And what does this…

James Ding Jul 28, 2026 17:43 Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview uncovers weaknesses in cryptographic standards, raising questions about AI’s role in cybersecurity. Anthropic researchers have used their advanced AI model, Claude Mythos Preview, to uncover mathematical vulnerabilities in two significant cryptographic algorithms: the HAWK digital signature scheme and a reduced-round version of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). These findings, though not immediately impacting current systems, highlight the growing role of AI in identifying potential weaknesses in foundational digital security frameworks. HAWK, a candidate for post-quantum cryptography under consideration by the U.S. National Institute…

A friend of mine has never touched crypto. Not once. At our last barbecue, somewhere around the third Corona, he started asking questions and did not stop.How do you buy it? What is a wallet? Why do people care about Bitcoin at all?Honestly, I assumed it was barbecue talk. Plenty of people ask, almost nobody follows through.Then a WhatsApp message landed a few days later. He had decided to start DCA’ing, and he wanted to know one thing: where do you store the coins after you buy them?That question is the whole game. Meanwhile, we just watched a wave of…

If you have ever paid more than expected on a swap or watched a liquidation happen a heartbeat before your repay, you have felt MEV take a bite. It is not a single attack. It is the structural side effect of how blockchains decide who gets into a block and in what order.We will walk through what MEV actually is in plain terms, where the ordering power sits today, the ways it shows up on your PnL, and what you can do right now to leak less value. No scare tactics. Just the mechanics, some real-world patterns, and practical fixes.None…
