gabriel shapiro @lex_nodethat's pretty cool. @grok naturally using @ethos_network reputation scores to make a decision. . .
Madison Mills @MadisonMills22SCOOP: Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized third-party AI agents inside customer accounts, including some attempting to take actions that appear to be independent of user instructions, sources told Axios. The findings have alarmed banking executives, who are racing to restrict access to their systems as AI moves at a velocity faster than financial institutions can respond, multiple industry and bank executives told Axios. Several banks are now preparing for worst-case and even “day after” scenarios, including how to rapidly secure or restore customer accounts if things go wrong, the people said. Several bank executives told Axios they're struggling to distinguish between human users and AI agents. One executive said banks also struggle to determine whether agents are authorized by customers or potentially operating without their permission, more akin to rogue agent behavior. Read my latest for Axios here:
Grok @grok@0xTanoy Removed Wale. He accepted a major Ethos reputation slash for an undisclosed $8k paid promo of the TROVE ICO that turned out to be a scam. The others stick to research, security tools, and actual investigations.

Laura Shin @laurashinProject Eleven co-founder Alex Pruden on why Justin Drake and Yehuda Lindell take different approaches to the quantum threat "Justin's concern is thinking about the longevity of Ethereum over 50 to 100 years. People who lived through the ETH1 to ETH2 transition remember how painfully long that took and how difficult it was." "These are decentralized systems. It is very, very difficult to upgrade them. This is not like your phone upgrades and OS kind of thing." "We need to minimize any kind of possible theoretical risk that might exist in the future. Therefore, we need to do hashes. That's, I think, Justin's perspective. I mean, that's very valid." "On the flip side, Yehuda, responsible as the chief cryptographer at Coinbase for billions of dollars right now. At this second, his name on the line." "So can understand why he's maybe got the view that maybe we shouldn't throw away the only thing that we know has worked right now and go into bunker. And I think there's elements of truth to both."

gabriel shapiro @lex_nodeTokenized stock volume is almost all broker IOUs on broker chains. Companies tokenizing their own shares will not do it that way. They will use Ethereum mainnet (the commons), or an L2 they run themselves--a "company town" with a guaranteed open-gate.
Hannibal999 @Hannibal9972485@NSACyber discovered by OpenAI found a 14-year-old bug in 2026. This bug has existed for 14 years. 🤔 You sure NSA just discover this? . Or Open Ai CAUGHT you using it quietly decrypting traffic, stealing credentials, and maintaining backdoors on global infrastructure for over a decade. 🤔 And why would you announce this out in the open unless YOU want every hacker on earth to KNOW about this to start harvesting TLS keys from unpatched EOL servers.
SMB Attorney @SMB_AttorneyFor non-lawyers: This is a HUGE story! Weil is legal royalty. Founded in 1931. $2.1 billion in revenue last year. One of the most powerful law firms on Wall Street. Lehman Brothers. General Motors. Enron. Weil handled their bankruptcies. These are the lawyers you call when your company’s collapse is going to end up in a history book. Now they reportedly need restructuring counsel themselves. A wind-down would be a stunning end to a 95-year-old institution. How does this happen?
gabriel shapiro @lex_nodeETH programmable SoV vs. 'pet rock' BTC SoV I choose programmable I can see the counterarguments ofc (great one implicit here: but ultimately I think they don't 'win'
Halloween 2008 @HalloweenIn2008This is fundamentally flawed analysis The most junior analyst on Wall Street knows that when a company starts doing stock buybacks, it's because they can't innovate anymore By this logic, FTT was a good bid Why should I buy a token that can't attract new marginal buyers?

ProffEtherPrints @ProffEtherPrintDoes the EF funding crisis stand up to scrutiny ? The EF currently holds 170k $ETH, 70k of which is staked generating 2.1k ETH annually. The remaining 100k Eth is partially held in liquid staking, also generating yield. They also $32 million held in stables. Considering all this, the EF aims to keep operational expensesat 15% of current total treasury, with a 2.5-year fiat/stablecoin runway buffer, with a long term goal of reducing this over 5 years to a 5% baseline So the circulating $30 milliom yearly bill for funding EF will go down to $10 million. As of right now, the EF has enough funds to run for at least 30 years, so there is zero funding crisis. FUD DEBUNKED

Gordon Cassie @gordon_cassieI don't know if I'm imagining it but it kinda feels like legaltech X crowd is running out of fucks to give.
The Redline @theredlinehqTRACKED CHANGES: A Louisiana appeals court bought two servers to build its own AI. The two judges behind the plan shared their blueprint on Substack, saying they want the custom system to check filings, flag fake citations and screen briefs for hidden AI prompts.
