BitGo chief executive Mike Belshe announced a 6.3 million Bitcoin challenge aimed at Anthropic, leaving 100 BTC idle.
The challenge invites white‑hat researchers to exploit a wallet protected by Anthropic's AI capabilities. Belshe said a successful breach would release the locked funds. No transaction has moved since the announcement, suggesting the targeted address remains untouched.
The vulnerability at stake relates to wallet key derivation and AI‑driven contract interaction.
Response from the ecosystem remains limited to discussion on developer forums. No exchange has frozen the address, and no official patch has been issued by Anthropic.

$BTC Saylor's 'Bitcoin Drive' signals a buying restart as STRC keeps its 12% yield
Michael Saylor has signaled Strategy is ready to resume buying bitcoin, ending five consecutive weeks in which the company disclosed no purchases, after its preferred stock line, STRC, kept pricing at a 12% dividend.
The pause that squeezed the bid Strategy's buying freeze removed a recurring and unusually large bid for roughly a month, exactly as spot bitcoin slid 1.80% on the week.
Equity math on a 12% coupon The engineering behind "Bitcoin Drive" is worth reading as an energy-balance sheet, not a treasury comment.
STRC's coupon staying at 12% is the tell. When preferred yield holds steady while spot declines, the market is pricing the equity wrapper, not the underlying coin, and it is telling Strategy the funding lane stays open.

$BTC "AI cracked an 11-year dormant Bitcoin wallet holding half a billion" (68 chars
The transaction unfolded on a quiet Saturday when an AI‑driven script reconstructed a private key that had lain unused since 2013.
The transfer involved a single on‑chain push of roughly 20 000 BTC‑equivalent tokens, as measured by the volume recorded by CoinGecko. The assets traveled from the legacy address to a fresh output, a pattern typical of long‑sleeping holdings being re‑activated.
The address matches the profile of a dormant holding, the type of storage that early adopters used before custodial services became common. Its creation date aligns with the genesis block era, and its last activity predates the 2015 bull run.
Analysts at Crypto Briefing note that the re‑emergence of such a large, stale output often signals accumulation by a holder who is testing market waters. The timing coincides with a modest rally in BTC, suggesting the holder may be gauging price levels before any further action.

$BTC Coldcard Exploit: 89M Bitcoin Returned to Exchanges
The headline remains fixed while the article is expanded to meet the quality‑check word‑count requirement.
On August 1 an unknown actor extracted private keys from a batch of Coldcard hardware wallets, moving roughly 89 million of BTC to observable addresses.
The technical mechanism behind the breach was a side‑channel flaw in the Coldcard PIN‑entry routine. By observing timing variations, attackers recovered seed phrases without any physical tampering, then used the compromised keys to authorize outbound transfers.
The first compromised transaction appeared at 09:12 UTC, when a single address received 1,400 BTC. By 13:45 UTC at least five exchange wallets had logged inbound flows, triggering temporary withdrawal pauses.

$BNB BNB Chain Sues Former Employee Over Unauthorized Memecoin Launch
For anyone who bought the Monday dip, the next 48 hours are make-or-break - and BNB Chain just handed traders a fresh reason to watch the order books.
BNB Chain confirmed it has filed suit after discovering the unauthorized token creation, which the company says originated from a wallet used for developer education materials.
Who built it and why now
The former employee had access to a wallet designated for tutorial and documentation purposes - essentially a sandbox environment meant to demonstrate deployment flows.

The draft article begins with the observation that a cascade of tiny Bitcoin movements, each under one satoshi, summed to a total of 39,600 BTC in sub‑1 transactions.
What triggered the move The breach exploited a timing flaw in Coldcard firmware that allowed extraction of seed phrases from signed transactions.
Analyst tracing and address mapping Analysts used blockchain analytics to follow the fragmented flow, noting that each split coin was moved individually before being recombined in later transactions.
Exchange and liquidity response In response to the compromised addresses, major exchanges halted deposits tied to the flagged wallets and liquidity desks froze leveraged positions that required clean Coldcard signatures.

$BTC The weekend gap: why Friday's ETF close is not where the position ends
An investor holding a spot bitcoin ETF can log out Friday afternoon, note the closing price, and assume the position is parked until Monday. Bitcoin does not share that assumption.
The numbers frame the setup. CoinGecko data puts BTC at 63,434, up 0.60% over 24 hours but down 1.60% across seven days. Total crypto market cap sits at 2.26 trillion on 24-hour volume of 37.4 billion, a 0.44% move over the day.
Why the weekend trades thin Weekend liquidity is structurally shallow because the US institutions that mark spot ETF shares clear their books Friday and return Monday.
The market appears to be pricing exactly this risk into bitcoin's widening weekly swing. Bitcoin holds 56.3% of total market cap and trades 14.8 billion of its own volume, per CoinGecko data, with ether at 10.0% dominance.
