Kaspa founder, Yonatan Sompolinsky @hashdag will speak at the @OxfordUnion on March 12. (He is at Oxford for a series of meetings from the 10th to the 12th) The #OxfordUnion has hosted world leaders, scientists, and major thinkers for over 200 years. An invitation to speak there signals that an idea has entered serious global debate. Sompolinsky’s work helped shape modern blockchain consensus. His early work on the GHOST protocol influenced design decisions in Ethereum, and his later work led to GHOSTDAG, the blockDAG consensus powering #Kaspa. Today that research and development continues with the incoming protocol, #DAGKnight, advancing the vision of real-time decentralized networks. Seeing Kaspa’s lead researcher on one of the world’s most historic academic stages reflects something important. Kaspa is not just another crypto project. It is the result of years of peer-reviewed research exploring how decentralized infrastructure can scale. March 12 will bring that conversation to one of the most respected academic halls in the world. Thanks to @Kaspa_KEF for enabling this strategic alliance with the historic Oxford Union. Note: Look forward to news about an upcoming hackathon for Oxford's top student builders to dive into the ecosystem.

A huge thank you to @CumberlandSays and @digitalasset co-founder @wesarn_real for joining us for last night's exclusive fireside discussion. Cantor8's university partners from Cambridge, Oxford, and Imperial College asked some incredible questions about @CantonNetwork and the future of institutional blockchain more broadly. We hope very much to have you again, Eric. Maybe next time in person! [Images: @camblockchains @iclblockchain @imperialaisoc]

Exclusive Fireside Discussion: Eric Saraniecki We are proud to be joined by @wesarn_real, tomorrow evening, for an exclusive fireside discussion with Cantor8’s network of university partners - across Cambridge University, Oxford University, and Imperial College London. Who is Eric Saraniecki…? Eric is one of blockchain’s single most successful entrepreneurs and builders. After co-founding multi-billion dollar market maker @CumberlandSays, Eric went on to become a co-founder at @digitalasset and @CantonNetwork itself - the world’s leading blockchain by way of institutional adoption, made possible by its in-built privacy and compliance features. As a result of his achievements, Eric is the ultimate authority on both Canton itself, and the institutional future of blockchain technology. Though the event itself is open only to students and alumni from… @camblockchains @iclblockchain @imperialaisoc @blockchainox … we’ll be sharing recorded highlights and clips shortly after. So stay tuned for exclusive insights.

Introducing OpenEdison by @edison_watch, the AI Agent Firewall Agents + Tools/MCP = Data leak risk OpenEdison is an OSS firewall that deterministically blocks data exfiltration & dangerous agent action, even if jailbroken. 👇 comment your MCP use, I'll dm how risky your use is
Eito Miyamura | 🇯🇵🇬🇧@Eito_Miyamura

We got ChatGPT to leak your private email data 💀💀 All you need? The victim's email address. ⛓️‍💥🚩📧 On Wednesday, @OpenAI added full support for MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools in ChatGPT. Allowing ChatGPT to connect and read your Gmail, Calendar, Sharepoint, Notion, and more, invented by @AnthropicAI But here's the fundamental problem: AI agents like ChatGPT follow your commands, not your common sense. And with just your email, we managed to exfiltrate all your private information. Here's how we did it: 1. The attacker sends a calendar invite with a jailbreak prompt to the victim, just with their email. No need for the victim to accept the invite. 2. Waited for the user to ask ChatGPT to help prepare for their day by looking at their calendar 3. ChatGPT reads the jailbroken calendar invite. Now ChatGPT is hijacked by the attacker and will act on the attacker's command. Searches your private emails and sends the data to the attacker's email. For now, OpenAI only made MCPs available in "developer mode", and requires manual human approvals for every session, but decision fatigue is a real thing, and normal people will just trust the AI without knowing what to do and click approve, approve, approve. Remember that AI might be super smart, but can be tricked and phished in incredibly dumb ways to leak your data. ChatGPT + Tools poses a serious security risk
