BlockThreat Community
Not everyone doing important security work in the ecosystem can afford a paid subscription such as students, independent security researchers, solo defenders, and public goods teams. BlockThreat Community exists to close that gap.
It's a free, sponsored, annual subscription that gives you the same threat intelligence paid subscribers rely on, at no cost.
Made possible by
BlockThreat Community is funded by The DAO Security Fund, our lead sponsor, along with support from:
Every subscription here is backed by an organization that wants the next generation of defenders to have the best possible threat intelligence.
