital, we need models that learn from patterns on chain faster than attackers can evolve.

Acquiring Trugard is a step toward that future. We are building AI powered risk intelligence that sees threats before they hit wallets, trades, and protocols. We are building risk analysis systems for stablecoins, transactions, and digital assets at a scale ready for the institutions and consumers just now entering the space. The outcome is simple. Fewer losses. More trust. And an industry that feels safe to build in again.

This is a win for our customers, for the market, and for anyone trying to make crypto safer without slowing down innovation. We are just getting started.
