Breaking 🚨 @BtcpayServer told every operator to shut their instances down after reports of attackers sweeping hot wallets. Operators were told to run ./btcpay-down.sh and stay offline until they finish looking into it. No versions named, no loss numbers, no patch yet. Applies to everyone.

Breaking 🚨 Jupiter Lend withdrawals delayed amid liquidity crunch Depositors on Jupiter’s Solana lending market are waiting after borrowers drained nearly all available stablecoin liquidity. USDC vault: ~$417M supplied, just ~$15 withdrawable earlier as low as $3.35. JupUSD & USDT vaults less strained. Team: Protocol working as designed, funds are safe. Withdrawals resume as loans are repaid or new deposits arrive. High borrow rates in place to encourage that. No timeline given.

Breaking 🚨 A wave of unauthorized wallet drains has been linked to activity on predictdotfun, with stolen funds being laundered through Tornado Cash. An onchain investigator has identified 19 affected wallets, with total losses reaching approximately 105 ETH ~$260,000 USD. Compromised funds are being bridged to the Ethereum network before being forwarded to Tornado Cash. Investigators are examining a potential vulnerability involving Privy embedded wallets, though the root cause remains unconfirmed. Predictdotfun has not yet issued a public response. If you have money on @predictdotfun or associated wallets better to bridge your funds out immediately to prevent further loss.

Bitcoin Core, the software most of the bitcoin network runs on, used to keep medium and high severity flaws under embargo until two weeks after the last affected version reached end of life, which could mean about a year. Maintainers have now merged a change to the project's security policy that ends this for bugs an AI can easily rediscover. During triage, Core can now flag a vulnerability as easy to discover, meaning one that can be found with a simple prompt to an LLM. Those fixes get backported to every supported version and shipped in a point release as soon as possible, together with a security advisory. Antoine Poinsot of Chaincode Labs, who wrote the change, pointed to a jump in reports driven by LLMs lowering the bar to find certain classes of issues. In late July, a 16-developer volunteer group ran AI models across 390 bitcoin projects and logged 4,962 potential flaws, 85 of them critical. The tradeoff is less testing: patches won't get as much "bake time" before reaching users. No bug has been flagged under the new rule yet.
