.@cyfrin has been working tirelessly to shift security left, into developers' hands, since day 1. - Building tools like @SoloditOfficial, Aderyn, Moccasin - Teaching people how to become auditors at @CyfrinUpdraft - Doing conventional audits And we just took another step

I think a lot of devs prepare for audits the wrong way. They look for more checklists. More tool outputs. More “common findings”. What usually matters earlier is whether you can actually reason through your own protocol: - what users do, - what the system assumes, - where flows break, - what an attacker would notice first. That is the kind of thinking I want to make more accessible with Shadow Arena. It is a place to get reps on security reasoning instead of just consuming more theory. academy.zealynx.io/shadow-arena

@hyperbridge, you said I should hack you, yh? x.com/hyperbridge/st… Well, unfortunately, I did not hack you, but I have a list of bugs, and this was the 3rd on my list. @seunlanlege It is better that you pause this bridge indefinitely.

I’m not even surprised. I kept tagging @Polkadot and telling them that @hyperbridge was a scam. They kept ignoring. The so called Web3 philosopher has shown them his real color. @seunlanlege my head don catch you. I know you’re behind the hack . Don’t masquerade behind hackers. You wan tear another GLE to go blockfest for South Africa. Everyone who gave that guy a platform needs to be heavily scrutinized. Even @channelstv took him to the public eye and endorsers him and now he has demonstrated what he came for.

A scammer has been hacked‼️ I was waiting for the right time to make this post. Hackers minted 1 billion Dot tokens on the ETH Chain and sold them off. Keyword: “Hack was due to Hyperbridge Gateway vulnerability” Unfortunately, the @Polkadot native token suffered the hit. Not really sorry for them because what do they expect from dealing with thieves? For context, the Hyperbridge team scammed their KOLs after having a deal by changing the terms when it was time to pay up. From then I knew the team was not honest and was not to be trusted. The native token of Hyperbridge is BRIDGE. BRIDGE IS A LIQUIDITY-LESS TOKEN: Market cap: $871k Total supply: 1 billion Status: A rug According to Coingecko, the token has no trading pair and is not tradeable on any exchange. Seun and his team used monies meant to secure and support token and ecosystem growth to buy cars and leave fake lifestyle on social media while scamming kols that posted their product Another day in the crypto industry…

🚨 New day, new hack: @hyperbridge - $237K loss. An attacker exploited a vulnerability in Hyperbridge’s Ethereum gateway contract to mint 1B bridged Polkadot tokens and dump them for ~108 ETH. The team has paused all bridging.

AI is completely rewiring smart contract security in 2026. But pasting code into Claude won't print you money. Here is the actionable roadmap to build a dominant position in AI-assisted auditing before the window closes 🧵👇

So glad to have people using Zealynx Academy to improve their Smart Contract Security awareness. This is perfect for any Solidity devs that seek some advanced knowledge to improve the quality of their code. academy.zealynx.io
zeit@kunal_gurtatta

🛡️Day 14: Blockchain Security Basin shadow audit on @ZealynxSecurity done! ✅ Found 1H/3M out of 14 findings, not that bad ✅ Learned a lot about EVM opcodes ✅ Learned more about DEX/AMMs Will go through the bugs I missed, and try not to miss similar ones in the future #web3

After so many experimentations over a very long period of time, I realized something a long time ago. The model doesn’t really matter anymore, it’s the algorithm beneath it that matters even more. True AGI to me is a convergence problem. If you run a good enough capable model long enough, it can eventually achieve the same thing as “the best model”. It would just take longer because the weaker model makes more mistakes and has more learning to do. More corrective cycles, slower convergence rate, but the destination is identical. The gap between models isn’t a gap in potential, it’s a gap in time complexity. That’s what my algorithm Palimpsest is about. Making model comparison asymptotically irrelevant. I think of it like neuroplasticity. Someone with a lower IQ being able to achieve the same thing as someone with a very high IQ, is it impossible? No, because we’re humans and we’re extremely flexible. The brain doesn’t need the optimal pathway, it just needs a pathway. Synaptic reinforcement kicks in, it reroutes, it reorganizes over time toward the same endpoint. It costs more, it takes longer, but the outcome is functionally equivalent. Different substrate, same solution. That’s convergent evolution applied to intelligence. A true AGI system should make model branding ecologically obsolete. But there is a lower bound to this, a minimum threshold of baseline capacity the model needs to clear first. Below it, the system just doesn’t have the representational complexity to even encode the solution space. You can’t expect the dumbest model like GPT-2 to become Einstein, same way you can’t expect a nematode’s 302 neurons to produce abstract thought. The substrate has to be capable enough to at least begin converging. Based on my observations, that lower bound became practically reachable when o3 came out. That was the inflection point. Every foundational AI company out there is focused on throwing more and more compute at the problem, obsessing over model capacity, I’m working on the other end. I don’t think more intelligence is needed, it’s already enough. We already crossed the lowest constant bound, the threshold is behind us now.
