@RealJohnnyTime @NikitaVarabei @ChainPatrol You Always drive great content

[JohnnyTime 🤓🔥 @RealJohnnyTime]

Now that we’ve seen how many hackers still rely on traditional Web2 cybersecurity tactics - like social engineering and infrastructure compromises (Bybit’s $1.5 billion hack) - I’m excited to share my latest podcast with @NikitaVarabei, the founder of @ChainPatrol.

ChainPatrol is doing critical work in preventing these types of attacks, and in this episode, we shift gears from smart contract security to Web3 client-side security - an area that’s just as important but often overlooked.

We covered some fascinating topics and shared a lot of valuable insights - so give it a listen now or save it for later. You won’t regret it!

According to FT, the University of Austin in the United States is raising a $5 million Bitcoin fund for its $200 million endowment fund, becoming the first such fund in the United States. Chad Thevenot, senior vice president of development at the school, said that the crypto asset portfolio will be held for at least five years. https://t.co/n18i1MVdDd

#CertiKInsight 🚨

We have detected a ~$108K flashloan exploit on unverified contract 0x2d70d62deb1cb9918ff6be7bb5d173e8cd4ad854.

The attacker called its unprotected 'depositBNB()' to swap 226 BNB on it for ADACash and made a profit with sandwiching swaps.

The fund on 0x2d70, along with 0x2505393295847525577f83a8dfcb2f1a908bfe2 and 0x961149853ad31c5640ea8081459fabdd94a2a428, is likely traced to @earnhubBSC rug-pull in late 2021 early 2022.

Stay Vigilant!

I’ve never used ZK in my life or FHE

The problem is that we keep talking about all these amazing things, but no one is actually using them. We’ve had teams building ZK Identity apps for years, but how many people are actually using those solutions?

😲 Built-in Malware Found in Contec CMS8000 Medical Devices

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has identified critical vulnerabilities in the Contec CMS8000 Patient Monitor, manufactured by China’s Contec Health. These devices, used globally—including in Israel—to monitor patient vitals, have been found to contain built-in malware.

Key Findings:
•Hidden Backdoor: The device sends remote access requests to a hard-coded IP address, bypassing existing network settings. This backdoor could allow malicious actors to upload and overwrite files on the device.
•Patient Data Exposure: In its default configuration, the monitor transmits unencrypted patient data to a hard-coded public IP address, potentially leaking confidential information.

CISA’s Recommendations:
•Immediate Action: Remove any Contec CMS8000 devices from networks to prevent potential exploitation.
•Stay Informed: For detailed guidance and updates, refer to CISA’s advisory on this issue.

Given the potential use of these devices in Israel, it’s crucial for healthcare providers to assess their equipment and implement CISA’s recommendations promptly.

DeepSeek has now erased $2 trillion in US stock market value, and NVIDIA just lost $500B+ in market cap! 💥

Why? A $6M Chinese AI startup just achieved what Silicon Valley claimed was impossible. DeepSeek's reasoning AI model rivals OpenAI’s best—but at a fraction of the cost.

🔹 OpenAI GPT-4: $600M+ to train
🔹 DeepSeek: $6M total

#DeepSeekR1 is open-source, 27x cheaper, and far more efficient in running costs. The AI game is changing rapidly—and Silicon Valley’s dominance is under threat. 🌍🔥

What are your thoughts on this AI revolution?
