News linked to both this project and an event.
21Shares has released an analysis report on the Binance hack, stating that on October 29, Binance suffered an attack of approximately $6.3 billion, of which about $3 billion in stolen assets have now been frozen, and Binance has committed to bearing all losses. Within 24 hours after the incident, Bitcoin fell slightly more than 2%, significantly lower than the roughly 26% decline Bitcoin experienced after the FTX incident in November 2022. 221Shares emphasized that this incident was a security breach affecting Binance as a single company, and that the Bitcoin network itself was not attacked. Binance stated that it will cover all losses through the SAFU fund and corporate funds. Calculated at a Bitcoin price of approximately $78,509, the 15,000 BTC held by the SAFU fund is worth about $1.18 billion, which can cover about 36% of the losses on unfrozen assets, with the remaining portion to be borne by corporate funds. The report also mentioned that Chainalysis has high confidence that the attack is linked to North Korea, but Binance and government agencies have not yet officially confirmed the attribution.In addition, 21Shares stated that the assets of its physically backed ETPs and ETFs are held in cold storage by third-party custodians such as BitGo, Coinbase Custody, Anchorage Digital, and Zodia Custody, and are not kept in exchange accounts. Therefore, they were not affected by this incident, and all of the company's products are trading normally.
据 Cointelegraph 报道，比特币政策研究所（BPI）联合 Anchorage Digital、BitGo、Bitwise、Blockstream、Kraken、Ledger、MARA、Trezor 等多家加密机构，发布公开信敦促各大前沿 AI 实验室为比特币及开源软件开发者建立或扩展可信访问计划。 信中指出，Bitcoin Core 等开源维护者目前缺乏对 AI 实验室网络安全程序的访问渠道，被迫依赖能力较弱的开源模型，而比特币网络当前保护着逾 1 万亿美元资产，任何开源基础设施漏洞均可能危及用户毕生积蓄。BPI 同时披露，已收到多份报告显示包括潜在境外势力在内的复杂攻击者正借助先进 AI 能力持续发动攻击。
