Urgent Alert For Apple Mac Users: Your Cryptos Could Be At Risk

bitcoinist.com - 周五, 03/22/2024 - 18:00

A newly identified vulnerability in Apple’s M-series processors could have dire implications for crypto users, with the potential to compromise the private keys essential for securing digital assets. This flaw, which resides deep within the microarchitecture of these chips, was first reported by Ars Technica and detailed in a paper published by a collective of researchers from top US universities.

Mac Users Beware: This Is Crucial For Crypto Owners

The vulnerability stems from a side channel in the chip’s data memory-dependent prefetcher (DMP), a mechanism designed to enhance computing efficiency. However, this feature inadvertently allows for the extraction of secret keys during cryptographic operations, a process that is fundamental to the security of cryptocurrencies and other digital transactions.

“The DMP […] uses the data values in order to make predictions […] if a data value ‘looks like’ a pointer, it will be treated as an ‘address’ […] the data from this ‘address’ will be brought to the cache, leaking over cache side channels,” the researchers explained, underscoring the inadvertent risk posed by this hardware optimization.

Dubbed “GoFetch” by its discoverers, this attack method does not require administrative access, raising alarms about the ease with which bad actors could exploit this vulnerability.

According to the team, “We don’t care about the data value being prefetched, but the fact that the intermediate data looked like an address is visible via a cache channel and is sufficient to reveal the secret key over time.” This discovery is particularly concerning for cryptocurrency holders, as private keys are the linchpin of security for digital wallets and transactions.

The implications of GoFetch are vast, affecting not only traditional encryption protocols but also those designed to be resistant against quantum computing attacks. This puts a wide array of cryptographic keys at risk, including RSA and Diffie-Hellman, along with post-quantum algorithms like Kyber-512 and Dilithium-2.

The researchers reported that “The GoFetch app requires less than an hour to extract a 2048-bit RSA key and a little over two hours to extract a 2048-bit Diffie-Hellman key,” highlighting the efficiency and danger of this attack vector.

Mitigation of this vulnerability poses a significant challenge due to its hardware-based nature. While software-based defenses can be developed, they often come at the cost of degraded performance, particularly on devices with older M-series chips.

“For developers of cryptographic software running on M1 and M2 processors […] they will have to employ other defenses, almost all of which come with significant performance penalties,” the researchers noted, indicating a difficult road ahead for both developers and users.

Apple has yet to make a public statement regarding the GoFetch findings, leaving the tech community and crypto users eagerly awaiting a response. In the meantime, the researchers advise end users to look out for software updates that specifically address this vulnerability.

Given the manual and slow process required to assess an implementation’s vulnerability, the crypto community is faced with a period of uncertainty and heightened risk.

At press time, the Bitcoin price stood at $63,396, down 5.1% in the last 24 hours.

Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson Unveils Predictions For 2030

bitcoinist.com - 周五, 03/22/2024 - 17:00

Founder of Cardano, Charles Hoskinson has boldly predicted a revolutionary advancement in the landscape of computational power. His forecast anticipates a remarkable leap forward in machine learning capabilities in the next few years.

Machine Learning Breakthrough Expected By 2030

In a recent X (formerly Twitter) post, Hoskinson declared that by the end of the decade, it would be possible to run machine learning models 1,000 times more powerful than Mixtral on a standard gaming Personal Computer (PC). The Cardano founder’s statement implies a substantial improvement in the capabilities of handling complex computational tasks in the realm of machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

According to the crypto founder, this technological innovation will only be possible with specialized hardware and optimization techniques. By leveraging these advanced technologies, the computational power of gaming PCs is potentially set to rise to unexpected levels, enabling them to effectively handle tasks previously reserved for high-performance systems. 

Hoskinson’s prediction ushers in a potential for improved accessibility to computational power, with its implications becoming far-reaching, as various industries would potentially benefit from its applications. The Cardano founder’s proclamation also comes at a time when technological innovation and advancement, particularly in the fields of AI and machine learning are growing rapidly. 

In the advent that his predictions come to fruition, the boundaries of computational power would effectively be breached, driving innovation on a global scale and unlocking potential benefits that could come from harnessing immense computational power on consumer-grade hardware. 

Cardano Founder Excludes ADA In Projections

While making his predictions for 2030, Hoskinson failed to provide any personal projections on the future outlook of Cardano’s native token, ADA. The crypto founder has recently been focusing on the transformative capabilities of Artificial Intelligence and machine learning models within the industry. 

At the time of writing the price of ADA is $0.64, marking a 10.05% decline over the past week, according to CoinMarketCap. While other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) have experienced bullish rallies, ADA has remained relatively subdued.

Although Hoskinson has not provided a price forecast for Cardano, other crypto analysts have stepped in to fill the gap. According to popular crypto analyst, Ali Martinez, the price of ADA is expected to reach $1.70 following a period of consolidation between the range of $0.55 to $0.80 in the upcoming weeks.

The crypto analyst has predicted that after the upswing to $1.70, Cardano could experience a significant breakout to $5. This surge would surpass the cryptocurrency’s previous all-time high of $3.10 in 2021.

Bitcoin ETF Alert: Analyst Issues Major Warning – Brace For Impact

bitcoinist.com - 周五, 03/22/2024 - 14:30

Samson Mow, a well-known Bitcoin advocate, has expressed his belief that the latest outflows will eventually reverse, cautioning the crypto community to “plan accordingly.”

Responding to concerns raised about potential decreases in Bitcoin’s price due to negative market sentiment, Mow emphasized the fundamental drivers of the leading cryptocurrency, highlighting its ultimate scarcity and unlimited demand.

Bitcoin Will Prevail, Mow Says

He dismissed market sentiment as a significant concern, suggesting that Bitcoin’s intrinsic qualities will prevail.

Amid these developments, spot-based Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have experienced significant outflows, sparking concerns within the cryptocurrency community.

Over the course of just three days this week, spot ETFs witnessed staggering outflows amounting to over $700 million. BlackRock’s IBIT, the largest Bitcoin ETF, has also experienced a notable decline in daily inflows.

All #Bitcoin ETF outflows will eventually become inflows. Plan accordingly.

— Samson Mow (@Excellion) March 21, 2024

Once the leader in the market, it has seen its daily inflow plummet to $49 million, marking the lowest amount recorded in the past weeks. This decline in inflows adds to the growing concerns surrounding the state of Bitcoin ETFs.

A key factor driving investors to exit Grayscale is the company’s higher fees when compared to its competitors in the ETF market. Lower fees offered by other providers have enticed investors away from Grayscale, leading to the substantial outflows witnessed recently.

Experts attribute these outflows largely to a massive withdrawal of BTC from Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), which has been plagued by consistent outflows ever since the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) allowed the conversion of GBTC into a spot ETF.

Factors Contributing To The Outflows

Moreover, the SEC’s approval of the launch of 10 spot Bitcoin ETFs on January 11 further contributed to the outflows. In addition to his comments on ETFs, Mow also shared his views on the potential approval of ETFs based on the Ethereum spot trading price.

He believes that Ethereum (ETH) should be classified as a security and expects the SEC to eventually deem it as such. He criticizes the SEC’s approval of ETH futures ETFs, considering it a significant mistake.

Mow’s warning regarding the potential reversal of outflows adds an element of uncertainty to the situation. As the cryptocurrency community grapples with these developments, industry experts will closely monitor the market to assess if Mow’s prediction of a reversal comes to fruition or if further challenges lie ahead.

While the future of Bitcoin ETFs remains uncertain, the resilience of the cryptocurrency market has been tested time and again. Investors and enthusiasts will closely keep an eye on the developments in the coming days, hoping for stability and renewed confidence in the digital asset space.

Ripple CEO Predicts Setback For US SEC In Ethereum Case, Similar To XRP

bitcoinist.com - 周五, 03/22/2024 - 13:30

The legal battle between the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ethereum (ETH) has transformed into an intriguing case within the entire cryptocurrency landscape, with several experts predicting possible outcomes regarding the dispute.

Ripple CEO Warns US SEC’s Inevitable Defeat Against Ethereum

As the battle wages on, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ripple Labs Brad Garlinghouse, has revealed his optimistic insights on the case, while sharing a daring prediction in favor of the Ethereum ecosystem. His positive insights came in light of reports that the SEC is attempting to classify Ethereum “as a security” through its legal dispute with the digital asset.

Brad Garlinghouse has predicted that the US regulatory watchdog is most likely to “lose its war against Ethereum” – the second largest cryptocurrency asset. According to Garlinghouse, the Commission’s several “attempts to include the cryptocurrency industry in legal battles have resulted in severe court losses” over time.

As a result, the agency is now “lagging behind its foreign counterparts” and “competing with other regulators” such as the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

The Ripple CEO then posed a question, “When would the SEC realize that it would not be able to continue fighting to categorize Ethereum as a security, as it did with XRP?”

It is noteworthy that Coinbase submitted self-certifications with the CFTC on March 7, which could pave the way for Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Litecoin (LTC) futures Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), if the CTFC has no complaints against it.

Consequently, the SEC’s prospects of overturning the “Programmatic Sales of XRP” ruling might be impacted by the categorization of these aforementioned tokens as commodities by the CFTC. This could be one of the reasons why the SEC could be fighting the CFTC.

Ripple’s Partial Victories Against The SEC

Ripple first secured a partial win in its lawsuit with the agency when Judge Analisa Torres declared in July last year that programmatic sales of XRP do not meet the requirements of the third prong of the Howey Test. Also, three months later, the SEC’s request for an interlocutory appeal against the programmatic sales order was denied by the US Judge.

Due to the order, the SEC will be unable to file an appeal until the conclusion of the ongoing SEC v. Ripple lawsuit. It is believed that the resolution of this dispute may have a profound impact on the US regulatory landscape and the cryptocurrency landscape as a whole.

The long-running legal dispute between Ripple and the US SEC began in 2020 when the Commission accused Ripple of selling XRP to US investors as an unregistered security. However, the lengthy battle is slowly approaching its climax as the grand trial is scheduled to take place by April 23.

Crypto In The Spotlight: Estonia Greenlights Regulation Bill

bitcoinist.com - 周五, 03/22/2024 - 11:43

Estonia, a nation long known for its embrace of digital innovation, is revamping its cryptocurrency regulations to create a more robust and transparent market. The Estonian government recently approved a bill that will significantly increase oversight of cryptocurrency service providers, bringing them under the stricter purview of the Financial Supervision Authority (FSA).

This shift marks a significant change from the previous system, where the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) primarily focused on Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance. The FSA, on the other hand, will implement a comprehensive regulatory framework, including stricter licensing requirements and the power to impose hefty fines of up to €5 million for AML violations. This move signals Estonia’s strong stance against financial malpractices within the sector.

Aligning With Europe: A Unified Approach

The new bill is not just about tightening internal controls; it also seeks to harmonize Estonian regulations with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework. This alignment signifies Estonia’s commitment to creating a consistent approach to crypto regulation across EU member states. With MiCA set to take effect in early 2025, Estonia is taking a proactive step to ensure a smooth transition for both businesses and regulators.

Balancing Innovation With Security

Estonia has a well-deserved reputation for being crypto-friendly. In 2017, it established itself as a haven for digital currency companies by simplifying registration procedures and fostering a welcoming legal environment. However, the 2020 revocation of numerous licenses due to non-compliance highlighted the need for stricter oversight. The current bill represents a measured approach, aiming to strike a balance between encouraging innovation and safeguarding the market.

A Safe Harbor For Crypto Businesses

The Estonian government seems to be sending a clear message: innovation is welcome, but responsible conduct is paramount. The new regulations, while stricter, offer a path forward for legitimate businesses. Existing crypto firms with FIU licenses will be granted a grace period until the end of 2025 to obtain FSA licenses, providing them with ample time to adapt to the new requirements.

Additionally, the bill introduces a relaxed securities prospectus obligation for companies seeking to raise capital. This move aims to make it easier and more cost-effective for businesses to secure funding, potentially benefiting not just the crypto sector but also fostering the growth of the Estonian capital market as a whole.

Estonia’s Potential As A Crypto Leader

By strengthening its regulatory framework and aligning with EU-wide standards, Estonia is positioning itself as a leader in the European crypto landscape. This measured approach, combining innovation with robust oversight, could attract businesses seeking a secure and transparent environment to operate in. With its established digital infrastructure and a government committed to responsible regulation, Estonia has the potential to become a hub for reputable crypto service providers within the European Union.

Why Now? Crypto Lawyer Uncovers Reasons For Ethereum Probe By SEC

bitcoinist.com - 周五, 03/22/2024 - 09:50

Scott Johnsson, a finance lawyer and general partner at Van Buren Capital, provided a nuanced analysis of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) motivations for launching an investigation into Ethereum and the Ethereum Foundation. His insights, shared via X on March 22, offer a deep dive into the potential motivations for the agency to probe the Swiss based Ethereum Foundation.

Johnsson began by highlighting the profound market reliance on Ethereum’s classification as a non-security, a stance historically acknowledged by the SEC and other regulatory bodies. He stressed the importance of this classification for the functioning of various market mechanisms, stating:

Paul [Grewal, Coinbase CLO] gives a good overview on the SEC’s historical acknowledgements re: ETH non-security status. This is the current landscape that the market has relied on – including the CFTC, CME, ETFs, exchanges, and investors. Reliance interests are incredibly high.

Is Thwarting The Spot Ethereum ETFs The Main Goal?

A key aspect of Johnsson’s analysis revolves around the SEC’s potential motives for reconsidering Ethereum’s status at this particular juncture. He suggests that the regulatory body is navigating a complex landscape, balancing the need to enforce securities laws with the market’s reliance on existing classifications.

“Beyond simple anti-crypto animus, it’s worth thinking about why the SEC is choosing this moment to potentially reassess ETH’s status as non-security and what may be specifically motivating them. Motive meets opportunity,” Johnsson elaborates.

He further speculates on the SEC’s strategy regarding ETH spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and its broader implications: “My view, and there are other reasonable takes, is that the SEC needs a non-correlation objection to deny ETH spot ETFs this year and has a desire to avoid undermining the args in the CB/Binance actions – together representing the two biggest crypto issues the agency is managing.”

Johnsson points out the inherent challenges in the SEC’s path, particularly maintaining a consistent approach to crypto regulation so as not to prejudice its own arguments in the cases against Coinbase and Binance. He notes, “And if the SEC learned anything from BTC ETFs, it’s to be very careful in the reasoning provided in denials and specifically that it form a coherent whole across similar orders. Grayscale won because the SEC made logical errors when approving futures and denying spot across time.”

The finance lawyer also delves into the technicalities of correlation analysis, a pivotal factor in the SEC’s decision-making process for ETF approvals. He explains, “Using the methodology I believe the SEC will rely, CME futures:spot correlation is INCREASING and the most recent periods are mostly within an acceptable range (i.e., aligning with BTC approval levels). At least based on internally run calcs.” Therefore, the SEC cannot reject a spot ETF on this basis.

Johnsson underscores the SEC’s delicate balancing act, which cannot question its previous decisions, but at the same time has to deny spot ETH ETF to satisfy its backers. He articulates, “This kills a few birds: 1) bolsters credibility for CB/Binance args, 2) denies spot ETH ETF with 2025 optionality and 3) satisfies Gary’s backers. All while avoiding (for now) blowing up CME futures, an interagency fight and invalidating futures ETFs (miring SEC in litigation).”

Earlier this month, Democratic Senators Jack Reed and Laphonza Butler called on SEC Chairman Gary Gensler to halt the approval of additional spot crypto ETFs. Senator Elizabeth Warren has also expressed strong criticism of these financial products. Last year, Butler endorsed Senator Elizabeth Warren’s contentious Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Act by co-sponsoring the bill.

At press time, ETH traded at $3,526.
