🚀 Bitcoin Developers Warn Of Vulnerability In Lightning Network Software
#Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #SecurityAlert #NodeSoftware #Hackers #Vulnerability #Update #SatoshiLabs #Funds #LND
According to Odaily, experienced Bitcoin developer 'Calle' has issued a security alert to operators of nodes running older versions of Lightning Network Daemon (LND) 0.18.5 or LITD 0.14.1 software. The vulnerability is linked to how LND processes the description field of lightning invoices, potentially allowing hackers to remotely manipulate payment statuses and steal funds. Satoshi Labs co-founder Pavol Rusnak also highlighted this issue, urging Lightning Network users to promptly update their node software. The newly released versions, LND 0.18.5 and LITD 0.14.1, address this remote threat. It is important to note that LND 0.18.5 was only released last week, leaving many LND nodes outdated and vulnerable. As of the report's release, there are hundreds or possibly thousands of outdated LND nodes. Historically, LND has been the preferred software for most Lightning node operators.#Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #SecurityAlert #NodeSoftware #Hackers #Vulnerability #Update #SatoshiLabs #Funds #LND
🚀 U.S. Government Faces $149 Billion In Improper Payments

According to Odaily, a report by the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has revealed that the U.S. government made $149 billion in improper payments last year. This amount could fund NASA for seven years or construct 15 aircraft carriers. The largest portion of these improper payments came from Medicare and Medicaid, which accounted for over $60 billion. Tax credits followed with more than $20 billion, and food assistance programs contributed over $10 billion. In 2024, $33.5 billion was identified as potentially recoverable, but agencies managed to recover only $22.6 billion.#USGovernment #ImproperPayments #Medicare #Medicaid #TaxCredits #FoodAssistance #GovernmentEfficiency #Budget #Recovery

🚀 Microsoft Unveils Majorana 1 Quantum Chip Driven By Topological Superconductivity
#Microsoft #Majorana1 #QuantumChip #TopologicalSuperconductivity #QuantumComputing #TopologicalCore #Superconductors #Technology #Research #Innovation
According to Odaily, Microsoft has introduced Majorana 1, a groundbreaking quantum chip powered by a unique state of matter known as topological superconductivity. This advancement, published in the scientific journal Nature, utilizes a custom material called a topoconductor to create and control Majorana particles, potentially expanding quantum computing capabilities to tackle previously unsolvable problems.
Topoconductors are semiconductors that can also function as superconductors, conducting electricity with minimal energy loss at extremely low temperatures. The production of this material requires atomic-level precision and temperatures as low as minus 400 degrees. Despite the complexity and cost, Microsoft emphasizes the benefits of this effort.
Krysta Svore, a Microsoft technical researcher, stated in a company video that this material allows for the construction of a new infrastructure for quantum computing, known as the topological core. This infrastructure could enable the expansion of quantum bits on a chip to millions, rather than just dozens or hundreds.
The project is one of Microsoft's longest-running initiatives, beginning in the early 21st century when Bill Gates was CEO. Under the Majorana architecture, a quantum computer built with controllable quantum bits could solve problems beyond the reach of today's most powerful supercomputers. The current version of the chip contains eight topological quantum bits, but Microsoft claims the architecture can scale to one million quantum bits on a single palm-sized chip, pushing the boundaries of current quantum computing limitations. Microsoft plans to continue refining this technology through research collaborations before commercializing it.#Microsoft #Majorana1 #QuantumChip #TopologicalSuperconductivity #QuantumComputing #TopologicalCore #Superconductors #Technology #Research #Innovation

🚀 Hong Kong SFC Unveils New Virtual Asset Roadmap
#HongKong #SFC #VirtualAssets #ASPIRe #TradingPlatforms #Licensing #FinancialMarket #Liquidity #CryptoMarket #Investments
According to PANews, the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has introduced a new virtual asset roadmap named 'ASPIRe.' Hong Kong Legislative Council member Ng Kit Chuang highlighted that currently, licensed trading platforms in Hong Kong offer only 20 to 30 products, even for professional investors, compared to over a thousand available in the United States. He anticipates a significant increase in the number of products listed on Hong Kong's licensed trading platforms.
Allowing loan transactions is expected to boost the trading volume of virtual assets in Hong Kong. Data indicates that the liquidity of licensed virtual asset trading platforms in Hong Kong is currently insufficient. Even platforms with higher liquidity report daily trading volumes of less than $100 million, which is significantly lower than the $5.9 billion seen on similar platforms in the United States.#HongKong #SFC #VirtualAssets #ASPIRe #TradingPlatforms #Licensing #FinancialMarket #Liquidity #CryptoMarket #Investments
