TREE NEWS update: Gate and blockchain security firm BlockSec launched the first installment of a joint security course on account takeover, phishing and social engineering. BlockSec, founded in 2021, says it serves over 1,000 clients and has protected more than $50 billion in on-chain assets, with an illicit-address label library of over 600 million entries. Gate, founded in 2013, says it serves more than 60 million users and was the first exchange to offer 100% proof of reserves.
Gate and BlockSec Launch Security Course on Phishing and Account Theft
Exchange-led security education is a notable shift: rather than only pushing detection tooling, Gate is pairing with BlockSec to address the human layer, where account takeover and social engineering typically originate. The reach matters more than the curriculum itself — an exchange with tens of millions of users can distribute basic hygiene at a scale security vendors cannot. Whether such programs measurably reduce user losses, rather than serving as brand positioning, is the open question worth watching.
