Workshop: Navigating Cyber Threats Across the Onchain Ecosystem
Welcome to The Studio Workshop Series: sessions designed for founders who are building right now. Each workshop takes one skill that directly affects how you fundraise, grow, or ship, and breaks it down into concrete steps you can apply to your own startup.
Schedule:
🚪 5:00 PM: Doors open
💬 5:30 PM: Workshop
👥 6:30 PM: Networking
About the workshop
Every team building onchain is a target. Attackers move fast, from wallet drainers and fake tokens to exploits that trick users into signing something different from what they saw.
The better you understand how these attacks work, the better you can design against them. Join Meg Yodfat and Noah Newfield from Blockaid to break down the threats hitting builders today and how to stop them.
We’ll walk through real attack patterns, map them to a security lifecycle for building dApps, from threat modeling and audits to deployment, and show how teams use real-time monitoring and transaction validation to protect protocols and users once they’re live.
Bring your questions and a product or flow you’d like pressure-tested. We’ll use teams in the room as live case studies, and you’ll leave with a practical security checklist for your own build.
