BTCS integrates with Forta to construct compliant Ethereum blocks

BTCS and the Forta Network announced an integration aimed at bolstering blockchain regulatory compliance. In January 2024, BTCS introduced Builder+, an Ethereum block builder. Builder+ utilizes advanced algorithms to maximize validator revenue by constructing optimized blocks for on-chain validation. BTCS believes Builder+ should enhance its Ethereum blockchain infrastructure and create opportunities for new growth. BTCS has incorporated Forta’s AI-powered threat intelligence into Builder+, its Ethereum block-building operations. This sophisticated intelligence extends beyond merely screening wallet addresses on the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list but also screens certain other tangentially connected or associated wallet addresses to enhance compliance and the detection of suspicious activities during the block construction phase.
