Taro just presented this at #usesec25, and will be manning the poster shortly. If you are around we would love to hear from you.
New research alert 🚨 from my group, “Blockchain Address Poisoning” (Tsuchiya et al.), to appear at USENIX Security 2025 (arxiv.org/abs/2501.16681)! As a follow-up, we also developed a real-time detection system: cryptotrade.cylab.cmu.edu/poisoning/ and x.com/toxin_tagger (1/7)
Blockchain Address Poisoning
In many blockchains, e.g., Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), the primary representation used for wallet addresses is a hardly memorable 40-digit hexadecimal string. As a result, users often select ...

Blockchain Amplification Attack | Proceedings of the ACM on Measurement and Analysis of Computing Systems
Strategies related to the blockchain concept of Extractable Value (MEV/BEV), such
as arbitrage, front-, or back-running create strong economic incentives for network
nodes to reduce latency. Modified ...
