Healthcare insurance provides financial support to access medical services for patients while ensuring timely and guaranteed payment for providers. Insurance fraud poses a significant challenge to insurance companies and policyholders, leading to increased costs and compromised healthcare treatment and service delivery. Most frauds, like phantom billing, upcoding, and unbundling, happen due to the lack of required entity participation. Also, claim activities are not transparent and accountable. Fraud can be prevented and minimized by involving every entity and making actions transparent and accountable. This paper proposes a blockchain-powered smart contract-based insurance claim processing mechanism to prevent and minimize fraud in response to this prevailing issue. All entities-patients, providers, and insurance companies-actively participate in the claim submission, approval, and acknowledgment process through a multi-signature technique. Also, every activity is captured and recorded in the blockchain using smart contracts to make every action transparent and accountable so that no entity can deny its actions and responsibilities. Blockchains' immutable storage property and strong integrity guarantee that recorded activities are not modified. As healthcare systems and insurance companies continue to deal with fraud challenges, this proposed approach holds the potential to significantly reduce fraudulent activities, ultimately benefiting both insurers and policyholders. The average gas costs for smart contract deployment, claim submission, and multi-signature for the Ethereum network: $80.22, $20.60, and $6.47, and for the Optimism network: $0.35, $0.089, and $0.028. They are feasible for the proposed approach.
The rapid growth of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) has been accompanied by substantial financial losses due to smart contract vulnerabilities, underscoring the critical need for effective security auditing. With attacks becoming more frequent, the necessity and demand for auditing services has escalated. This especially creates a financial burden for independent developers and small businesses, who often have limited available funding for these services. Our study builds upon existing frameworks by integrating Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with large language models (LLMs), specifically employing GPT-4-1106 for its 128k token context window. We construct a vector store of 830 known vulnerable contracts, leveraging Pinecone for vector storage, OpenAI's text-embedding-ada-002 for embeddings, and LangChain to construct the RAG-LLM pipeline. Prompts were designed to provide a binary answer for vulnerability detection. We first test 52 smart contracts 40 times each against a provided vulnerability type, verifying the replicability and consistency of the RAG-LLM. Encouraging results were observed, with a 62.7% success rate in guided detection of vulnerabilities. Second, we challenge the model under a "blind" audit setup, without the vulnerability type provided in the prompt, wherein 219 contracts undergo 40 tests each. This setup evaluates the general vulnerability detection capabilities without hinted context assistance. Under these conditions, a 60.71% success rate was observed. While the results are promising, we still emphasize the need for human auditing at this time. We provide this study as a proof of concept for a cost-effective smart contract auditing process, moving towards democratic access to security.

Smart contracts are programs that reside on a block-chain. A key feature of smart contracts is their immutability, meaning that they cannot be modified once they are deployed. Despite existing efforts to uncover vulnerabilities, a common assumption is that loop structures rarely occur in smart contracts. Traditional search-based algorithms encounter challenges in uniform exploration, particularly in complex control flow paths where certain paths are more critical than others for fault detection. To overcome this challenge, we propose an adaptive probabilistic sampling strategy that allows for targeted exploration of critical paths. The proposed adaptive probabilistic sampling strategy empowers search-based algorithms to select individuals covering paths with defects. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed adaptive probabilistic sampling strategy in ensuring targeted exploration of critical paths within smart contract loops and enhanced mutant-killing capabilities when combined with search-based algorithms.
This paper presents SCareGPT, an advanced smart contract auditing tool that harnesses domain-specific GPT Assistant technology to enhance vulnerability detection and analysis.

Our findings demonstrate that SCareGPT excels beyond these competitors in the majority of assessed vulnerability categories, affirming its superiority and utility in the rapidly evolving domain of smart contract security.
Anomaly detection in the financial system has been studied for decades. Anomalies refer to irregular items or events that are different from the majority. Therefore, illegal activities are anomalous by nature because it is opposed to the norm. Preventive actions like anomalous detection play an important role in avoiding incidents that damage people's property. In this paper, the Bitcoin network is the subject of the study. We consider the effectiveness of two unsupervised learning algorithms, Histogram-based Outlier Score (HBOS) and Isolation Forest, for detecting anomalous transactions and wallet addresses. Providing insights into the strengths and weaknesses of HBOS and Isolation Forest for anomaly detection. We also analyze which features are the most important for each algorithm in identifying anomalies. The result shows similar detection for both algorithms. While HBOS has higher wallet visualization score at 0.423, Isolation Forest yields better scores on transaction visualization, dual, and known-thieves evaluations with score of 0.713, 0.681, and 0.035, respectively.
BACKGROUND: Health care insurance fraud is on the rise in many ways, such as falsifying information and hiding third-party liability. This can result in significant losses for the medical health insurance industry. Consequently, fraud detection is crucial. Currently, companies employ auditors who manually evaluate records and pinpoint fraud. However, an automated and effective method is needed to detect fraud with the continually increasing number of patients seeking health insurance. Blockchain is an emerging technology and is constantly evolving to meet business needs. With its characteristics of immutability, transparency, traceability, and smart contracts, it demonstrates its potential in the health care domain. In particular, self-executable smart contracts are essential to reduce the costs associated with traditional paradigms, which are mostly manual, while preserving privacy and building trust among health care stakeholders, including the patient and the health insurance networks. However, with the proliferation of blockchain development platform options, selecting the right one for health care insurance can be difficult. This study addressed this void and developed an automated decision map recommender system to select the most effective blockchain platform for insurance fraud detection. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to develop smart contracts for detecting health care insurance fraud efficiently. Therefore, we provided a taxonomy of fraud scenarios and implemented their detection using a blockchain platform that was suitable for health care insurance fraud detection. To automatically and efficiently select the best platform, we proposed and implemented a decision map-based recommender system. For developing the decision-map, we proposed a taxonomy of 102 blockchain platforms. METHODS: We developed smart contracts for 12 fraud scenarios that we identified in the literature. We used the top 2 blockchain platforms selected by our proposed decision-making map-based recommender system, which is tailored for health care insurance fraud. The map used our taxonomy of 102 blockchain platforms classified according to their application domains. RESULTS: The recommender system demonstrated that Hyperledger Fabric was the best blockchain platform for identifying health care insurance fraud. We validated our recommender system by comparing the performance of the top 2 platforms selected by our system. The blockchain platform taxonomy that we created revealed that 59 blockchain platforms are suitable for all application domains, 25 are suitable for financial services, and 18 are suitable for various application domains. We implemented fraud detection based on smart contracts. CONCLUSIONS: Our decision map recommender system, which was based on our proposed taxonomy of 102 platforms, automatically selected the top 2 platforms, which were Hyperledger Fabric and Neo, for the implementation of health care insurance fraud detection. Our performance evaluation of the 2 platforms indicated that Fabric surpassed Neo in all performance metrics, as depicted by our recommender system. We provided an implementation of fraud detection based on smart contracts.

With the increasing popularity of Decentralized Applications (DApps) in blockchain, securing smart contracts has been a long-term, high-priority subject in the domain. Among the various research directions for vulnerability detection, fuzzing has received extensive attention because of its high effectiveness. However, with the increasing complexity of smart contracts, existing fuzzers may waste substantial time exploring locations irrelevant to smart contract vulnerabilities. In this article, we present FunFuzz, a function-oriented fuzzer, which is dedicatedly tailored for detecting smart contract vulnerability with high effectiveness and efficiency. The key observation in our research is that most smart contract vulnerabilities exist in specific functions rather than randomly distributed in all program code like other traditional software. To this end, unlike traditional fuzzers which mainly target code coverage, FunFuzz identifies risky functions while pruning non-risky ones in smart contracts. In this way, it significantly narrows down the exploration scope during the fuzzing process. In addition, FunFuzz employs three unique strategies to direct itself toward effectively discovering vulnerabilities specific to smart contracts (e.g., reentrancy, block dependency, and gasless send). Extensive experiments on 170 real-world contracts demonstrate that FunFuzz outperforms state-of-the-art fuzzers in terms of effectiveness and efficiency.
Over the course of the past several years, the swift growth and widespread use of cryptocurrencies have altered the face of the financial industry, presenting both opportunities and concerns. Alongside the expansion of cryptocurrency exchanges, there has been a rise in the number of fraudulent activities that take place within these exchanges, notably in networks such as Bitcoin. In this work, we report the findings of an exhaustive examination into the identification of fraudulent transactions within these exchanges, with a primary emphasis on Bitcoin. In order to accurately identify potentially fraudulent transactions, we plan to utilize a variety of Machine Learning (ML) techniques and ensemble techniques. One of these methods is the hard-voted ensemble model, which has been noted for its exceptional 99 percent success rate in previous implementations. In addition, we investigate the possibility of incorporating the hybrid SMOTE data balancing system and LSTM for the processing of time-series and edge-based transactions, which would further improve the efficiency of the model that we have presented. The findings of our research make a significant contribution to the development of strong and interpretable models, which are an essential component in the process of strengthening the integrity and security of the ecosystem of cryptocurrency.
The rapid advancement of blockchain technology has fueled the prosperity of the cryptocurrency market. Unfortunately, it has also facilitated certain criminal activities, particularly the increasing issue of phishing scams on blockchain platforms such as Ethereum. Consequently, developing an efficient phishing detection system is critical for ensuring the security and reliability of cryptocurrency transactions. However, existing methods have shortcomings in dealing with sample imbalance and effective feature extraction. To address these issues, this study proposes an Ethereum phishing scam detection method based on DA-HGNN (Data Augmentation Method and Hybrid Graph Neural Network Model), validated by real Ethereum datasets to prove its effectiveness. Initially, basic node features consisting of 11 attributes were designed. This study applied a sliding window sampling method based on node transactions for data augmentation. Since phishing nodes often initiate numerous transactions, the augmented samples tended to balance. Subsequently, the Temporal Features Extraction Module employed Conv1D (One-Dimensional Convolutional neural network) and GRU-MHA (GRU-Multi-Head Attention) models to uncover intrinsic relationships between features from the time sequences and to mine adequate local features, culminating in the extraction of temporal features. The GAE (Graph Autoencoder) concept was then leveraged, with SAGEConv (Graph SAGE Convolution) as the encoder. In the SAGEConv reconstruction module, by reconstructing the relationships between transaction graph nodes, the structural features of the nodes were learned, obtaining reconstructed node embedding representations. Ultimately, phishing fraud nodes were further identified by integrating temporal features, basic features, and embedding representations. A real Ethereum dataset was collected for evaluation, and the DA-HGNN model achieved an AUC-ROC (Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve) of 0.994, a Recall of 0.995, and an F1-score of 0.994, outperforming existing methods and baseline models.

As decentralized applications (DApps) proliferate, the increased complexity and usage of smart contracts have heightened their susceptibility to security incidents and financial losses. Although various vulnerability detection tools have been developed to mitigate these issues, they often suffer poor performance in detecting vulnerabilities, as they either rely on simplistic and general-purpose oracles that may be inadequate for vulnerability detection, or require user-specified oracles, which are labor-intensive to create. In this paper, we introduce SmartOracle, a dynamic invariant detector that automatically generates fine-grained invariants as application-specific oracles for vulnerability detection. From historical transactions, SmartOracle uses pattern-based detection and advanced inference to construct comprehensive properties, and mines multi-layer likely invariants to accommodate the complicated contract functionalities. After that, SmartOracle identifies smart contract vulnerabilities by hunting the violated invariants in new transactions. In the field of invariant detection, SmartOracle detects 50% more ERC20 invariants than existing dynamic invariant detection and achieves 96% precision rate. Furthermore, we build a dataset that contains vulnerable contracts from real-world security incidents. SmartOracle successfully detects 466 abnormal transactions with an acceptable precision rate 96%, involving 31 vulnerable contracts. The experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness in detecting smart contract vulnerabilities, especially those related to complicated contract functionalities.
In the quickly changing world of blockchain technology, it is critical to guarantee the security of the self-executing contracts, written in programming languages like Solidity called smart contracts. Not all security vulnerabilities in smart contracts will be found by human code reviews and security audits using traditional methods. Deep learning networks have become a promising answer to this problem. In this paper, we present the architecture of two models—using convolutional and recurrent neural networks—that are intended to effectively discover five vulnerabilities in smart contracts. To train and validate the models, we used a dataset that includes 106474 audited smart contracts taken from the public Ethereum blockchain. Instead of the source code that is typically used by most deep learning-based solutions, the models receive input in the form of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) bytecode. Across all five vulnerabilities, the Recurrent Neural Network model has an average micro F1-score of 0.93, whereas the Convolutional Neural Network achieves an average micro F1-score of 0.89. Through comparative research with various deep learning systems and static analysis tools, we have determined that EVM bytecode may be leveraged as a feature to detect vulnerabilities in smart contracts.
Recent advances in the field of large language models (LLMs), particularly the ChatGPT family, have given rise to a powerful and versatile machine interlocutor, packed with knowledge and challenging our understanding of learning. This interlocutor is a double-edged sword: it can be harnessed for a wide variety of beneficial tasks, but it can also be used to cause harm. This study explores the complicated interaction between ChatGPT and the growing problem of cryptocurrency fraud. Although ChatGPT is known for its adaptability and ethical considerations when used for harmful purposes, we highlight the deep connection that may exist between ChatGPT and fraudulent actions in the volatile cryptocurrency ecosystem. Based on our categorization of cryptocurrency frauds, we show how to influence outputs, bypass ethical terms, and achieve specific fraud goals by manipulating ChatGPT prompts. Furthermore, our findings emphasize the importance of realizing that ChatGPT could be a valuable instructor even for novice fraudsters, as well as understanding and safely deploying complex language models, particularly in the context of cryptocurrency frauds. Finally, our study underlines the importance of using LLMs responsibly and ethically in the digital currency sector, identifying potential risks and resolving ethical issues. It should be noted that our work is not intended to encourage and promote fraud, but rather to raise awareness of the risks of fraud associated with the use of ChatGPT.

Increasing global credit card usage has elevated it to a preferred payment method for daily transactions, underscoring its significance in global financial cybersecurity. This paper introduces a credit card fraud detection (CCFD) system that integrates federated learning (FL) with blockchain technology. The experiment employs FL to establish a global learning model on the cloud server, which transmits initial parameters to individual local learning models on fog nodes. With three banks (fog nodes) involved, each bank trains its learning model locally, ensuring data privacy, and subsequently sends back updated parameters to the global learning model. Through the integration of FL and blockchain, our system ensures privacy preservation and data protection. We utilize three machine learning and deep neural network learning algorithms, RF, CNN, and LSTM, alongside deep optimization techniques such as ADAM, SGD, and MSGD. The SMOTE oversampling technique is also employed to balance the dataset before model training. Our proposed framework has demonstrated efficiency and effectiveness in enhancing classification performance and prediction accuracy.
Supervising illicit activities on blockchain networks, such as money laundering, fraud, extortion, Ponzi schemes, and funding for terrorist organizations, presents significant challenges. Emerging machine learning methods for detecting abnormal transactions face hurdles due to high labeling costs, limited labeled data, and data imbalance. To address this, this paper proposes aMinimalSubstitution-basedLabelPropagation(MSLP) model to provide more labeled data to balance the graph data and complement the sample for anomalous transaction detection service in the blockchain networks. As far as we know, MSLP is the first method that utilizes the minimal substitution theory from the social computing field to find more abnormal transactions with under-labeling budget constraints. This approach has the potential to obtain more high-quality labeled data with minimal computational cost by utilizing a small amount of labeled graph data. Then, a label evaluation mechanism is proposed to decide the number of samples to be adopted for each class, ensuring the performance of downstream graph neural networks. Finally, extensive experiments were conducted and the proposed model improved the F1 score of illegal transaction node detection by 2.6% to 8.2%.
Criminals, using crypto wallets referred to as Deceptive Creator Wallets (DCWs), have orchestrated fraudulent activities by luring victims to transfer funds to fraud smart contracts. Since it is almost impossible to reverse the transactions or pinpoint the true identity of the criminals, the industry has turned to flagging such contracts as user warnings. However, current mitigation efforts focus on individual contracts, overlooking the DCWs behind the scenes. Consequently, our research found that this oversight allows fraud to thrive. To address this, we developed CoCo, an automated forensic analysis pipeline that processes a single fraud contract and generates evidence that the legal authorities need to mitigate the fraud. Applying CoCo to 157 confirmed fraud contracts, our research uncovered 1,283,198 associated contracts linked to 91 DCWs, responsible for 2,638,752 ETH ($2,089,504,682) in illicit profits. More alarmingly, CoCo traces the fraudulent activities back to September 2017. In response, we are closely collaborating with Etherscan and the FBI to combat the fraud identified in our study.

Language models (LMs) have demonstrated superior performance in detecting fraudulent activities on Blockchains. Nonetheless, the sheer volume of Blockchain data results in excessive memory and computational costs when training LMs from scratch, limiting their capabilities to large-scale applications. In this paper, we present ZipZap, a framework tailored to achieve both parameter and computational efficiency when training LMs on large-scale transaction data. First, with the frequency-aware compression, an LM can be compressed down to a mere 7.5% of its initial size with an imperceptible performance dip. This technique correlates the embedding dimension of an address with its occurrence frequency in the dataset, motivated by the observation that embeddings of low-frequency addresses are insufficiently trained and thus negating the need for a uniformly large dimension for knowledge representation. Second, ZipZap accelerates the speed through the asymmetric training paradigm: It performs transaction dropping and cross-layer parameter-sharing to expedite the pre-training process, while revert to the standard training paradigm for fine-tuning to strike a balance between efficiency and efficacy, motivated by the observation that the optimization goals of pre-training and fine-tuning are inconsistent. Evaluations on real-world, large-scale datasets demonstrate that ZipZap delivers notable parameter and computational efficiency improvements for training LMs. Our implementation is available at: https://github.com/git-disl/ZipZap.

Abstract - CrypticReport is a decentralized crime reporting system designed to make public reporting safer, more transparent, and free from identity risks. Citizens often avoid reporting crimes due to fear of exposure, harassment, or data misuse. CrypticReport overcomes these challenges by combining blockchain technology, decentralized IPFS storage, artificial intelligence or zero-knowledge–based authentication. Using Anon Aadhaar, users can verify their identity without revealing any personal information. AI models classify reports to block spam and detect duplicate submissions. All verified reports and evidence are stored in IPFS, and their hashes are recorded on the blockchain for tamper-proof storage. The platform uses a React interface for reporting, a Flask backend for AI processing, Ethereum smart contracts for record immutability, and the Waku protocol for real-time updates between citizens and authorities. Testing shows that the system improves trust, preserves anonymity, and ensures that no data can be altered once submitted. CrypticReport proves that decentralized systems can make crime reporting more secure, reliable, and citizen-friendly. Key Words: Blockchain, IPFS, Anonymous Reporting, AI Classification, Zero-Knowledge Proof, Decentralized Systems
