According to CoinDesk, while quantum computers cannot disrupt the Bitcoin mining mechanism or the blockchain ledger, they may potentially crack the elliptic curve encryption system that protects wallet ownership through Shor's algorithm. Currently, about 6.9 million BTC (approximately one-third of the total supply) face potential risks due to public keys being visible on-chain, including around 1 million early holdings by Satoshi Nakamoto; transactions generated after the Taproot upgrade in 2021 are also affected due to public key exposure.Ethereum has established a formal quantum resistance migration plan since 2018, with 4 full-time teams and over 10 independent development groups, and has launched a dedicated progress website at pq.ethereum.org. In contrast, Bitcoin currently lacks a unified response roadmap, and the existing BIP-360 proposal and BitMEX Research detection scheme have not received widespread support from core developers. Notable Bitcoin advocate Nic Carter pointed out that Bitcoin's response is "the worst," while Blockstream CEO Adam Back believes that current quantum systems are still in the laboratory stage, but he also agrees that optional upgrade solutions should be deployed in advance.Analysts point out that Bitcoin's anti-centralization governance culture makes coordinating large-scale security upgrades extremely difficult, and how to handle historical legacy issues such as Satoshi Nakamoto's holdings is particularly challenging. A related paper from Google warns that once quantum attacks become a reality, the window for response may have already closed.

Coinbase stated that it is optimizing the rule creation process in its anti-fraud system by integrating machine learning models with a rules engine, achieving more efficient risk management. It also proposed a dual-track strategy of "models responsible for long-term defense, rules responsible for rapid response," and built a unified framework to create a feedback loop between the two: rules are used to capture new types of fraud and train the model in reverse, thereby continuously enhancing overall defense capabilities.In terms of specific optimizations, Coinbase has transformed the previously manual rule creation process into a data-driven and automated recommendation system by restructuring data, automating schema evolution, and introducing notebook-based analytical tools, significantly improving efficiency. Among these improvements, the performance of rule backtesting has increased by more than 10 times, and the overall response time has been reduced from several days to a few hours. Additionally, the new system uses machine learning to recommend parameters, helping to reduce false positive rates while combating fraud and minimizing the impact on normal users. Coinbase indicated that the next step will be to advance event-driven automatic rule generation and explore the "one-click conversion" of efficient rules into model features, further moving towards an automated risk management system.

According to Bloomberg, 39 signatories, including Nasdaq, Stuttgart Stock Exchange Group, and various financial technology associations, are calling on the European Commission and the European Parliament to treat the distributed ledger technology pilot system as an independent legislative fast track and to separate it from the EU market integration and supervision scheme.The signatories stated that if the overall negotiation process takes too long, Europe may fall behind the United States in DLT applications, and they demand the removal of asset class restrictions, an increase in the total trading volume cap to €150 billion, and the elimination of license time limits. The letter also mentioned that the United States has established a stablecoin regulatory framework through the Genius Act and is rapidly establishing a leading position in the tokenized asset field.The European Commission is currently promoting a rapid resolution of the entire regulatory scheme and views it as a key part of the Capital Markets Union plan. Financial Services Commissioner Maria Luis Albuquerque has previously called for all legislative proposals to be passed in sync.

DefiLlama founder 0xngmi posted on the X platform stating that the current claims about Aave's TVL being overestimated due to circular borrowing are inaccurate.He explained that in the TVL statistics, borrowed assets are excluded, so circular borrowing does not inflate the total locked value. For example, deposited assets count towards TVL, while the corresponding borrowed portion is offset. He also added that DefiLlama had previously removed duplicate calculations caused by collateral loops related to Ethena, believing that the related doubts are unfounded.

According to The Block, the Ethereum Name Service (ENS) gateway eth.limo experienced a DNS hijacking attack last Friday evening. The project released a post-incident analysis report on Saturday, tracing the attack back to a social engineering attack against the domain registrar EasyDNS.eth.limo stated that DNSSEC validation rejected the attackers' domain server changes, and no users have been found to be actually affected. In response to the recent breaches at the DNS level affecting crypto frontends, eth.limo plans to migrate to EasyDNS's stricter security services, which no longer support account recovery features.EasyDNS CEO Mark Jeftovic has publicly acknowledged the vulnerability, stating that this is the first successful social engineering attack against customers in its 28-year history.

DefiLlama founder 0xngmi has outlined three possible courses of action that KelpDAO may take following the rsETH hacking incident. Each of the three paths has significant flaws, and the final decision will test KelpDAO's credibility and Aave's risk tolerance.Path One: All users share the losses. KelpDAO will uniformly deduct 18.5% of the losses from all rsETH holders proportionally. Currently, there are about 666,000 rsETH collateralized across the Aave network, primarily highly leveraged on the mainnet and L2 (assuming all are at a 95% liquidation LTV). Once socialized losses occur, the equity of all positions on the mainnet will be completely wiped out, resulting in approximately $216 million in bad debt. The Umbrella protocol can cover $55 million in bad debt, and the Aave treasury will additionally bear $85 million, leaving a gap of about $76 million. KelpDAO may fill this gap by borrowing or selling Aave tokens (currently valued at about $51 million), but this would still put significant pressure on Aave, and all users would need to share the losses.Path Two: Directly rug the rsETH holders on L2. KelpDAO will only guarantee the mainnet rsETH and consider the rsETH on L2 as worthless. Currently, Aave L2 has about $359 million in rsETH collateral (calculated at current oracle prices), and if all are calculated at maximum leverage, it would result in approximately $341 million in bad debt, which cannot be covered by the Umbrella protocol at all. Aave can only use the treasury or borrowing to save part of the market, most likely abandoning chains like Arbitrum, Mantle, and Base, which have the largest losses, leading to a collapse of these L2 markets. This option has a minor impact on the Aave mainnet but would severely damage the credibility of the L2 ecosystem and could trigger a chain reaction.Path Three: Attempt to refund only the holders based on a snapshot taken before the hack, which is extremely difficult to execute. KelpDAO tries to fully refund only the rsETH holders based on the snapshot taken before the hack, while subsequent buyers or transfer holders would bear the losses themselves. However, since funds have significantly flowed after the attack, and the nature of DeFi protocols is liquidity pools, it is impossible to truly distinguish between different batches of depositors, making technical execution very challenging. The hacker borrowed $124 million on the Aave mainnet and $18 million on Arbitrum, and after deducting the coverage from the Umbrella protocol, there remains about $91 million in losses. Although this plan theoretically minimizes the spread of impact, its practical implementation is nearly impossible and could easily lead to legal and community disputes.

According to the Hong Kong Commercial Daily, in response to the increasingly heated topic of "Middle Eastern funds flowing in" to Hong Kong, the Deputy Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Chen Haolian, stated that there are indeed more clients inquiring about how to transfer funds to Hong Kong or open accounts in Hong Kong, and that there is a two-way exchange between Hong Kong and the Middle East.He revealed that a licensed virtual insurance company in Hong Kong has expanded its business in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and that tokenized funds from Hong Kong have landed on Middle Eastern wealth management platforms. Additionally, Asian funds can purchase Islamic bond ETFs in Hong Kong, providing Middle Eastern investors with a familiar and trustworthy market.Chen Haolian emphasized that the Hong Kong government will actively develop financial technology and digital assets, and is currently formulating legislative proposals for the licensing system of digital asset trading and custody services, aiming to establish a complete regulatory framework to develop Hong Kong into a global hub for digital asset innovation.
