🚨 BREAKING: Hungary bans LGBTQ+ Pride events in public since chiIdren might be present. 136 to 27 vote in parliament. Opponents set off smoke bombs:
Community note
This video and the 136-27 vote date back to March 18 2025, so labeling it as "BREAKING" is misleading. The relevant restrictions were officially lifted in October 2026. apnews.com/article/hungar… bbc.com/news/articles/

Private key leak? It supposed to be HSM, isn't it?
Binance's initial investigation suggests that the security incident may involve a compromised DevOps engineer’s laptop, which allowed an attacker to gain access to a service container and submit unauthorized withdrawal transactions. We have found no evidence of any wallet private key leak. We will share a detailed technical post-mortem once the investigation is complete and the facts are fully verified. The estimated total impact sits at around $6.3B. We have worked with blockchain partners to freeze affected assets, with ~$3 billion frozen on-chain so far. Binance will cover all losses from the SAFU fund and the company’s funds. User funds are safe. We will also publish an updated Proof of Reserves once the remediation is complete. As an immediate precaution, Binance has: - temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals while security checks are completed; - revoked the affected address authorisation; - engaged law enforcement and blockchain intelligence partners to trace and recover funds. Our teams are working around the clock to resolve this issue safely and thoroughly. We are working closely with our law enforcement partners to confirm the identity of these criminals and bring them to justice. Please rely only on official Binance channels for updates. Please feel free to contact Binance Customer Support if you have any further questions. binance.com/en/support/annou…

Google made a change to their RCS service breaking using it for a small number of users. It's likely in the process of being rolled out and is gradually causing issues for more users. We're already working on resolving it. It isn't caused by the OS update about to move to Stable.

Just in case it wasn’t clear: we popped the iPhone Duo on release day, adding a much needed feature, inspired by the php2shell hacker @lcfr_hax! What else there to hack? Wrong answers only.

Oh! I set up 2FA, but WhatsApp doesn't require 2FA to reset the account 💀. How do they get the OTP? 1. Make sure your phone is offline by pinging it. 2. Request the OTP via phone call. 3. Spoof your number and call your voicemail. Ask your provider to disable voicemail or set a PIN for it. I'm going to stop using voicemail and WhatsApp.
My WhatsApp was hacked. If you receive any message, it wasn't me. How did they hack me? 1. I DID NOT set up 2FA (my bad). 2. They took advantage of this, since I used ROAMING when I went to Token 2049. 3. They reset and changed my account email and password. Take care!

1. The attacker starts a Telegram login with your phone number and asks for the code by phone call. 2. They do it at night, or keep your line busy, so the call goes to your carrier voicemail. The code gets recorded there. 3. Many carrier voicemails have no PIN by default and trust caller ID. The attacker fakes your number (spoofing), calls your voicemail, and gets straight in. 4. They listen to the code and log into your Telegram. No hacking of your phone needed.

Yes. Joseph Hirt, from a Jewish family that fled Poland, tattooed a real Auschwitz prisoner's number on his arm and lectured for years as a survivor. Exposed in 2016, he admitted fabricating the story. Rare; authentic tattoos match Nazi records.

Here's how exactly Telegram provides user data to U.S. authorities. A letter recently filed in court shows how Telegram transfers that data, such as IP address and phone number. More: 404media.co/heres-what-teleg…

It turns out @Starknet was right the whole time.
🚨STARKNET IS LOOKING AT BECOMING ITS OWN CHAIN! @Starknet said it is actively considering a move from an Ethereum L2 to an L1, with 2027 as the target for a fully quantum-resistant network. StarkWare CEO @EliBenSasson, a Zcash co-founder, said the reason is “bunker mode”. Bunker mode is the warning that AI could crack today’s wallet math before quantum computers do. As an L2 it has to wait on Ethereum, which is aiming for 2029. An L1 would let Starknet change its own security first.

It's important to raise awareness, but unnecessary to threaten people.
Today I call upon the blockchain industry to calmly begin planning for "bunker mode". My personal recommendation is to set in motion a controlled mass migration of assets to fresh addresses, i.e. addresses whose pubkeys remain hidden behind a hash. Holders, starting with large and sophisticated ones, should consider moving the bulk of their funds to addresses that have never signed a transaction. And when they do sign one, they should also move remaining funds to a new address (possibly generated from the same seed phrase). Don't rush. While I believe there is cause for action a rushed migration would do more harm than good. Don't panic either. Moving assets to protected addresses is a simple, preventative step which does not require new cryptography or new wallets. IMO it is now reasonable to brace for the possibility that ECDSA breaks before qday, in the worst case in months not years. By "break" I mean fast private key recovery (e.g. in one week) on available hardware (e.g. a large GPU cluster). Recent days have been humbling for human mathematical intuition. Long-held, unquestioned hypotheses have fallen. This includes the n log(n) bound for integer multiplication and the 3SUM conjecture. In hindsight, May's unexpected disproof of the Erdős unit distance conjecture was our warning shot. Yesterday's OpenAI drop made it clear that mathematical superintelligence is upon us. They say there are weeks where decades happen. We are about to live through weeks where centuries of mathematical progress happen. Could our magic 64-byte ECDSA signatures be too good to be true? Was it just security through obscurity all this time? Elliptic curves feel especially vulnerable to superintelligence. Curves carry rich structure, with room for fancy tricks like Schoof, Frobenius, pairings. (By contrast, hashes are designed to minimise algebraic structure.) Separately, as Ewin Tang can attest, an efficient quantum algorithm sometimes foreshadows an efficient classical one. We should be open to the possibility of a classical counterpart to Shor that breaks elliptic curves and RSA at once. Also noteworthy is the striking under-representation of cryptographic breakthroughs among the 722 mathematical results OpenAI published. I've witnessed first-hand the US government censoring academic quantum cryptanalysis results. Backroom interventionism is my base case. I urge large, sophisticated actors to lead by example. Project11's "risq list" (bitcoin-risq-list.projecteleven[.]com) is a great tracker of exposed BTC pubkeys. Binance, Bitbank, Robinhood, Bitfinex, and Tether have an opportunity to harden their cold storage. Next month I'll address institutions in London in a live Q&A (forum.ethereuminstitutional[.]org/london-2026). Again, please do not rush. Wallets holding under 50 BTC enjoy partial cover from "Satoshi's shield", i.e. his 20K exposed addresses that hold 50 BTC each. Load-bearing signers like oracles and L2 security councils should consider rotating ECDSA pubkeys with every signed message and/or multi-signing with a hash-based schemes like SPHINCS. Exiting bunker mode safely will require post-AI cryptography. My inclination is to go all-in on hash-based cryptography and avoid structured mathematical assumptions entirely, whether from curves, lattices, or isogenies. A single battle-tested hash (e.g. from the SHA or BLAKE families) yields plausible post-AI security. The Ethereum roadmap on strawmap[.]org fully embraces hash-based cryptography with end-to-end formal verification as a response to the quantum threat. Those timelines must now be revisited and accelerated in light of mathematical superintelligence. I'll be pushing for maximum defensive acceleration.
