Over 50% of tokens are sniped in their creation block 🌾 Pine Analytics measured it: same-block sniping is the dominant launch pattern - 87% of insider snipes profitable, 85% out within five minutes. Extraction became infrastructure. It's the pattern bread.hot's 2% cap is aimed at - a standard, not a guarantee.



A post-quantum signature scheme producing 324-byte signatures is getting serious attention in the Ethereum security community right now. It is called SHRINCS. @quipnetwork's co-founder is presenting it alongside other hash-based post-quantum signatures currently running on smart contracts today. Hash-based. Stateful. Over 7x smaller than ML-DSA-44. Built entirely on SHA-256, the same hash function already securing Bitcoin's proof of work and Merkle trees. No new cryptographic assumptions required. Think of it like a lock that uses the smallest possible key without compromising the strength of the lock itself. Most post-quantum signatures are bulky because security and size usually trade off against each other. SHRINCS finds a more efficient path for use cases where the number of signatures per key is small, combining a stateful signing mechanism with a stateless fallback under one 32-byte public key. His framing: "Quantum computers break the ECDSA signatures behind every Ethereum account. But you can go post-quantum today." This matters for @quipnetwork specifically because the network is already shipping multiple post-quantum approaches across different chains. It already ships WOTS+ on Bitcoin, hybrid classical plus ML-DSA on Ethereum, and those same hybrid signatures now running in WebAssembly for browsers and lightweight clients. SHRINCS is one more serious candidate. @quipnetwork is building the layer that makes deploying any of them possible.
