Arkham is a blockchain analysis platform that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to unravel blockchain and on-chain data mystery. It combines two core components: the Analytics Platform and the Intel Exchange, to offer a comprehensive blockchain intelligence solution.
Arkham operates as a decentralized on-chain intelligence platform, using a proprietary AI system, ULTRA, to connect wallet addresses to real-world entities. This allows for detailed analytics on entities, exchanges, funds, and tokens. The platform integrates with the Ethereum blockchain and utilizes a Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism. It also supports the exchange of blockchain intelligence through smart contracts, facilitating a marketplace where users can trade on-chain intelligence.
Arkham's platform can be used for several applications, including:
Founded in 2020 by Miguel Morel, Arkham has achieved notable milestones such as identifying significant financial ties of Celsius Network and tracking the movements of hackers who breached platforms like FTX. The platform has raised over $10 million from investors like OpenAI and Palantir, and in 2023, it launched its Intel Exchange, the first on-chain intelligence marketplace. Arkham has also partnered with Polygon, integrating its blockchain to enhance coverage and data capabilities.
