- Founded in 2018 by KKR alum Ben Forman, ParaFi has around $1 billion in assets under management.
- ParaFi declined to comment about the new funds when contacted by CoinDesk.
- The latest moves come two months after KKR & Co. made its first blockchain-related investment with a stake in ParaFi’s flagship fund, which focuses on decentralized finance markets.

Specialized AI detects 92% of real-world DeFi exploits
New research claims specialized AI dramatically outperforms general-purpose models at detecting exploited DeFi vulnerabilities.
What to know:
- A purpose-built AI security agent detected vulnerabilities in 92% of 90 exploited DeFi contracts ($96.8 million in exploit value), compared with 34% and $7.5 million for a baseline GPT-5.1-based coding agent running on the same underlying model.
- The gap came from domain-specific security methodology layered on top of the model, not differences in core AI capability, according to the report.
- The findings come as prior research from Anthropic and OpenAI shows AI agents can execute end-to-end smart contract exploits at low cost, accelerating concerns that offensive AI capabilities are scaling faster than defensive adoption.
