COLDCARD FIRMWARE HOTFIX UPDATE CAN BRICK DEVICES
A new bug has been identified in COLDCARD’s emergency firmware hotfix.
While the update fixes the original entropy vulnerability, researchers say a temporary hardware RNG error can leave the device stuck on a fatal error screen before the PIN prompt, preventing users from accessing the upgrade menu.
The Economist writes that Anthropic’s Mythos AI has managed to break into nearly all classified NSA systems in just hours.
The information comes from Sen. Mark Warner (Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee) who stated during a Senate committee hearing that the NSA Director and Cyber Command Director Gen. Joshua Rudd told him that Mythos AI “broke into almost all of our classified systems—not in weeks, but in hours” during authorized testing (red-teaming.)
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

“Michael, so you own 5% of all Bitcoin & decided you were going to sell some to test the liquidity?"
“That’s correct Dave.”
“And you did this immediately after using up your cash to buy back debt at an 8% discount?”
“I did, Dave.”
“So when you actually did what you said you were going to do, the liquidity test didn't go well?”
“Sadly true, Dave.”
"And you only sold 32 BTC, even though you knew that wouldn't be enough to cover the next year of dividend payments?"
"Yes, Dave."
"So in the process of selling BTC to try & save STRC, you ended up killing BTC, STRC, & MSTR?"
"Very astutely observed, Dave."
