Web3 can be all fun and games, but it can quickly turn into a nightmare if you fall victim to scams or hacks. In 2023, nearly $1B in crypto assets have been lost or stolen through security exploits, with Q3 being reported as the quarter with the highest losses from security incidents, so far — a harsh reminder that securing your crypto assets is not something to be taken lightly. But, here's the good news: there are security practices and tools you can use to keep your crypto assets secure.

The wait is over — Arbitrum is now on Dispatch! This means it’s now easier than ever to get real-time alerts and data for activity on Arbitrum, whether you need smart contract activity or wallet monitoring. So far, teams have used Dispatch beta to keep an eye on potential security incidents, key gameplay events, on-chain betting activities, and track claimed and forged items, just to name a few use cases. And now we’re so excited to welcome those of you who are building or active on Arbitrum.

We're excited to announce another much-requested Dispatch update: smart contract function alerts!

While developers and product managers have been loving our real-time smart contract event monitoring, being able to use smart contract function calls to trigger alerts and other automated workflows can add even more granular insights and controls.

Can the world of sports betting break free from geographical boundaries and local regulations? Setoros Protocol says 'yes'.

Welcome to the third episode of Web3 Mavericks, where we share insights from the innovative minds shaping the frontiers of Web3 gaming, phygital experiences, betting protocols, and more. In this episode, we had the pleasure of chatting with Tsuigeo, the visionary behind Setoros Protocol, a decentralized sports betting platform built on Base.

Base, the Ethereum Layer 2 network by Coinbase, has become a thriving hub of innovation and collaboration in Web3. In this blog, we'll take you on a journey through some of the most interesting projects building on Base. From social decentralized apps (dApps) to NFTs and action-packed games, these projects showcase the creativity of Web3 teams. So, let's dive in and explore the standout projects that have really caught our eye.

We’re pleased to announce that we’re now welcoming project teams and communities on the Base network to join the Dispatch beta! Whether you want to build better Web3 experiences faster, keep community engagement growing, or track your favorite (or competitor) projects on Base, Dispatch can save you time.

Being a marketer or community manager for Web3 projects can be tough. As with any other kind of project, you’re responsible for keeping your communities engaged, and more importantly, taking key actions to drive your business forward. But the fact that Web3 projects use smart contracts is something you can use to your advantage.

As the NFT market gets more and more crowded, utility and exclusivity are becoming increasingly important to draw buyers and collectors. Nowhere is that more evident than the rise of membership NFTs like PROOF Collective and LinksDAO.

While many of the blue chip NFTs that have dominated headlines — like Bored Ape Yacht Club and Doodles — grant holders' status (due to high cost) and access to exclusive experiences, in this trend report we’re going to walk through some of the most interesting membership NFTs that were created and purpose-built to provide holders with tangible membership benefits.
