PHISHGUARD

PhishGuard
The World’s Fastest Anti-Phishing Layer

1. The Threat

Phishing is the #1 cause of crypto asset loss

• Over $11M stolen from Bittensor users in 2024 alone

• Phishing links spread via:

  • X (Twitter), Telegram, Discord

  • Email & fake Web3 front-ends

• Attacks evolve hourly, not weekly

• Users click before warnings appear

2. The Gap

Centralized blocklists are “too little, too late”

• Rely on:

  • Manual reports

  • Delayed moderation

  • Single-point-of-failure infrastructure

• Average response time: minutes → hours

• Zero-day phishing links cause damage in seconds

Result: By the time a URL is flagged, funds are already gone.

3. The Solution

PhishGuard: Decentralized, AI-Driven, Real-Time

• A Bittensor subnet for phishing detection

• Scans URLs before users interact

• Detects threats using:

  • Vision AI (UI spoofing)

  • Behavioral analysis (wallet-draining flows)

• Outputs a real-time phishing risk score

4. Subnet Flywheel

The PhishGuard Network Effect

1. More miners join the subnet

2. Faster & broader phishing discovery

3. Better protection for users & apps

4. Higher usage → more subnet rewards

5. Increased demand for $TAO

Flywheel Outcome: Security quality compounds with network growth.
