Safety

At Exitpad, safety is paramount. We prioritize robust security measures that safeguard your deals while upholding decentralization, privacy, and user control. From trustless escrow to encrypted communications, every layer is designed to minimize risks in Web3 M&A without compromising speed or accessibility.

Trustless Escrow with Safe

Exitpad employs Safe (safe.global)—the industry-leading multisig wallet protocol that secures over $100 billion in assets across the ecosystem—for all escrow needs. Every deal deploys a 2-of-3 multisig Safe (with the buyer, seller, and Exitpad as signers) on the asset's native chain or your preferred network. Funds and assets remain fully under buyer and seller control: Exitpad deploys the Safe (covering gas fees) but only signs in disputes for neutral mediation, ensuring no unilateral access and eliminating central points of failure. This setup prevents scams, enforces agreed terms, and enables seamless releases once conditions are met.

Why Safe is Rock-Solid

Safe's smart contracts have undergone rigorous audits by top firms like Trail of Bits and PeckShield, and are battle-tested on over 100 EVM-compatible chains, including Ethereum (our current primary), Polygon, Arbitrum, BNB Chain, Optimism, Avalanche, and more (with Exitpad's full multi-chain rollout incoming). As an open-source protocol backed by a vibrant community, it offers advanced features like account abstraction, social recovery, and batch transactions for efficiency. Safe maintains an impeccable protocol-level security record with zero exploits since 2018, even through 2025's high-profile incidents like the Bybit breach (caused by blind signing, not protocol flaws). To counter such risks, Exitpad integrates user-friendly safeguards: clear txn previews, admin-guided reviews, and education on avoiding blind signatures. Trusted by DAOs, institutions, and billions in TVL, Safe delivers unmatched reliability for high-stakes deals.

Exitpad's Encrypted Platforms

To protect sensitive information, all user data, private chats, listings, negotiations, and asset submissions on Exitpad are secured with end-to-end encryption using industry-leading protocols.

No KYC at Any Stage | Decentralized Ethos:

True to Web3 principles, Exitpad requires no KYC for signup, listings, negotiations, or deals. Connect a Web3 wallet (via WalletConnect for MetaMask, Safe, etc.) to participate globally and frictionlessly. Our decentralized core powers on-chain elements like escrow through gold-standard protocols, while hybrid usability features—like email registration for notifications and optional admin chats for guidance or mediation—enhance the experience without centralization. For discretion, private listings let sellers anonymize projects, revealing verified assets only to qualified buyers via DMs. This empowers founders and investors to innovate securely, anywhere, anytime.
