Blockchain has gradually evolved into a critical infrastructure that supports the digital economy. However, its inherent characteristics such as anonymity, cross-chain interoperability, and multi-party participation have led to frequent security incidents, including fraud, money laundering, and cyberattacks, which pose serious threats to the stability and compliance of the blockchain ecosystem. Although existing analytical tools and methods have made notable progress in blockchain service security, they suffer from limited generalizability, insufficient reasoning capabilities, and poor adaptability to the evolution of complex business logic. The rapid development of generative Large Language Model (LLM) has significantly reshaped the service computing paradigm. With their strong capabilities in natural language understanding, knowledge reasoning, and multimodal integration, LLM provide new perspectives and technical pathways for research on blockchain service security. This paper systematically reviews the progress of LLM applications in three major areas: pre-event smart contract auditing, in-event anomaly detection, and post-event cross-chain behavior correlation. Further, it summarizes their advantages and limitations and highlights representative practices of LLM-enabled blockchain security. Finally, open research challenges and future directions are discussed, aiming to provide insights for building a trustworthy, interpretable, and efficient framework for blockchain service computing and governance.
