OpenSense raised $3,477 in donations + 2.224 ETH from the matching pool in the Ethereum Security QF round on @Giveth Thank you @thedaofund and @wintermute_t for putting up the matching pool, @Quantstamp, and every donor who showed up for free security education. OpenSense has delivered free Web3 security content to 36k+ subscribers and 11k+ hours watched: auditing, exploits, fuzzing, formal verification, EVM internals, ZK, MEV, oracles, and more. These funds keep that work running. Production and editing for new public courses. Hosting and tooling so the library stays free. Research time for a faster recon / investigation workflow for security researchers, including AI-assisted sleuthing, which is still badly underserved. If OpenSense helped you learn, this round is why we can keep shipping it in public. Security education should stay free and open.
Our first funding round was a massive success! Congratulations to all the Ethereum security projects collecting about $1.6M in total and to Giveth for organizing a fantastic QF Round. What started as a 500 ETH matching pool ultimately grew to 637 ETH+ thanks to ecosystem contributions. Shout out to @wintermute_t for adding $200K to the matching pool and to @Quantstamp whose early $50K donation helped kick off momentum for direct matching pool contributions across the round. We also saw over $300k+ in direct donations to 134 projects! Our hope is that one day using Ethereum will be safer than using banks. To get to that day we believe it will require a community effort. This round validates that approach.

And once a Mac is exploited, you can interact with any of the users "connected" devices also running Muse. ...meaning you remotely task their mobile (iOS) Muse client ...invisibly 📲🔓👀 What can you do? Welll, some very neat iOS stuff!
Please don't install - it's trivial to turn Muse into the ultimate backdoor 💀👀 Ya, as an AI assistant built to manage your Mac, Muse needs broad access to your digital life. But serious 0-day flaw(s) can let local malware/attackers invisibly hijack it. Let me show you. 🧵

Would you watch this anime? In LLW (Large Language Wars), AI models fight for dominance in epic battles. It's a concept born from pure creative chaos + techno-optimism. Help turn it into a series: drop your favorite AI model in the replies, like, and share this post.

I had the opportunity to speak at Oracle, invited by Web3EduBrasil, about one of the most important topics in Web3: on-chain investigations. It was a pleasure sharing insights with developers and professionals from companies like Nubank and Bipa. 🧵

An arbitrary state write bug in Aptos chain was disclosed by @hexens today. This is the worst kind of bug possible on a chain. Why? Not only everything on the affected chain can be stolen but also most assets across all chain can be stolen. Your stablecoins, LSTs, everything

This project has delivered free Web3 security education to 36k+ subscribers, with 11k+ hours watched, covering auditing, exploits, fuzzing, formal verification, EVM internals, ZK, MEV, oracles and more. In QF, the number of unique donors matters a lot. A small donation can have a big impact.

This is really sad moment for web3 sec community. One of the first starting points for most of the current web3 security researchers is closing down. Thanks for everything you made here and wish the team all the best in their future work.
Replying to @code4rena
After careful consideration, we’ve made the decision to wind down @code4rena. This community has meant a great deal to everyone who has been part of building it, and sharing this news is not easy.

Thank you so much!
My friend @mis4nthr0pic has @Giveth round to support his community @opensensepw. Back then in 2023, it was super helpful for me, and I believe for many others in the security community too. I have donated 250$, he will appreciate further support that he can kick it even in a bigger size qf.giveth.io/project/opensen…

In less than 24h, OpenSense reached 29 contributors on Giveth for the Ethereum Security Fund round. That’s honestly amazing. Small donations like $1, $2, or $5 matter a lot because this is Quadratic Funding. Unique verified donors help unlock matching for public goods. If OpenSense ever helped you learn Web3 security, smart contract auditing, EVM internals, ZK, MEV, or exploit analysis, this is a great moment to support it. Please check eligibility first, then donate here: qf.giveth.io/project/opensen… Thank you to everyone who already helped ❤️

I banned panels. I banned stages. Some emotions can’t be recreated by putting the same people in the same room and expecting a different result. You have to change the environment. This was FutCrypto 26. Huge thanks to @Tangem and @SuperteamBR. Pics: drive.google.com/drive/folde…
