The Trump administration’s new national cyber strategy places the security of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies within the United States’ broader push to maintain leadership in emerging technology.

By any measure, that is an impressive track record. But Ripple is not resting on it. In a detailed post published on March 26, Ripple engineer Ayo Akinyele revealed that the team has overhauled its entire security approach, deploying artificial intelligence to hunt for vulnerabilities deep inside the XRPL codebase. And the AI has already found things humans missed. The AI Red Team Is Already Working Ripple has established a…

Miami Beach, FL — Tokenized money will fail to deliver on its promise if it remains siloed within individual banks, according to Ryan Rugg, Citigroup’s head of digital assets for treasury and trade solutions. Speaking at Consensus in Miami, Rugg said large corporate clients are not looking for single-bank solutions but systems that work seamlessly across financial institutions. “No one wants just a Citi token,” he said. “They want that multi-bank aspect of it.” The comment reflects a core challenge in the push to bring blockchain-based payments into mainstream finance. While banks have begun issuing tokenized deposits and building internal…

The mounting fears that leaps in quantum computing could fundamentally break Bitcoin ($BTC) grew once more on March 31, 2026, when Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL) published a landmark whitepaper on the topic. Indeed, the document – author in cooperation with Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN), the Stanford Institute for Blockchain Research, and the Ethereum Foundation as collaborators – showcased that the danger the new technology could uncover a private key using a public key is credible and one of the co-authors, Justin Drake, even opined on X that the event might come as soon as 2032.

Vitalik Buterin said keyed nonces could become more than a privacy upgrade for Ethereum. In an X post, he described them as a possible first step toward a new state scaling strategy built around specialized storage. The idea focuses on moving certain use cases away from Ethereum’s fully dynamic state. Meanwhile, privacy transactions remain a key example, as nullifiers keep growing over time and cannot be pruned after they enter the system. Vitalik Explains Keyed Nonces Buterin said keyed nonces add stronger protocol-level support for privacy solutions. However, he also framed them as part of a wider plan to create…
