Bugs are rare, fortunately, but they happen, and in case of a netsplit or a fork you don't want your service to be accepting orders.

At the moment the only way is to stay vigilant for news and manually put your system in "safe mode" in case of emergency.

What I'm offering here is a service that keeps different versions of well connected bitcoind running to detect forks, plus a handful of sparingly connected nodes to detect network issues.
And, most important, a powerful API + WebHooks to put your system automatically in safe mode if a serious (you decide how serious) misalignment is detected.

There would be interest?
