Odaily News: According to Bitcoin News monitoring, Bitcoin News released a podcast in which former Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès and Foundation CEO Zach Herbert discussed the largest supply chain attack in crypto industry history. Mark Karpelès stated that he discovered the spy implant 3 weeks before the funds were stolen and contacted Ledger, but received no response. The implant had a built-in hidden cellular modem that could directly read the seed phrase on the screen and passed Ledger's own checks; even setting a passphrase could not prevent the seed phrase from being stolen. Mark Karpelès said that with $5 million, he could create an implant that would only be detectable through X-ray. The episode also discussed the hardware wallet reseller model, the Malaysian reseller behind the attack, on-chain tracking of stolen crypto assets, the spread of the attack to Europe, why Trezor was not targeted, hardware wallet security, and multi-party computation solutions. The episode timeline shows that the amount stolen from hardware wallets reached $100 million, with $86 million transferred out within 24 hours.

According to Newsfile, Zhibao Technology (NASDAQ: ZBAO) has signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement with multi-asset liquid restaking protocol Bedrock to jointly explore the following three areas: 1. On-chain stock tokenization: Exploring the native issuance of its SEC-registered Class A common shares on public blockchains at the transfer agent level as real-world asset (RWA) equity, while retaining full voting rights, dividend rights, and shareholder privileges; 2. Bitcoin treasury yield generation: Evaluating the partial deployment of the company's 2,380 BTC holdings into Bedrock's liquid restaking infrastructure (uniBTC), integrated with a Chainlink-compatible proof of reserves mechanism; 3. DeFi compliance integration: Developing a KYC/AML/sanctions screening framework to enable tokenized shares to interact with issuer-approved decentralized applications, achieving continuous 7×24-hour settlement. Additionally, Zhibao plans to leverage its AI-driven insurtech platform and reinsurance subsidiary to provide embedded insurance solutions for custody, smart contract, and oracle risks within the liquid restaking ecosystem. The framework agreement is currently non-binding, with a formal contract expected to be executed within the next 12 months. Final implementation remains contingent upon meeting compliance requirements from the US SEC, Nasdaq, and relevant Chinese regulatory authorities.

Odaily reports, according to monitoring by Bitcoin News, @0xJohannes stated that a Ledger hardware wallet purchased from an official European reseller several weeks ago was found to contain an unauthorized spy implant device. Suspicious wiring not present in genuine Ledger hardware was discovered inside the device, indicating it may have been physically tampered with before being sold. The implant appears to be an older version, as newer versions typically conceal the components behind the screen. Funds in the affected device have not been stolen thus far. Suspected cases have currently been reported in Asia, South America, and Europe. If the original secure element remains intact, Ledger's Genuine Check software cannot detect unauthorized physical modifications.
Odaily News: Crypto analyst Darkfost posted that following the security incident involving Ledger reseller CryptoBilis, other potentially related reseller names have emerged in community discussions, including some Lazada merchants.Darkfost stated that the full scope of the incident remains difficult to confirm. Although Ledger has confirmed a connection to the CryptoBilis incident, it is still unclear whether CryptoBilis is the only affected reseller. He compiled a list of potentially risky Ledger resellers, noting that due to their regional proximity, there is a possibility that their supply chains were compromised simultaneously. However, Darkfost emphasized that these assessments are speculative and have not yet been confirmed.Darkfost advised that if users have purchased Ledger devices from the relevant resellers within the past 6 months, they may consider moving their assets to other secure devices before the investigation concludes. He also noted that users can refer to a guide published by security researcher MagicalTux to check their Ledger devices for signs of tampering.

Ethereum contributor Francesco Risitano (@frisitano) submitted the EIP-8440 (Execution Chain Proof) draft proposal on October 9. The proposal leverages a recursive zero-knowledge proof mechanism to prove the validity of all execution payloads from the tip beacon block back to the genesis beacon block, binding them to the beacon chain. Nodes can establish complete execution validity from a weak subjectivity checkpoint to the latest block header using a single proof, enabling constant-time chain synchronization.
Odaily News: Crypto information platform Decrypt has launched Decrypt Money Accounts on Solana. Account balances are denominated in USDT and can be used across products including Earn, Swaps, Predictions, and Perps. The platform covers gas and rent fees through fee-payer co-signing, so users do not need to hold SOL or handle network fees.The account uses a self-custody model. Decrypt does not hold users' private keys and cannot execute transactions on their behalf. Users can deposit funds through multiple payment methods. A private key export feature is expected to be available shortly, after which accounts can be connected to any Solana wallet software.Cross-chain operations are handled at the platform's underlying layer. For example, Myriad Predictions markets settle on BNB Chain, yet users can still trade using the same Solana USDT balance without bridging or switching networks. Existing Myriad Wallet users can use the service directly without migration.Decrypt Money Accounts will serve as the underlying channel for The Information Exchange, connecting Decrypt, Myriad, and the upcoming MYR. The platform will subsequently expand prediction markets into instruments such as spot, perpetual futures, and structured event products. (Decrypt)
