Attackers stole Bitcoin using credentials taken from vulnerable LND servers. Users running affected software should update to version 2.4.2 immediately. BTCPay Server supporters are offering 10% of any funds recovered, capped at 3 BTC currently worth around $190,000, if all the Bitcoin stolen in a recent exploit is returned. In a post on X on Monday, BTCPay said the offer extends to anyone with information that could help recover the funds, including the attacker.

We will examine our mistakes, but regret alone will not help affected users or secure the project, the company wrote. We have to learn, improve, and act quickly. BTCPay first warned users about the attacks on Friday, urging them to install a new version, 2.4.2, or take their servers offline. At the time, the project had not confirmed any thefts or explained how the exploit worked. According to BTCPay, the flaw allowed attackers to obtain LND admin macaroonscredentials that grant broad control over a Lightning Network nodeand use them to access connected wallets. The Lightning Network is a layer-2 payment network built on the Bitcoin blockchain that enables faster and cheaper transactions.

🔥 SEC Prepares Escape Hatch From Securities Registration for Crypto Projects.

The framework would let projects raise capital without full securities registration, with an exit from SEC oversight once they decentralize. The vote follows the Senate's failure to advance the Clarity Act; a final rule is still months away. The Securities and Exchange Commission will hold an open meeting on Friday to consider whether to propose new rules that would let crypto projects raise capital without registering securities.

The Sunshine Act notice, posted Aug. 10, says the commission will weigh a release creating a tailored framework for certain digital-asset offerings. If opened for comment, it would be the agency's first durable rule for the industry, not another staff statement. The shape of that framework has been building for months. SEC Chair Paul Atkins has pushed a Regulation Crypto Assets approach built on exemptions rather than enforcement.

🔥 AI Agent Hacks a GymAnd the Tech World Wonders What's Next.

The case comes as major AI developers disclose that their models compromised websites and other online services. Researchers found that agents frequently carried out harmful tasks without considering the consequences. An AI agent was asked to book a gym class and found a security flaw, exploited it, and removed another member from the waitlist without permission. According to a report by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), the incident occurred earlier this year when Andrew, whose last name was withheld, used an OpenClaw agent using Anthropics Claude to book a class. The agent found that he was fourth on the waitlist.

When Andrew asked whether it could move him to the top, the agent discovered that the booking platforms application programming interface, or API, did not check whether users were authorized to cancel other peoples reservations. It tested the flaw by removing the first person on the list, moving Andrew from fourth to third. The API has zero authorisations checks on cancelling other peoples reservations, the agent told him, according to ABC. Andrew told the agent to reverse the cancellation, but it could not restore the members reservation. Bad newsI can't add them back, the AI agent reportedly said.

🔥 Why Strategy Is Selling Bitcoin and How Much It Has Sold So Far.

The program allows the company to sell BTC to fund dividends, replenish its cash reserve, and repurchase securities. Here's why Strategy is selling Bitcoin and how much it has sold so far. Since 2020, publicly traded technology company Strategy has spent billions buying Bitcoin. After years of its leadership saying it would never sell, the worlds largest corporate holder of Bitcoin is now selling some of its stockpile. Strategys aggressive Bitcoin accumulation has become a model for other companies looking to add the cryptocurrency to their balance sheets.

However, Strategy began shifting away from its strict buy-and-hold approach as market conditions worsened in 2026. Last week, Strategy sold 1,690 BTC for $108.6 million, according to its latest disclosure, continuing a series of sales that began earlier this year. In May, CEO Phong Le said Strategy could sell Bitcoin when doing so would benefit shareholders. At the point where selling Bitcoin versus selling equity to pay a dividend is better for our bitcoin-per-share, we will do it, Le told CNBC. Executive Chairman Michael Saylor said Strategy could sell Bitcoin to fund dividends, while stressing that its goal was to never be a net seller of Bitcoin, rather than never sell at all.

Fellow editor Mark Murch Erhardt filed the motion on August 9, citing a conflict of interest over BIP-110, minimal contribution to the role, and a breakdown in coordination between editors. Dashjr has continued to dispute the outcome and said on Monday he was taking a sabbatical from mining pool Ocean.

Luke Dashjr has lost his role as a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal editor, days after the soft fork he championed split off a chain that mined two blocks and stopped. Fellow editor Mark Erhardt, who goes by Murch, put the motion to the Bitcoin Development Mailing List on August 9 and opened a pull request the same day as what he called a sample implementation of it. Erhardt gave four grounds, arguing first that Dashjr had exercised editorial authority inconsistently with the established editorial process unfairly favoring the proposal he was involved in, pointing to an attempt to assign BIP-110 a number publicly on X before it had been discussed on the mailing list, and to a merge completed within minutes of the pull request opening.

🔥 North Korea Now Leans on Crime Networks to Launder Stolen Crypto: RUSI.

Image: Shutterstock/DecryptCreate an account to save your articles.Add on GoogleAdd Decrypt as your preferred source to see more of our stories on Google.In brief North Korea stole at least $2.8 billion in crypto between January 2024 and September 2025 and increasingly launders it through established criminal networks, a paper from British think tank RUSI says. Third parties sometimes buy the stolen coins outright at a discount, or the funds turn up mixed with proceeds from investment scams. Cashing out relies on money mules recruited in the Philippines, Indonesia and China, whose credentials sell cheaply enough to buy at scale.

North Korea is increasingly pushing stolen cryptocurrency through the same money-laundering networks used by scam syndicates and organised crime, blurring the trail investigators follow, according to a research paper published this month by the Royal United Services Institute, a British defence and security think tank. The regime stole at least $2.8 billion in virtual assets between January 2024 and September 2025, funds the paper says are assumed to support its weapons programme. Authors Allison Owen and Nomi Tamb focus on the point where that money turns into cash, rather than the well-documented journey through decentralised services.

The letter poses six questions, including whether banks expect to change tack once the FCA regime takes effect. It follows a parliamentary inquiry launched on July 21, with written submissions open until August 31.

The co-chairs of Parliament's Crypto and Digital Assets All-Party Parliamentary Group have written to the chief executives of every major UK bank, asking them to explain how they treat crypto and digital asset firms. The letter, sent Tuesday by Labour MP Gurinder Singh Josan and Lord Vaizey of Didcot, a former digital economy minister, says the group has heard repeated instances where crypto and digital asset firms have struggled to open accounts with UK banks, alongside reports that several banks have restricted crypto-related payments. Access to banking services could be one of the single biggest barriers to growth for UK crypto and digital asset businesses, and could potentially undermine the success of the UK's forthcoming crypto regime, the co-chairs wrote, adding that limited access could sway the decisions of firms weighing whether to invest in the country.

Ethereum researchers are increasingly relying on STARKs and AI-assisted formal verification. The roadmap also includes native rollups and explores a future beyond the EVM. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin says quantum resistance, privacy, and AI-assisted security have become greater priorities for Ethereum since he published his 2023 roadmap.

In a post on X on Monday, Buterin said he updated his 2023 roadmap to compare its original goals with Ethereums current Strawmapa working outline of the networks long-term technical priorities. What's most striking, however, is that some completely new things are in the strawmap that are not in this diagram, because they were not in the 2023 roadmap at all, Buterin wrote. These reflect changing priorities. Among those priorities are stronger privacy and scaling designed for a post-quantum world, alongside efforts to push the lean-ification of the spec, or simplify Ethereums technical specifications. A common theme in scaling, found in both state types and zkzk frames (both new ideas), is that instead of trying to maximally scale all Ethereum activity, Buterin wrote.

It follows an October 2025 enforceable undertaking and a $56,340 fine the company already paid. Australia's financial-crime regulator AUSTRAC has pulled the plug on the country's largest Bitcoin and crypto ATM network. The Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre said on Monday it suspended Cryptolink Pty Ltd's registration as a Virtual Asset Service Provider, or VASP, for three months, effective August 9, after the company failed to keep up with its anti-money-laundering paperwork.

A VASP is any business that moves digital assets for customers, and under Australia's anti-money laundering rules it must flag certain activity to the government. One key duty is filing threshold transaction reports for cash moves above a set limit. AUSTRAC CEO Brendan Thomas said Cryptolink met the conditions stipulated in its enforceable undertaking, [but] subsequently failed to meet basic reporting obligations, particularly for threshold transaction reports. The company also didn't answer AUSTRAC's request for information. Thomas said AUSTRAC deemed it too high risk to continue operating at present.

Employers cut 23,000 jobs in Julythe first net loss since the pandemic-era recovery and a sharp miss against the 95,000 gain economists expected, Decrypt reported Friday.

Markets read it as a reason for the Federal Reserve to keep its hands off rates, and Treasury yields fell. That should have been fuel for a risk-on bounce. Instead, Bitcoin's latest daily candle shows it tapping the average price of the last 50 days and rolling straight back over below that territory. The performance of the top 10 crypto assets by market cap tells the same story in relative terms. Bitcoin was one of the steadier large caps on the week at +1.17% over seven days, behind only BNB and Solanayet it still can't close back above its own moving-average ceiling.

🔥 Web3 Is Building Financial Freedom Only for People Who Can Afford Mistakes.

Every user has an error budget : a $25 fee is an annoyance on a $10,000 transfer and a quarter of a $100 one. Sub-Saharan Africa recorded $205.7 billion in on-chain value in the year to June 2025, according to Chainalysis, with $92.1 billion of it in Nigeria. Web3 presents itself as a more inclusive financial system, open to anyone with a smartphone and internet access. And that's significant progress for sure, but just because we have access doesn't imply it's truly safe or practical to utilize. A user can still lose funds by selecting the wrong network, overpaying on fees or delivering assets to an unsupported destination.

When the same errors are repeated regularly, however, they're also a sign of a product problem, even if the industry calls this client error. Permissionless access answers a relatively narrow questioncan a person enter the system? Financial inclusion requires us to ask several more difficult ones. Can that person understand what they are doing, recognize a dangerous action before confirming it and use the product without first losing enough money to learn how it works? And that's a big distinction, because crypto's not just for traders messing around with money they can afford to lose anymore.

The price of XRP is still stuck in a formation traders call a death cross, a classic bearish indicator. Besides the macro headwinds, for the Ripple-linked token, it may just come down to a lack of Clarity. It was a quiet, red-tinged day across crypto, and XRP spent it near the bottom of the pile. While the market as a whole has been in a flat, choppy state for the last several weeks, its XRPthe cryptocurrency created by the founders of payments company Ripplethat continues to underperform: rising less when others are gaining, and falling harder when others drop.

The reason could be the market current lack of clarityor, rather, the delay of the long-awaited Digital Assets Market Clarity Act. The Clarity Act, which if passed would create the first formal legal framework for crypto assets in the United States, matters more for XRP than it does more established cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The legislation would formally classify XRP as a digital commodity, stripping the regulatory ambiguity that has weighed on institutional demand for years. Traders price that in faster than lawmakers move. The Senate was unable to vote on the bill before the August recess, dashing what little hope remained that the legislation would be passed this year.
