Security is not a checkbox.
The design principle at Blockcade: don't have anything valuable to steal. When we do have to hold something, protect it like our lives depend on it.
Non-custodial by design
Wallet users retain their private keys at all times. Payment gateway funds settle directly to the merchant. We architect around the fact that we can't lose your money because we never have it.
Encryption everywhere
TLS 1.3 in transit. AES-256 at rest. HSM-backed key management for any hot-wallet operations. Zero plaintext secrets in databases, ever.
Independent audits
Quarterly penetration tests by external security firms. SOC 2 Type II audit in progress. Bug bounty program pays up to $50,000 per critical vulnerability.
24/7 monitoring
Real-time anomaly detection on every API call and treasury operation. On-call engineers page within minutes of any anomaly.
