Peter Schiff Declares Danger of AI for Bitcoin

Economist Peter Schiff has warned that artificial intelligence (AI) poses a threat to Bitcoin. He dismissed the view held by some Bitcoin proponents that the cryptocurrency could benefit from the AI investment boom and attract capital from investors seeking exposure to AI. According to Schiff, AI and Bitcoin are instead in direct competition for speculative capital, as well as for electricity and data center infrastructure. He further argued that more advanced AI models could potentially discover vulnerabilities in Bitcoin's code, cryptography, wallets, and network that are currently unknown to humans. Schiff considers this a significant risk, as Bitcoin's security and its capped supply rely on the flawless operation of its software and cryptographic mechanisms. This warning contrasts with the view of investors like BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes, who has predicted that a crash of the AI bubble in the stock market will be a key driver pushing Bitcoin's price to $1 million.

Microsoft Announces Emergence of New Viral Threat! It Surprisingly Uses Altcoin Network

Microsoft has identified a new cyberattack method where threat actors use smart contracts on the BNB Smart Chain blockchain to disseminate malware instructions, a technique dubbed "EtherHiding." Instead of hosting malicious payloads on traditional command-and-control servers, attackers embed code within blockchain smart contracts. They compromise legitimate websites to display fake CAPTCHA pages. These pages trick users into pressing Windows+R, pasting a pre-loaded malicious command from their clipboard via Ctrl+V, and pressing Enter, thereby unknowingly executing attacker-prepared commands on their own systems. This method is reportedly prevalent in social engineering campaigns known as ClickFix and TerminalFix, which target thousands of corporate and personal devices globally each day. Leveraging blockchain infrastructure allows attackers to update malicious instructions via a decentralized, public network, making detection and complete takedown of the attack infrastructure more challenging.

A Serious Threat is Looming for Bitcoin (BTC) and Cryptocurrencies: They Could Be the First Target!

The rapid advancement of quantum computing poses a serious threat not only to cryptocurrencies but to the entire encryption system, including banking. However, experts warn that the cryptocurrency market might be the first sector to suffer from this transformation. As predictions of a 'Q-Day' approach, the slow governance processes of cryptocurrencies, rather than their cryptography, could become the biggest obstacle to defending against quantum attacks. Quantum Xchange CEO Eddy Zervigon has compared cryptocurrencies to "canaries in the coal mine," stating that the first successful quantum-powered cyberattack is likely to target decentralized blockchain networks. While a cryptographically relevant quantum computer capable of breaking the elliptic curve cryptography underlying Bitcoin's signatures and banking security does not yet exist, work by giants like Microsoft, IBM, and Google suggests the threat is nearer than previously thought. The industry consensus estimates such a computer could emerge around 2029. Supporting this view, recent Google research indicates the number of physical qubits needed to break the cryptographic systems protecting Bitcoin and Ethereum has decreased by about 20 times compared to prior estimates, highlighting the accelerated danger. Zervigon concludes that Bitcoin's greatest risk lies not in its current cryptographic system, but in the slow pace of implementing major network upgrades.

Expert Calls Bitcoin a 'Canary in the Coal Mine' for Quantum Threat

A Bitcoin expert, Quantum Xchange CEO Eddy Zervigon, has called Bitcoin the "canary in the coal mine" for the threat posed by quantum computing. He warns that cryptocurrencies and blockchain protocols will likely be the first to face practical attacks from quantum computers capable of breaking the elliptic-curve cryptography securing Bitcoin signatures and traditional banking. Zervigon notes that major tech companies like Microsoft and IBM are targeting commercially and cryptographically significant quantum systems by around 2029. Recent research from Google has reduced the estimated quantum computing power required to attack Bitcoin, suggesting the threat is closer than previously thought. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Energy's goal to build a powerful quantum computer within three years and new federal mandates to adopt post-quantum cryptography are increasing the urgency. A key vulnerability for Bitcoin, according to a Deutsche Digital Assets report, is not the cryptography itself but the slow, decentralized decision-making process for protocol upgrades. This contrasts with traditional financial institutions, which can act swiftly. Academic research confirms that achieving the necessary 90% consensus among miners for a post-quantum upgrade would be challenging, as past significant changes like SegWit in 2017 have led to contentious hard forks.

Quantum Computers Haven't Arrived Yet, but Satoshi's 1.1 Million Bitcoin Pose the First Problem

A zero-knowledge proof tool can help modern Bitcoin wallets migrate assets before quantum attacks in milliseconds. However, approximately 1.1 million bitcoins mined by Satoshi Nakamoto before 2012 are fundamentally unprotected by such solutions, as they reside in older P2PK addresses lacking the hierarchical structure required for this cryptographic rescue. This exposes a critical divide: post-2012 HD wallets can potentially "upgrade" signatures using tools like Project Eleven's, while early coins are cryptographically isolated. The community faces a political, not technical, dilemma with four contentious options: 1) Let quantum attackers seize the coins, risking market instability; 2) Hard fork to freeze vulnerable addresses, seen as violating property rights; 3) Implement extreme spending limits to slow any attack; 4) Redistribute "orphaned" coins, breaking immutability. Each solution threatens a core Bitcoin tenet. The market is already pricing in this governance risk, as evidenced by institutional divestment citing uncertainty. The true crisis isn't the arrival of quantum computing, but the community's inability to reconcile its foundational principles with an existential technological shift.

‘Threat not diminished’: Why is India’s RBI ramping up crypto warnings?

India's Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has reiterated strong opposition to cryptocurrency legalization, warning a parliamentary committee that virtual digital assets (VDAs) like Bitcoin pose serious risks to financial stability and can facilitate illegal activities. The RBI argues that crypto operates outside the traditional banking system and is difficult to regulate, especially with many service providers based overseas. In contrast, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) advocates for a comprehensive regulatory framework rather than a ban, proposing to develop accounting and compliance standards for VDAs. This debate occurs as India taxes crypto transactions without granting them legal status, with the 2026 budget proposing stricter compliance rules. The warnings come amid data showing a slowdown in retail crypto trading and a record number of security breaches in the first half of 2026, although total theft losses decreased. Industry experts note the underlying threats have become more sophisticated, contributing to a challenging year for crypto marked by regulatory uncertainty and reduced retail participation.

Top Audit Guru Alerts: All DeFi is Unsafe, Withdraw Now!

Leading DeFi security auditor and OpenZeppelin founder Manuel Aráoz has issued a stark warning, declaring all DeFi protocols unsafe and advising the withdrawal of funds, even from established platforms like Aave and MakerDAO. This warning stems from the rapidly growing threat posed by AI-powered hacking tools. Aráoz highlights that AI agents can now identify and exploit smart contract vulnerabilities in minutes, a task that previously took expert teams weeks. This creates a critical asymmetry: defenders must patch every flaw, while attackers need only find one. Recent months have seen a surge in high-profile exploits, with billions lost in April and May alone across protocols like Drift Protocol, Kelp DAO, and THORChain. The acceleration is attributed to AI's ability to perform rapid code scanning, generate automated attack scripts, and even orchestrate social engineering and infrastructure attacks faster than human defenders can respond. The article cites Anthropic's powerful new AI model, Mythos, which demonstrated such proficiency in finding zero-day vulnerabilities that its public release was delayed over security concerns. This evolution fundamentally disrupts DeFi's risk-reward calculus. With yields on reliable protocols falling to single digits, users now face the potential of 100% capital loss for minimal returns. Aráoz's conclusion is that for most users, withdrawing funds to secure wallets is the most rational risk-management choice in the current landscape.

Ethereum Targets North Korea’s Secret Workforce — Are Your Favorite DeFi Protocols Compromised?

The Ethereum Foundation's ETH Rangers Program, a security initiative launched in late 2024, has identified approximately 100 North Korean (DPRK) IT operatives who had infiltrated around 53 different crypto projects using fake identities. The program, a collaboration with security groups like Secureum and SEAL, also recovered or froze over $5.8 million in funds and reported more than 785 vulnerabilities. A key project within the initiative, Ketman, focused specifically on uncovering these DPRK agents, published detailed reports, and developed open-source tools for detecting suspicious activity. This effort highlights the ongoing threat of state-sponsored North Korean hacking groups within the crypto ecosystem and the industry's increasing focus on robust security measures and transparent hiring practices to mitigate risks.

From Theory to Countdown: Google Sounds the Blockchain Quantum Resistance Alarm with Zero-Knowledge Proofs

An article discusses the significant threat quantum computing poses to blockchain and classical encryption systems, triggered by Google's recent research. By optimizing Shor's algorithm, Google reduced the logical qubits required to break 256-bit elliptic curve encryption from around 6,000 to just 1,200—slashing computational costs by 20 times. This advancement sets a potential countdown, with Google estimating 2029 as the deadline for upgrading to quantum-resistant cryptography. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum face severe risks. About 25-35% of Bitcoin addresses have exposed public keys, making them vulnerable to attacks, especially during transaction processing. Ethereum’s design exposes public keys upon first use, jeopardizing its entire network if signatures aren’t updated. Historical blockchain data remains permanently available for future quantum attacks. The solution lies in adopting post-quantum cryptography (PQC). Ethereum is already implementing account abstraction and PQC-based signatures, leveraging its upgradeable architecture. Bitcoin is considering BIP-360 to introduce quantum-resistant algorithms like FALCON or CRYSTALS-Dilithium, though consensus may delay action. Notably, Google used zero-knowledge proofs to disclose this threat responsibly, aiming to prevent panic. Collaboration with Ethereum Foundation researchers suggests抗量子 (quantum resistance) could become a major narrative, aligning with crypto’s cryptographic roots.
