Abstract

In a world where users face the dilemma of becoming custodians of their assets or relying on precarious holding companies, the cryptocurrency landscape is rife with risk. Every five seconds, a new rug pull emerges, each more sophisticated than the last, leaving investors vulnerable in a realm of fast cash and faster losses. Both optimists and scammers tread these volatile fields, creating an ecosystem where trust is scarce and security is paramount.

We propose 0xArgus, a decentralized asset protection system designed to safeguard users against the rising tide of cryptocurrency fraud. By leveraging advanced monitoring algorithms and smart contract technology, 0xArgus creates a protective layer around users' digital assets, continuously scanning for signs of malicious activity and executing defensive measures at machine speed.

At the core of 0xArgus is a novel implementation of Permit2 technology, allowing for granular permissions that empower the system to act on behalf of users without compromising overall wallet security. This mechanism enables 0xArgus to front-run detected fraudulent transactions, safely extracting users' holdings before they can be compromised.

The 0xArgus ecosystem is built on a foundation of transparency and community governance. Token holders not only gain access to protection services but also participate in the platform's decision-making processes. This alignment of interests creates a self-reinforcing cycle of security and value generation within the network.

By introducing a market-driven approach to asset protection, 0xArgus aims to efficiently produce and distribute security intelligence across the cryptocurrency space. Peers within the network evaluate and rank protection strategies, with high-performing approaches rewarded through a carefully crafted incentive mechanism. This system is designed to resist collusion attempts, ensuring the integrity of the protection offered even in the face of adversarial actors controlling up to 51 percent of the network weight.

The result is a collectively maintained, continuously evolving shield against cryptocurrency fraud, rewarding contributors who enhance the network's protective capabilities and fostering an environment of trust in an otherwise uncertain digital frontier. 0xArgus stands as a beacon of security in the tumultuous seas of decentralized finance, offering users the confidence to navigate the crypto waters without fear of sudden, catastrophic loss.
