GoPlus Security Türkiye API usage spikes to 92.7 million BNB queries

GoPlus Security Türkiye’s latest usage report shows its Token Risk API handling more than 92.7 million BNB‑Chain queries and 84 million Ethereum queries, underscoring a sharp rise in demand for Web3 security data as threats proliferate across major blockchains【1】.

Record API demand across top ecosystems

The report highlights that GoPlus’s suite of security APIs—covering token risk, NFT risk, malicious address monitoring, and dApp security—has seen usage spikes beginning in November 2023, with some days exceeding 20 million calls. This surge mirrors broader industry moves toward pre‑emptive risk identification, as developers and traders seek real‑time threat intelligence. BNB‑Chain emerged as the most queried network, reflecting its large community’s focus on mitigating token vulnerabilities, while Ethereum’s 84 million queries confirm continued vigilance on the world’s largest smart‑contract platform. Polygon, though smaller, still generated nearly 10 million queries, indicating that even less‑scaled ecosystems are prioritizing security data.

Threat landscape drives adoption

Analysis of the API logs revealed a volatile mix of “high‑risk” tokens—most often flagged as blacklisted or honeypots—and an exponential rise in NFT‑related threats such as unauthorized minting, restricted approvals, and self‑destruct mechanisms. These findings suggest that hackers are diversifying tactics, prompting projects to adopt dynamic security tools like GoPlus’s dApp Security API for real‑time monitoring. The report also identified ten token collections and ten NFT projects deemed especially malicious, reinforcing the need for continuous on‑chain risk assessment.

What to watch

• API call thresholds – Monitor whether daily calls sustain above 20 million, which would signal continued escalation in security demand.
• High‑risk token alerts – Track the number of newly flagged blacklisted or honeypot tokens, especially on BNB‑Chain and Ethereum, for early threat signals.
• Upcoming API feature releases – GoPlus’s roadmap includes new “Secscan” and middleware services; adoption spikes around these launches could reshape security tooling dynamics.

The surge in GoPlus API usage illustrates a maturing Web3 ecosystem that increasingly relies on data‑driven security, yet the rapid evolution of attack vectors means the need for adaptable, real‑time defenses will only grow.
