9. D3fenders Watchtower Setup & Troubleshooting

🛡️ Watchtower User Guide

Overview

Watchtower is a free, AI-powered Discord bot developed by D3fenders that scans Solana and EVM wallets for signs of compromise.

It’s designed to help users quickly identify if their wallet has interacted with blacklisted addresses, been exposed to drainer activity, or shows patterns consistent with a leaked seed phrase — all directly from Discord.

🔍 What Watchtower Does

When a user clicks the Scan Wallet button, Watchtower:

  1. Identifies the chain based on the address (Solana or EVM)

  2. Fetches transaction history

    • Solana: via Helius API

    • EVM: via Polygonscan API

  3. Checks blacklists

    • Solana: Phantom’s blocklist

    • EVM: MetaMask’s phishing domain blocklist

  4. Uses GPT-3.5 Turbo to review wallet activity and assign a risk score

  5. Returns a private result to the user:

    • 🟢 Safe

    • ⚠️ Warning

    • 🔴 Compromised With an explanation and next steps.

🔄 Ongoing Development

Watchtower is in active development. We are constantly shipping updates to improve accuracy, performance, and features — including expanded blacklist coverage, new chain support, and deeper behavioral analysis.

What you’re using today will only get better with time.

If you have ideas or feedback, we’re listening.

  3. Wait a few seconds for the scan to complete.

  4. Receive your private result directly in Discord.

🧠 Why We Use AI

Watchtower uses OpenAI's GPT-3.5 to analyze transaction patterns in real time. This allows us to go beyond static heuristics and provide context-aware evaluations based on:

  • Drainer activity

  • Interaction frequency with suspicious contracts

  • Unusual gas/token transfers

  • Known phishing tactics

👐 Community Access

Watchtower is free for all communities. Why? Because security is for everyone.
