The Ethereum Foundation exposed 100 Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK)‐linked IT workers embedded across roughly 53 crypto projects.

Ethereum Foundation Levels Up Its Security With A Detective Program
The North Korean secret crypto-agents don’t rest, so the Ethereum Foundation decided it was time they put on the detective’s hat to track them before they too fell victims to them, just as Drift Protocol was at the beginning of the month. And so, yesterday afternoon the Foundation announced on an official blog post the starking results yielded by the ETH Rangers Program (and yes, everything related to North Korean hackers inevitably sounds straight out of an RPG or action movie).

The ETH Rangers Program has wrapped up and the results speak for themselves: $5.8M+ recovered, 785+ vulnerabilities reported, 100+ DPRK operatives identified, and so much more.

A decentralized defence for a decentralized network.

According to the blog post, the Ethereum Foundation teamed up with Secureum, The Red Guild, and Security Alliance (SEAL) in late 2024 to roll out said program. The initiative offered stipends to people carrying out public‐goods security work across the Ethereum ecosystem.

The program’s mission consisted in backing independent security initiatives that strengthen Ethereum’s overall robustness, while spotlighting and rewarding contributors with a proven history of delivering high‐impact security work for the broader network.

After six months, the results of the program speak for itself.

XRP Price Signals Bullish for the First Time in Three Months – Will It Break $1.55 Next?

XRP has fallen 1.09% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading near $1.43, lagging behind Bitcoin's gains. This decline appears to be a technical pullback after recent overbought conditions, but the overall pattern is shifting. Notably, a key indicator has turned bullish for the first time in months, suggesting a potential change in underlying market momentum.

Meanwhile, open interest data presents a different trend. Open interest continues to climb, indicating active trading, while funding rates fluctuate, suggesting unstable confidence on both sides. This creates a clear contradiction: is XRP building momentum to break through $1.55, or is it accumulating liquidity before another potential setback?

Derivatives data suggests that a clear trading setup is currently lacking due to the continued rise in open interest and fluctuating funding rates. XRP has fallen 1.09% in the past 24 hours and is trading near $1.43, lagging behind Bitcoin's gains. This decline appears to be a technical correction following recent overbought conditions, but the overall pattern is shifting.

The Lightning Network isn’t ‘helplessly broken’


A post from Udi Wertheimer a few weeks ago made headlines across crypto media with a stark claim: the Lightning Network is "helplessly broken" in a post-quantum world, and its developers can do nothing about it. The headline traveled fast. For businesses that have built real payment infrastructure on Lightning or are evaluating it, the implications were unsettling.

It deserves a measured response.

Wertheimer is a respected Bitcoin developer, and his underlying concern is legitimate: quantum computers, if they ever become sufficiently powerful, pose a real long-term challenge to the cryptographic systems on which Bitcoin and Lightning depend. That part is true, and the Bitcoin development community is already working on it seriously. But the framing of Lightning as "helplessly broken" obscures more than it reveals, and businesses making infrastructure decisions deserve a clearer picture.

What Wertheimer got right

Lightning channels require participants to share public keys with their counterparty when opening a payment channel. In a world where cryptographically relevant quantum computers (CRQCs) exist, an attacker who obtains those public keys could theoretically use Shor's algorithm to derive the corresponding private key, and from there, steal funds.

This is a real structural property of how Lightning works. What the headline leaves out

The threat is far more specific and far more conditional than "your Lightning balance can be stolen."

First, the channels themselves are protected by a hash while they are open. Funding transactions use P2WSH (Pay-to-Witness-Script-Hash), meaning the raw public keys inside the 2-of-2 multisig arrangement are hidden onchain for as long as the channel remains open. Lightning payments are also hash-based, routed through HTLCs (Hashed Time-Lock Contracts), which r

#South Korea's Unification Ministry stated Friday it has no knowledge of any formal U.S. protest or intelligence-sharing restrictions, following media reports suggesting Washington expressed frustration over a cabinet minister's public disclosure of a previously unconfirmed North Korean nuclear facility.The controversy stems from remarks made by Unification Minister Chung Dong-young during a parliamentary hearing on March 6, where he identified a uranium enrichment facility in Kusong, North Korea — a site not previously confirmed publicly — alongside the already-known locations of Yongbyon and Kangson. South Korean officials say Chung's statements were drawn from publicly available information, including international research publications, and that the United States had accepted this explanation after the South Korean ministry addressed an inquiry from the U.S. Embassy in Seoul.South Korean newspaper Dong-A Ilbo reported that Washington conveyed its displeasure to Seoul over the disclosure, with sources in both countries indicating the U.S. signaled it might partially limit North Korea-related intelligence sharing. According to the report, Chung's remarks were a triggering factor amid wider accumulated tensions between the two allies over foreign policy and security disagreements.When asked directly whether intelligence sharing had been restricted, a U.S. State Department spokesperson declined to comment, citing standard protocol on intelligence matters. The U.S. Embassy in Seoul also offered no immediate response.Adding another layer to the dispute, Chung attributed part of his Kusong remarks to statements made by International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Grossi. However, a review of the official IAEA transcript shows Grossi referenced only Yongbyon and Kangson — with no mention of Kusong — raising further questions about the source of the minister's claims.South Korea maintains that any U.S. concerns were not directly tied to the minister's comme

Технический анализ

Краткосрочный тренд: Нейтральный или слегка восходящий

Сопротивление: 0,00000034

Поддержка: 0,00000032

Прорыв выше уровня сопротивления может привести к дальнейшему росту цены.

Факторы риска

Очень высокое предложение (триллионы), поэтому потенциал роста может быть ограничен.

Рост может быть медленным без ажиотажа/полезности.

Мое честное мнение

BTT — это токен с высоким риском и низкой ценой. Хотя цена может вырасти, если альткоины покажут сильную динамику, в долгосрочной перспективе ключевым фактором является полезность.

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

Bitcoin’s security relies on elliptic curve cryptography, a one-way mathematical function that makes deriving a private key from a public key effectively impossible for traditional computers.

Shor’s algorithm allows a sufficiently powerful quantum computer to efficiently reverse this one-way function, turning a bitcoin public key into its corresponding private key and enabling theft.



A recent Google-led paper outlines a realistic attack in which a future quantum computer could, within about nine minutes, derive a private key from an exposed public key and potentially front-run or drain vulnerable bitcoin wallets.

I don't want to flex, but this will sound exactly like that to those who don't know my "friends" in Dubai.

Not long ago I was told that the Strait of Hormuz would be opened. I had the info before it went public. Didn't think twice - opened a small long on $BTC. You can see the result on screen + the entry time.

I didn't doubt the info because it came from the right people.

It wasn't told to me so I could trade it. Just came up in a conversation about the situation around UAE.
