Bybit Claims AI-Driven Monitoring System Helped Recover $300M — Here’s How It Works
Summary
Bybit announced that its AI-driven on-chain monitoring system blocked and recovered approximately $300 million in suspected scam withdrawals during the fourth quarter of 2025, protecting over 4,000 users. This security overhaul follows a massive $1.5 billion hack in February 2025. The system operates on a three-tier risk-control framework: first, proprietary AI algorithms conduct real-time blockchain analysis across various networks to flag anomalies; second, human analysts review flagged transactions, pause withdrawals, and initiate recovery if a scam is confirmed; and third, confirmed high-risk addresses are shared with industry partners like Chainalysis and TRM Labs to trace and freeze stolen funds across the ecosystem. Bybit emphasizes that this proactive approach, combining machine learning with industry collaboration, is crucial for survival in an era of increasingly sophisticated, AI-powered crypto fraud.
