Buterin rejects AI-driven 50 percent Bitcoin crash warning, citing crypto-heavy net worth

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin (비탈릭 부테린) has pushed back against a prediction that artificial intelligence could drive Bitcoin down more than 50 percent within two years. AI risk analyst Liron Shapiro (리론 샤피로) put the probability of such a decline at 50 percent, arguing AI could undermine security assumptions by finding hard-to-detect vulnerabilities at scale. Buterin said most AI-driven security issues would be manageable and fixable, noting about 90 percent of his net worth is invested in cryptocurrencies.

Ethereum draws attention for EIP-8141 that allows gas fees without ETH

A new transaction structure has been proposed for Ethereum that would let users pay transaction fees without holding ETH, or allow applications to cover gas fees on their behalf. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said development of the Ethereum Improvement Proposal EIP-8141 has made significant progress. The proposal splits transactions into up to 64 frames, enables separation of signing and fee-paying accounts, and aims to expand flexibility while retaining existing wallet structures.

G7 urges rapid preparations for quantum computing threat; bitcoin, ethereum also on alert

A G7 cybersecurity working group urged governments and companies to immediately begin shifting to post-quantum cryptography, warning that technology threatening existing public-key systems is advancing faster than expected. It highlighted the risk of attacks that harvest encrypted data now and decrypt it later. The EU has set timelines for migration. Bitcoin is considering BIP-360, while Ethereum plans broader upgrades. Larger post-quantum signatures could raise storage, bandwidth and transaction costs.
