@lopp @SrGarica I feel like Google Sites is use exclusively by phishers now.

@SrGarica it looks legit because it redirects to the actual phishing site that is ALSO hosted on google, via Google Sites

Tricky new phishing technique someone just tried on me: abusing an actual google recovery contact request form and stuffing it with a really long message that contains a phishing link. The true message is shoved after several pages of blank space at the bottom.

The Anchorage Digital browser extension now supports access to the Solana ecosystem through Porto. Swap, borrow, stake, bridge and deploy capital. Enterprise-grade security at every step. See it in action with @sanctumso—the infrastructure powering Solana’s top LSTs and apps.

Anchorage Digital is bringing “cashless” stablecoin reserves to @solana, redefining reserve management for institutional stablecoin issuers.

You wanted one way to move cash and crypto. You wanted high yield on your operational dollars so you're not missing out. You wanted to settle it all 24/7 with your counterparties. We listened. Onboard to @Anchorage.

One of the most consistent pieces of feedback we get from our clients is that they love our crypto custody product, and want to use Anchorage for their USD as well. Now the USD product is fully live, including earning on your deposits.

If the threshold for blue was not 50% but one person, would you be that person? What if it was two? 10?

Does it matter that any website you look at you can immediately tell if it was made by Claude? Does it change your opinion of the product?

we didn’t choose the @consensus2026 mainstage. the mainstage chose us. two weeks until we see you in Miami!

@TheDr_TheDr Apple TV or any of the other million dongles that will have better support, performance and applications anyway

@bx ?? How do you watch Netflix then

I have never once let my TV connect to my wifi. There’s just no reason.

Our first official small contribution from @Anchorage to the post quantum research corpus. We formalize existing ideas around ZK proof of ownership for a one-way “turnstile” that keeps keys safe from onspend attacks when moving to a new PQ address. 🧵 from @prasincs 👇

I'm excited to announce a new paper from @anchorage that we've been working on : "Post-Quantum Key Migration via Zero-Knowledge Proofs of Hash Preimage Knowledge." This work serves as a formalization of existing ideas for transitioning digital assets to post-quantum security, providing rigorous proofs of security for the concept. 🧵(1/7) 🔗 learn.anchorage.com/Anchorage-Digi…

@neha @conduition_io Strongly agree

This is a good high-level call to action in a post by @conduition_io on isogeny-based cryptography It comes after a fair amount of detail and math, but you can skip past that part if you're just interested in what could be done for *long-term* post-quantum Bitcoin:

@ivanmiskovic Cool and thoughtful. This headache is exactly why we built Anchorage how we did. We have already implemented and benchmarked all PQ cryptos in our HSMs.

We’re hearing the same from custodians we’re in touch with. The client demand is increasing especially since the Google Quantum AI paper dropped on March 30. On the “easier to make crypto quantum-safe than build a CRQC” point - agreed, but we challenge us to do it without forcing custodians to rebuild their signing infrastructure from scratch. Our approach: a post-quantum threshold signature scheme called Mithril (threshold ML-DSA, based on PQShield’s NIST submission) deployed as a co-signing augmentation layer. The custodian keeps their existing ECDSA MPC pipeline as a cosigner, Mithril provides the PQ threshold signing side in a dual-authorization flow. Runs in the custodian’s own VPC with no architecture replacement. The practical result: integration scope drops from a full custody rebuild (~18 months) to an augmentation deployment and it’s NIST FIPS 204 compliant from day one. Curious what questions your clients are asking most, whether it’s timeline concerns, migration complexity, or compliance readiness. Would be great to exchange knowledge ahead of your OPNEXT panel.

I just got off another call with a client wondering what they can do to keep their Bitcoin quantum safe. Billions in value is waiting on pins and needles to see how crypto will evolve to meet this challenge. Good news: it's easier to make crypto quantum-safe than it is to build a CRQC.

@EliBenSasson I know the bar at StarkWare is incredibly high. Please send your impacted engineers my way, I’d love to be able to offer them a place to do more great work.

I am sharing here a message I shared with the StarkWare team following things I said at an All Hands meeting: ======== StarkWare is adapting its strategy, with a clear goal – to lead blockchain. So far, we’ve secured our position as technology leaders: we built the best ZK proving blockchain technology. Cairo, Sierra, Post-Quantum, etc. More than anyone in the industry, StarkWare demonstrated the potential of ZK and STARK technology and has set the standard. Each and every StarkWare employee should be extremely proud. Why do we need a new strategy? We initially focused on scaling L1s, building the most advanced scaling stack. But infrastructure alone does not win the game, and although different apps demonstrate where our technology shines, we are not playing our full hand. We can do better. It is now time to convert our technological superiority into tangible revenue and significant usage, with high emphasis on products that can be powered only by our technological moat. To execute this, we must change how StarkWare operates. New focus: We're shifting from doing many things well to doing fewer things excellently. Emphasis is on things with large potential value that only we can build, that only our stack, the best in the world, can unleash and make come true. We’re adopting a new mindset: Moving fast, in small teams, doing a lot of experimentation, and being confident to rapidly iterate to find PMF. This is a mindset that differs from the way we currently operate, and it’s one that will be rewarding. It’s a bit like going back to startup mode, but taking into account all that we’ve learned from building the best infrastructure in the world. Big picture: There’s a vacuum in blockchain leadership today – this poses a challenge but also an immense opportunity for StarkWare and Starknet. We’re playing to win. More details next week. New structure: - 2 purpose-focused units, one led by Avihu and one led by Tom as general managers (GM) - Each of these two units will manage internally its dedicated BD/eng/product/GTM. Very sadly, as part of this process, we are downsizing. Our new strategy requires that we move fast, and we’re too big and too inefficient for that. So, we are making a tough but responsible decision to become smaller and more flexible. This is painful because we are parting from excellent people. I deeply appreciate each and everyone of you. We will do our best to soften this parting, in many jurisdictions going beyond what law and contract dictate. Those we’re considering parting from, will shortly receive an email invitation for a 1-1 meeting with management. I know this is difficult news, and I wish we could have avoided it but our commitment to our mission dictates that we make it. For those staying, we recognize this is a dramatic change and we’ll talk to each of you as well, but will do so after talking to those affected most by this change. To all, we are available to discuss whatever is on your mind, during the hearings and outside of them. I myself am available over the next days for each and every one of you, simply step in, write, or call me. I want to hear you if you want to be heard. Summary: We built the best, safest, most battle-tested ZK tech in blockchain. We’ve redefined blockchain using our technology, but that’s not enough. I’m anticipating with confidence our next chapter, in which we use it to advance exciting novel products that generate revenue and which cannot be built on other blockchains today. It’s a huge challenge, that requires a large and painful change, and will require immense effort. I’m confident that our reorganized structure, focus and strategy, position us well to go after this ambitious goal, winning and leading blockchain. Let’s get to it.

And when I say “you” obviously I mean your claw.

If you want me to read your amazing insightful article that Claude only “helped” you write, just do me a favor and run a “remove all emdashes” before you hit publish. Truly it’s all I ask so that I don’t feel like I’m filtering your unadulterated AI slop.

If institutions are going on chain they need to use dApps the way everyone else does. Does your bank have a browser extension?
