Bitcoin Proposal Sparks Concerns Over Quantum-Resistant Coins

A recent Bitcoin proposal has raised concerns among cryptocurrency enthusiasts, as it suggests that coins could be frozen if they are not migrated to quantum-resistant addresses. This move is part of an effort to build defenses against future quantum computers that could compromise Bitcoin's blockchain. Meanwhile, AI agents are increasingly being used to handle crypto payments, but new research has highlighted the potential security risks of this technology. In other news, CoW Swap, a decentralized trading interface, has temporarily halted its services due to a domain name system (DNS) hijacking incident. Additionally, the XRP Ledger has added native support for zero-knowledge proofs, allowing financial institutions to transact privately on the public blockchain while meeting regulatory requirements.
