New Bitcoin Proposal Aims to Protect Against Quantum Computing Threats

A proposed Bitcoin update could render quantum-vulnerable coins unusable, while AI agents are increasingly handling crypto payments, and CoW Swap faces a security breach. The Bitcoin community is considering a proposal to migrate coins to quantum-resistant addresses, which would protect against potential quantum computer attacks. However, this could result in coins being frozen if not migrated. In other news, AI agents are being used for various tasks, including crypto payments, but research has found that the infrastructure supporting these agents may not be secure. Meanwhile, CoW Swap has halted its services due to a domain name system hijacking incident. Additionally, the XRP Ledger has integrated zero-knowledge proofs, allowing for private transactions on the public blockchain while meeting regulatory requirements.
