AI is making crypto's security problem even worse, Ledger CTO warns


Crypto platforms — and investors — have long suffered from hacker attacks and exploits. Now, artificial intelligence (AI) is making that threat even worse.

That’s the view of Charles Guillemet, chief technology officer at crypto wallet provider Ledger, who said the economics of cybersecurity are breaking down as AI tools make it faster and cheaper to attack systems.

"Finding vulnerabilities and exploiting them becomes really, really easy," Guillemet told CoinDesk in an interview. "The cost is going down to zero."

His remarks come as crypto heists are in the headlines again. Just this week, Solana-based decentralized finance protocol Drift was exploited, with attackers draining $285 million worth of digital assets. It is one of the most severe exploits of the year so far. A week before that, an attack on yield protocol Resolv led to $25 million in losses.

Altogether, over $1.4 billion in assets were stolen or lost in crypto attacks over the course of the past year, according to data by DefiLlama.

From asymmetry to arms race

Security has long relied on an imbalance: it should be harder and more expensive to hack a system than the potential reward.

But AI is eroding that advantage. Tasks that once took skilled researchers months, like reverse engineering software or chaining exploits, can now be done in seconds with the right prompts.

For crypto, where code often controls large pools of funds, that shift raises the stakes.

"You need to be perfect," Guillemet warned teams developing blockchain protocols.

The problem is compounded by AI-generated code. As more developers rely on AI tools, vulnerabilities could spread faster.

“There is no 'make it secure' button,” he said. "We are going to produce a lot of code that will be insecure by design."

Raising the security bar

Why $60,000 decides whether Bitcoin’s recent strength cracks as nearly half the market slips into loss

Bitcoin's price is still trading far above the depths of past bear markets, and that distance is now making the current moment feel pretty disorienting. Under the surface, a huge share of the market is already back in pain.

On-chain data show that by early April, roughly 46% of Bitcoin's supply was being held at a loss, meaning that nearly half of the coins on the network were last bought at prices above the current market price.

Markets tend to get emotionally unstable when large numbers of people are trapped in losing positions, and the gap between what a price chart shows and what the holder base actually feels can be quite large.

That's why the $60,000 level stands out. The number itself is all nice and round and memorable, but its real importance is in how it affects behavior. A move back there would pull even more of the market underwater and turn a slow grind lower into a vertical drop, a direct test of whether holders keep waiting or finally start selling.

People who bought during the run-up have long since shifted their attention from the next all-time high to harder questions: whether they misread the market, whether they should cut risk, and whether this drawdown has further to run. That's the territory where bottoms tend to form, and where panic, once it finds a foothold, tends to spread.

On-chain investigator ZachXBT has published a new report, titled “The Circle USDC Files,” alleging more than $420 million in compliance failures tied to the company’s USDC stablecoin since 2022.

The analysis, released on social media platform X on Friday, chronicles multiple high‐profile decentralized finance (DeFi) exploits in which Circle allegedly failed to use its on‐chain freezing and blacklist capabilities to halt the flow of stolen funds.

Alleged Inaction By Circle

Circle’s token contract includes an explicit freeze/blacklist function, and the company’s terms of service reserve the right to restrict access for suspected illicit actors “in its sole discretion.”

Yet, ZachXBT’s report claims that in many widely reported thefts and hacks, the issuer either delayed action or did not freeze funds at all, allowing attackers to move large sums across blockchains and convert them into other assets.

The report opens with the April 1, 2026, Drift Protocol exploit, in which the attacker drained roughly $280 million. According to ZachXBT, the thief used Circle’s Cross‐Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) to bridge more than 232 million USDC from Solana (SOL) to Ethereum (ETH) in over 100 transactions.

The incident had ripple effects across the Solana ecosystem, indirectly impacting more than 10 DeFi projects. Despite the funds moving through Circle’s native bridge for hours, the report says no USDC was frozen during the laundering.

ZachXBT also details a January 25, 2026, attack on SwapNet that resulted in $16 million being stolen. Roughly $3 million in USDC remained in the exploiter’s address for two days. Both law enforcement and private‐sector analysts reportedly submitted temporary freeze requests to Circle for that address, but Circle did not act.

Nine‐Figure Losses In Crypto Hacks

Among several other cases cited in the report, ZachXBT also points to broader, long‐running patterns. In April 2024, he published a separate investigation into the Lazarus Group launder

Crypto Market Faces $1.5 Trillion Wipeout: Is the Bottom in Sight?
The cryptocurrency market has undergone a staggering contraction, shedding over $1.5 trillion in total value across the final quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026. This downturn, which wiped out approximately 45% of the broader market's valuation, was primarily spearheaded by Bitcoin, which accounted for nearly 60% of the total losses.
Unlike typical retail-driven panics characterized by "memecoin" sell-offs, analysts suggest this trend reflects a significant institutional retreat. The capital flight is further evidenced by gold’s recent 40% outperformance against Bitcoin (the XAU/BTC ratio), signaling a clear "risk-off" sentiment among major global investors who are prioritizing capital preservation over speculative growth.
Future Outlook and Predictions
Currently, Bitcoin is in a period of sideways consolidation, fluctuating within a narrow band between $65,000 and $69,000. While the market remains indecisive, professional outlooks hinge on two key factors: macro-economic stability and BTC dominance.
If geopolitical tensions ease and oil prices stabilize, this consolidation may serve as a foundation for a gradual recovery. However, if macroeconomic conditions deteriorate, experts predict further downside pressure, with altcoins likely to bear the brunt of the volatility. Investors are advised to watch the gold-to-Bitcoin ratio as a leading indicator of returning risk appetite.

SHIB price dips slightly as cautious sentiment grips broader crypto market

Shiba Inu’s layer-2 network has entered a reset phase after a sudden drop in visible activity, as recent data shows transactions falling sharply within a single day, reflecting temporary disruption linked to ongoing system upgrades and backend restructuring. Over the past 24 hours, Shibarium recorded only 557 transactions, marking a significant decline from the 10,940 transactions registered on March 26, representing a drop of about 94% that has quickly drawn attention across the broader crypto market.


However, this sharp decline does not indicate a collapse in network usage, as most of the recorded transactions now consist of automated system-level processes rather than actual user-driven transfers across wallets. Additionally, many recent transactions carry the label “Value 0 BONE,” which signals that these are internal operations designed to support the upgraded infrastructure rather than transactions involving token movement between participants.
