Fordefi

Fordefi is an institutional MPC (multi-party computation) wallet and digital-asset security platform for DeFi, trading, and on-chain payments. Its developer API lets teams programmatically create vaults across 10+ blockchain families (EVM, Bitcoin, Solana, Cosmos and more), manage addresses and assets, and build, approve, sign, and broadcast transactions under a policy engine with built-in AML screening and audit logging. Authentication combines a Bearer JWT access token with ECDSA (NIST P-256) request signing by a registered API Signer; state-changing calls support idempotency and a signed webhook event surface for real-time monitoring. Fordefi is SOC 2 Type II certified. This profile was enriched by the API Evangelist pipeline from Fordefi's public OpenAPI and developer documentation.

Fordefi publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Cryptocurrency, Digital Assets, and Wallet.

The Fordefi catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Fordefi’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, signup flow, changelog, authentication, and 24 more developer resources.
