According to BlockBeats, on March 13, Zhu Su, the founder of Three Arrows Capital, expressed concerns on social media regarding the impact of CeDeFi on Ethereum. He stated that the rise of CeDeFi represents a significant challenge for Ethereum, as many open smart contracts, initially envisioned to operate on distributed networks, are now being executed on single servers with closed-source code. Zhu Su emphasized the need for Ethereum to embrace applications that require global distributed computing and censorship resistance, particularly those with cryptographic attributes like privacy protection. He warned that if Ethereum's performance remains subpar, the revival of DeFi will be difficult to achieve. In a world where validator decentralization and smart contract demand are low, off-chain solutions may become mainstream due to their cost and efficiency advantages.#ZhuSu #Ethereum #CeDeFi #DeFi #SmartContracts #CensorshipResistance #PrivacyProtection #Blockchain #Decentralization #OffChainSolutions #ETH

According to Odaily, the cybersecurity team at SlowMist has issued a warning about the North Korean hacker group Lazarus, which is employing a new type of malware named OtterCookie to launch targeted attacks on cryptocurrency and financial professionals. The attack strategies include fabricating high-paying job interviews or investor meetings, using deepfake videos to impersonate recruiters, and disguising malware as 'programming tests' or 'system update packages.' The malware aims to steal credentials saved in browsers, passwords and digital certificates from macOS keychains, as well as information and private keys from cryptocurrency wallets.
SlowMist advises maintaining vigilance against unsolicited job offers or investment invitations, ensuring multiple verifications for remote interviews, and avoiding running unknown executable files, particularly those labeled as 'technical tests' or 'update patches.' They recommend strengthening endpoint protection (EDR), deploying antivirus software, and regularly checking for abnormal processes.#NorthKorea #Hackers #Cryptocurrency #Malware #Lazarus #Cybersecurity #SlowMist #OtterCookie #DigitalSecurity #PrivacyProtection #EndpointProtection #Antivirus #CyberAttacks #JobScams #InvestmentFraud

🚀 Vitalik Discusses Multisig Wallet Address Confirmation on X Platform
#Vitalik #MultisigWallet #AddressConfirmation #XPlatform #Etherscan #SafeApp #OpenSource #PrivacyProtection #WalkawayTest #Blockchain #PrivacyFriendly #ViewKey #BlockExplorers #ETH
Vitalik recently shared insights on the X platform regarding the confirmation of multisig wallet signer addresses without the Safe application installed on his mobile device. According to Odaily, he utilized Etherscan to locate the address and employed the 'read contract' feature to obtain the necessary information directly. Vitalik emphasized that if wallets or applications remain open-source and pass a 'walkaway test,' users can enjoy a better experience. In scenarios where the Safe website is not directly usable, providing alternative solutions can be beneficial for users.
Due to privacy protection needs, these workflows may eventually change. An equivalent privacy-friendly approach involves users saving a 'view key' containing additional private information. Block explorers can support this feature by placing private information in the URL's tag section, ensuring it remains within the application client. However, considering the risks associated with users pasting keys in URLs or web pages, more operations will ultimately need to be completed directly through the wallet.#Vitalik #MultisigWallet #AddressConfirmation #XPlatform #Etherscan #SafeApp #OpenSource #PrivacyProtection #WalkawayTest #Blockchain #PrivacyFriendly #ViewKey #BlockExplorers #ETH

🚀 World ID v4.0 Introduces Account Abstraction and Enhanced Security Features
#WorldIDv4 #AccountAbstraction #EnhancedSecurity #MultiKeySupport #KeyRotation #KeyRevocation #RecoveryAgent #PrivacyProtection #OPRF #RelyingPartyRegistry #PhishingPrevention #ProtocolUpdate
World has announced the release of World ID v4.0, incorporating account abstraction into its protocol. According to Foresight News, this upgrade transitions World ID from a single key to an abstract record within the public registry "WorldIDRegistry," enabling multiple authorization keys for users to generate proofs across various devices or platforms.
Key features of this upgrade include multi-key support, allowing users to manage multiple authenticators while maintaining a single identity. The protocol's resilience is enhanced with support for key rotation and revocation, and the introduction of an optional recovery agent to address key loss.
Additionally, a web-based reference authenticator has been launched to simplify browser usage. Privacy protection is strengthened through OPRF nodes that generate one-time nullifiers, preventing long-term tracking while maintaining proof integrity.
The update also introduces a Relying Party Registry, enabling authenticators to identify request sources to prevent phishing attacks and laying the groundwork for future protocol fees.#WorldIDv4 #AccountAbstraction #EnhancedSecurity #MultiKeySupport #KeyRotation #KeyRevocation #RecoveryAgent #PrivacyProtection #OPRF #RelyingPartyRegistry #PhishingPrevention #ProtocolUpdate
🚀 Vitalik Buterin Criticizes New EVM Chains for Lack of Innovation
#VitalikButerin #EVMChains #Innovation #Ethereum #Blockchain #OptimisticBridges #L1 #Rollup #L2 #PrivacyProtection #ApplicationChains #STARK #EconomicActivities #PublicRelations #EcosystemInteroperability #ETH
Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin has expressed concerns over the proliferation of new EVM chains that merely replicate existing architectures. According to Odaily, Buterin argues that many of these chains connect to Ethereum through optimistic bridges with a week's delay, akin to replicating Compound's governance. While this approach may seem convenient, it ultimately stifles innovation and leads the ecosystem into a dead end. The situation worsens if new chains do not connect to Ethereum's optimistic bridge, acting purely as alternative L1s. The ecosystem, Buterin suggests, requires projects that introduce new features such as privacy protection, application-specific efficiency, or ultra-low latency.
Buterin emphasizes that the form of 'Ethereum connection' must align with actual functionality. For instance, prediction market applications can issue and settle markets on L1 and manage user accounts, but trade execution should occur on a Rollup or L2 system, with L1 verifying signatures and market status. Deep integration with L1 architecture should be prioritized over superficial bridging for recognition. Another type of 'application chain' could verify algorithm execution in government, social media, or gaming platforms, using technologies like STARK to ensure updates are authorized and executed according to pre-committed rules. Although not entirely Ethereum-based, these chains can offer algorithm transparency and minimize trust, enabling previously impossible economic activities.
New projects should achieve two main objectives: first, genuinely innovate rather than merely replicate existing EVM chains; second, ensure that public relations align with actual functionality. The claimed level of connection to Ethereum should accurately reflect the project's technical and ecological dependencies, ensuring ecosystem interoperability and long-term value.#VitalikButerin #EVMChains #Innovation #Ethereum #Blockchain #OptimisticBridges #L1 #Rollup #L2 #PrivacyProtection #ApplicationChains #STARK #EconomicActivities #PublicRelations #EcosystemInteroperability #ETH
