Core Detection Capabilities
Our detection engine combines on-chain data analysis with behavioral modeling to identify and flag market manipulation in real-time, protecting your platform's integrity and user trust.
Pump & Dump Scheme Identification
Detects rapid price inflation followed by coordinated dumping, often signaled by social media hype and sudden liquidity changes. Our models track volume spikes, holder concentration, and off-chain sentiment correlation.
Spoofing & Layering Detection
Flags fake large orders placed to create false market depth and manipulate price perception. We monitor order book patterns, rapid order cancellations, and execution intent across multiple marketplaces.
Rug Pull & Exit Scam Monitoring
Tracks developer wallet activity, liquidity removal, and contract ownership changes to provide early warnings for potential rug pulls. Monitors for suspicious token minting, fee manipulation, and admin key changes.
Market-Wide Threat Intelligence
Aggregates cross-platform data to identify manipulation campaigns targeting multiple collections or marketplaces. Provides a holistic view of attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
Business Outcomes for Your Platform
Move beyond raw data to achieve measurable improvements in platform integrity, user trust, and operational efficiency.
Protect Platform Revenue
Identify and mitigate wash trading and spoofing that artificially inflate volume, ensuring accurate royalty calculations and protecting your marketplace's primary revenue stream.
Enhance User Trust & Safety
Proactively detect pump-and-dump schemes and collusive bidding, creating a safer trading environment that retains legitimate users and attracts high-value collectors.
Improve Data Integrity for Listings
Filter out manipulated trading activity to provide accurate, clean floor prices and volume metrics, empowering users to make informed decisions based on real market demand.
Enable Proactive Compliance
Maintain a verifiable audit trail of suspicious activity detection and actions taken, supporting regulatory readiness and demonstrating a commitment to market fairness.
Reduce Operational Overhead
Automate the detection and reporting of malicious patterns, freeing your team from manual monitoring to focus on core platform development and user experience.
Drive Informed Product Decisions
Leverage insights into real vs. fake trading activity to optimize fee structures, design effective incentive programs, and prioritize feature development that serves genuine users.

Our Detection and Integration Process
A streamlined, four-phase methodology designed to integrate sophisticated NFT market manipulation detection into your platform with minimal disruption and maximum security.
1. Data Ingestion & Normalization
We connect to your data sources—on-chain via RPC nodes and off-chain via exchange APIs—and normalize the data into a unified schema. This provides a single source of truth for all NFT transaction and listing activity.
Client Value: Eliminates data silos and ensures your detection engine analyzes complete, real-time market data.
2. Pattern Detection Engine
Our proprietary algorithms analyze normalized data streams in real-time to identify wash trading, spoofing, pump-and-dump, and collusive bidding patterns. Rules are based on peer-reviewed financial market surveillance adapted for NFT mechanics.
Client Value: Proactively flags suspicious activity before it impacts your marketplace's integrity or user trust.
3. Risk Scoring & Alerting
Each detected event is assigned a dynamic risk score based on transaction volume, wallet clustering, and historical behavior. Customizable alert thresholds trigger notifications to your moderation team via Slack, Discord, or API webhooks.
Client Value: Prioritizes actionable intelligence, allowing your team to focus on high-risk incidents that require immediate intervention.
4. Integration & Dashboard
We deliver a secure API and a comprehensive admin dashboard. Integrate alerts directly into your backend moderation tools or use our UI to review cases, adjust parameters, and generate compliance reports.
Client Value: Provides full visibility and control over marketplace health, supporting both automated enforcement and human-in-the-loop review.
