Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has backed Moonshot AI’s decision to limit the offensive cybersecurity capabilities of its latest Kimi K3.1 Pro model, arguing that reducing dangerous AI functions is preferable to restricting access based on users’ identities. Buterin shared his position on October 26, following Moonshot’s announcement that it had
Trueo, a decentralised prediction market protocol, has announced it is migrating from Base to Ethereum mainnet. The decision, the team says, has nothing to do with Base’s positioning among competing chains, and everything to do with what Ethereum offers that nothing else can match. The unparalleled network effects, global integrations,
Vitalik Buterin dismissed all allegations concerning the ability of AI hackers to render cybersecurity indefensible due to advancements in artificial intelligence technology. Buterin said that AI could help improve the cybersecurity system by means of formal verification. This involves using mathematical proofs to assess the security properties of software. However,
Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, praised the progress of UTXO research by Bitcoin developers while explaining Ethereum’s new scaling direction. This shows how the new hybrid architecture can be created using Ethereum’s account system along with the UTXO state system. Such an architecture will enable various activities to take
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin released a comprehensive piece describing Obfuscation in crypto industry. He explained how cryptographic obfuscation could strengthen blockchain privacy and security in the future. Obfuscation converts ordinary code into an encrypted form while allowing it to produce the same output. As opposed to encryption that secures stored
Vitalik Buterin raised an alarm about the rise in authoritarianism across the globe. And how this could impact open technology and decentralized systems. He challenged the crypto community to rethink the governance structures that are used in guiding blockchain and other decentralized systems. He argued that decentralization in technology is
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin emphasized the need for Ethereum to become “sanctuary tech” in order to uphold the concept of human freedom in the face of increasing centralized control. However, Buterin made these assertions during a public address, where he emphasized the role of technology in the preservation of civil
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has put forward a proposal that is focused on limiting the extractable values that miners and validators are able to extract from the Ethereum network. He explained that the current rules that govern block construction give builders a great deal of freedom in how they order
The co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, has outlined four specific upgrades. These are to make Ethereum more resilient to the future threat of quantum computing. He has made this roadmap public and has mentioned some technical areas that need long-term planning and coordination of research. Buterin warned that advanced quantum
Vitalik Buterin has clarified the reasons why the cryptocurrency sector will never be able to provide perfect security, citing the complexity of human intent. In a recent X post, the Ethereum founder went on to say that blockchain networks will never be able to perfectly interpret the complex intentions of
