🪙 An Ethereum ICO participant woke up after 10 years of inactivity and transferred 40 000 ETH to a new wallet.

In 2014, he purchased these coins for just $12 400 — today they’re worth about $119 500 000.

🤖 Anthropic has begun using its LLMs to identify vulnerabilities in blockchain smart contracts — and the models have already discovered an exploit that could cause roughly $4.6 million in losses.

Analysts also note that AI agents now show significant potential for use in hacking attacks within the crypto industry. In simulations of real smart-contract breaches from 2020–2025, Claude Opus 4.5, Sonnet 4.5, and GPT-5 demonstrated high effectiveness.

🪙 The Ethereum ecosystem is testing a new privacy protocol, Zero Knowledge Secret Santa (ZKSS), which uses cryptography to provide full anonymity for exchanging “gifts.”

It hides both the sender and the recipient of each transaction and could serve as a foundation for anonymous voting, private airdrops, and secure DAO governance systems.

In essence, ZKSS creates a mechanism in which all participants remain invisible to one another while the distribution process stays fair and verifiable.

🍿 An illusionist from Missouri implanted an RFID chip under his skin for magic tricks, then later reprogrammed it to store a Bitcoin address — only to forget the password.

The chip in his hand still works, but he can’t access it: it’s either weeks of password-cracking with specialized software or a surgeon extracting the “wallet” by hand.

The feature is designed to give users an additional protection guarantee, significantly reducing the risk of losses from malicious smart contracts or hidden threats.
