Bitcoin Proposal Aims to Protect Against Quantum Threats

A groundbreaking Bitcoin proposal, BIP-361, has been introduced to safeguard against potential quantum computer threats. This measure could lead to the migration of coins to quantum-resistant addresses, with non-compliant coins facing permanent freezing. Meanwhile, research highlights the vulnerabilities of AI agents handling crypto payments, and CoW Swap has suffered a DNS hijacking incident. In a separate development, the XRP Ledger has integrated zero-knowledge proofs, enabling private transactions on the public blockchain while meeting regulatory requirements.
