Researchers from Microsoft Research, Google DeepMind, and Columbia University have proposed the Agentic Risk Standard (ARS), a framework for managing financial risks in autonomous AI transactions. The protocol introduces escrow, underwriting, and collateralization to protect users from financial losses when AI agents execute tasks involving real assets. Separately, Bitcoin wallet provider Nunchuk released open-source tools to grant AI agents...

Entrepreneur Rodolfo Novak analyzed 66 research papers, concluding that quantum attacks on Bitcoin mining remain physically impractical. While Google researchers recently warned of a 20-fold reduction in resources needed to break wallet signatures, mining remains protected by the laws of thermodynamics. Research suggests that using Grover’s algorithm to outpace classical miners would require the energy output of a star. Bitcoin...

The Solana Foundation and Asymmetric Research launched STRIDE, a tiered security program for the ecosystem. Protocols with over $10 million TVL will receive 24/7 active threat monitoring, while those over $100 million get formal verification support. The Solana Incident Response Network (SIRN) was established to coordinate real-time crisis response among top security firms. The Solana Foundation has introduced a sweeping set of security...
