  • Blockstream Debuts Simplicity, a Leaner Smart Contract Language for Bitcoin

    Bitcoin infrastructure company, Blockstream, is betting it can do what others have failed to do: bring working smart contracts to the Bitcoin network. On Thursday, Blockstream, a Canadian Bitcoin infrastructure firm that builds tech for decentralized finance, launched Simplicity, a smart contract programming language for its Liquid sidechain. The goal is to bring Ethereum-style functionality to Bitcoin, without the bloat or security risks. Smart contracts have long been a missing piece of Bitcoi...

    GOAT Network Bets on Fast ZK Proofs to Capture Bitcoin Layer 2 Yield

    GOAT Network launched a public beta Thursday for what it claims is the first zero-knowledge rollup built directly on Bitcoin, capable of generating cryptographic proofs in under three seconds. The rollout—dubbed BitVM2 Beta—is aimed at tackling long-standing performance issues on Bitcoin, including slow transaction finality and the lack of scalable, Bitcoin-denominated yield options. “Layer 2 transactions are fast, but they’re pointless without equally fast proofs to finalize on the Bitcoin main...

    From Metaverse to Machine Learning, Inside Meta’s $72 Billion AI Gamble

    Meta is investing billions in AI infrastructure and intensifying efforts to recruit talent from rivals as it accelerates its push into artificial intelligence. But for all the talk of “superintelligence,” the company’s latest pivot raises questions of whether this is a genuine push for innovation or another high-stakes gamble. Meta’s plan is sweeping and expensive. In the second quarter of 2025 alone, the tech giant poured $17 billion into infrastructure, where CFO Susan Li said 2025’s total cap...

    Bitcoin and Ethereum Aren’t Ready For Quantum Computers, Researcher Says

    Quantum computing could one day break the cryptographic foundations that secure trillions of dollars in crypto assets—and according to a new report from Mysten Labs, some blockchains are more unprepared than others. The report, released Wednesday, argues that networks using the EdDSA signature scheme—such as Solana, Sui, and Near—are structurally better positioned to withstand quantum threats. Older chains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, which rely on the ECDSA system, face steeper cryptographic and...

    NYM Privacy Token Pumps as UK Demand for VPNs Spikes

    The Nym protocol token jumped 12% Tuesday after demand for a VPN in the UK spiked more than 6,000% in response to the Online Safety Act, which now requires age checks on adult and social media websites, according to a new report by VPNMentor. NYM, the native token of the decentralized VPN and privacy platform of the same name, was trading at $0.05 on Tuesday, according to CoinGecko. The jump in value also follows the launch of NymVPN’s iOS app the day before. “The reason there's an increase is b...

    US Taps Firm for Massive AI Drone Shipment to Ukraine

    The Pentagon has awarded a $50 million contract to multinational defense software firm Auterion to deliver 33,000 AI-powered “strike kits” to Ukraine. The kits convert commercial drones into autonomous weapons and are expected to ship by the end of the year. “The strike kits are platform-agnostic, so that they can be used with any drone type,” an Auterion spokesperson told Decrypt. It comes two months after Ukraine launched a large-scale attack against Russian targets using commercial drones. Me...

    AI Avatars Are Pushing Mega-Dose Magnesium—Doctors Say It’s a Health Risk

    Magnesium is having a moment. Touted as the latest cure-all by wellness influencers—and their increasingly realistic AI clones—the mineral is flooding social media feeds with promises of better sleep, less stress, and longer lives. But medical experts say the trend is full of misinformation, and potentially dangerous. Promoted by humans and AI-generated avatars across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, magnesium supplements are being sold as catch-all cures for anxiety, insomnia, and weight gain. S...

    New ChatGPT Agent Can Book, Browse, and Fill Forms—Just Don't Trust It Yet

    OpenAI rolled out its ChatGPT agent to Plus, Pro, and Team subscribers on Thursday, offering users a powerful new way to automate online tasks. But the launch came with a warning: the agent could expose users to prompt injection attacks. “When you sign ChatGPT agent into websites or enable connectors, it will be able to access sensitive data from those sources, such as emails, files, or account information,” OpenAI wrote in a blog post. The feature will also be able to take actions, such as shar...

    White House Releases Trump's 'AI Action Plan'—Here's What's in It

    The White House on Wednesday unveiled a national strategy to cement U.S. dominance in artificial intelligence—drawing criticism from civil rights and policy groups who say it sacrifices safety for power. The “AI Action Plan” outlines the Trump administration’s push to fast-track AI infrastructure, export American-made systems to allies, and roll back Biden-era regulations seen as obstacles to growth. Today the @WhiteHouse released America’s AI Action Plan to win the global race. We need to OUT...

    Tesla’s Retro Diner Opens in Los Angeles with Burgers, Big Screens and Angry Neighbors

    Tesla’s long-awaited retro-style diner finally opened over the weekend in Los Angeles, and yes, there’s rollerskating waitstaff, rooftop seating, and a humanoid robot handing out popcorn. No, you can’t pay in Dogecoin, yet. Located near the iconic Paramount Studios, the two-story fever dream sits atop a Supercharger hub with 80 EV-only parking spaces. Part midcentury nostalgia trip, part Muskovite experiment, the diner has seating for 250 people and features two, drive-in-movie-sized LED screens...

All of the mysterious breaches occurred on May 28, 2025. Ring denied that a hack had taken place, and in a status update, blamed the issue on a backend update. “We are aware of an issue where...

Leonidas is a family of advanced high-powered systems developed by Epirus that uses microwaves to disable drone swarms and other electronic threats. Named after the famous Spartan king, Leonidas is already drawing interest from the Pentagon. Unlike laser-based weapons, Leonidas emp...

    Not even a “MechaHitler” meltdown was enough to scare off the Pentagon, apparently. Just days after xAI’s Grok chatbot generated a stream of antisemitic and homophobic responses, Elon Musk’s company announced that it secured a $200 million defense contract to develop and supply AI tools to federal workers. The Department of Defense’s Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office announced the contract on Monday, saying it is designed to help the government tap into the latest AI tools for eve...
