Using AI to Secure Dapps and Users
summary
Zircuit builds an OP Stack-based L2 that embeds an AI detection engine into the sequencer to quarantine suspicious transactions at block-build time, aiming to block front-running and private-mempool exploits in real time. The system claims detection with <0.1% false positive rates, minimal latency overhead, and preserves scalability and standard wallet compatibility; quarantined transactions can be released if legitimate, and most known exploit patterns are caught before on-chain finality.
