GENESIS / Free address check
No sign-in No wallet connection No private keys
More about this check
We compare an Ethereum-style address (starting with 0x) against available threat reports. Other wallet formats and names are not supported yet.
No known reports does not mean an address or future transaction is safe. We process the address and basic request data to provide the check; some usage and security data may be retained. Privacy details

From address to insight.
A useful signal before you interact, not a promise that a future transaction is safe.

The Risk Most People Don't See
Every transaction carries risk. Here's what can go wrong.
Phishing & Fake Apps
You click what looks like Uniswap, but it's a fake site. You sign a transaction giving them your tokens.
Could lose: Everything
Sneaky Permissions
You approve a swap, but the transaction gives unlimited spending access to a stranger's contract.
Could lose: All tokens
Rug Pulls & Drains
You transfer your wallet's entire balance to what you think is a safe address.
Could lose: Everything
Here's the problem:
You can't see what a transaction really does by just looking at it. Your wallet shows you the fees and the destination, but not what the smart contract will actually execute once you sign. Scammers exploit this blind spot every day, draining thousands of wallets.
Even experienced traders get caught. A convincing website, a typo in an address, or an overlooked permission and your entire portfolio disappears in seconds.
That's where GENESIS comes in:
See what you're actually signing. GENESIS decodes the transaction and explains it in plain English.
Check against known threats. Powered by the community, we maintain a live list of known drainers and malicious contracts.
Get a clear verdict: ALLOW, WARN, or BLOCK. Before you ever sign.
Takes 2 seconds. Copy your transaction, paste it, get your answer. Then decide confidently.

A new app requests permissions. Verify who receives access before signing.

The bigger picture
Checking crypto transactions is step one. Underneath, GENESIS is a simple idea: catch a risky action and explain it in plain English before you commit to it.
The same safety check can protect far more than wallets. Curious where we're headed and how it works under the hood?
Read the vision →Questions? We've got answers
Understand the basics
What's an 'approval'?
When you sign a transaction, you often give it permission to spend your tokens. GENESIS watches for suspicious permissions.
Why is this dangerous?
A hacker can use an old permission you gave to another app to drain your wallet without you signing again.
How does GENESIS know about threats?
Community members report dangerous addresses and malicious contracts. GENESIS checks if you're about to interact with one of them.
What's a 'permit' signature?
A fancier way to give permission that's more secure and doesn't always cost gas.
