CORE THESIS:
Crypto wallets are entering a new phase. Originally built for storing private keys, they are evolving 
into active gateways. Modern infrastructure must govern intent, not just access, to preserve 
operational discipline in decentralized systems.

engagement.
• Visibility
Real-time insight into on-chain positions 
and dynamic asset exposure.
• Automation
Alignment with internal operational 
processes to manage complex transaction 
steps.
THE CHALLENGE: DeFi transactions involve multiple steps and dynamic 
movements.
Without structured controls, operational risk increases.
