CryptoBilis update We've been made aware, through responsible disclosure, of a single hardware implant in a Trezor Safe 5 device bought from the reseller CryptoBilis in August 2026. No CryptoBilis buyer has reported a loss of funds to us. IMPORTANT: If you bought a Trezor from CryptoBilis from March 2026 onwards, we know this is unsettling. Here’s what to do: Already using it? Move your funds to a newly created wallet with a new seed as soon as possible. Do not reuse the old seed in any wallet, hardware or software. If you don’t have another secure hardware wallet available, we recommend temporarily migrating your funds to a software wallet or an exchange you are familiar with. Not set up yet? Don’t set it up, and never enter your existing wallet backup on it. We haven’t received the device to confirm this report, but based on the customer’s description, we’re treating it as credible and sharing it now so customers who purchased a Trezor via CryptoBilis can secure their funds as a precaution. Our security team will examine the device as soon as it arrives. On October 9, 2026, we removed CryptoBilis as a reseller following reports of tampered Ledger devices sold through it. Since then, we have been inspecting Trezor devices that customers bought from CryptoBilis and have found no signs of tampering on any of the four devices we’ve received so far. NEVER share your wallet backup (recovery phrase) with anyone. Trezor Support will never ask for it. If you are affected by this incident, please keep your CryptoBilis device and contact Support to receive a new Trezor hardware wallet: trezor.io/support#open-chat We're investigating and will post updates here as soon as we know more. Thank you to the customer who reported this through our responsible disclosure program, and to @SEAL_911 for working alongside our teams on the response. Reports and engagement like this help us protect everyone else. For more information, visit our blog: trezor.io/blog/news/implant-…

Binance's initial investigation suggests that the security incident may involve a compromised DevOps engineer’s laptop, which allowed an attacker to gain access to a service container and submit unauthorized withdrawal transactions. We have found no evidence of any wallet private key leak. We will share a detailed technical post-mortem once the investigation is complete and the facts are fully verified. The estimated total impact sits at around $6.3B. We have worked with blockchain partners to freeze affected assets, with ~$3 billion frozen on-chain so far. Binance will cover all losses from the SAFU fund and the company’s funds. User funds are safe. We will also publish an updated Proof of Reserves once the remediation is complete. As an immediate precaution, Binance has: - temporarily suspended deposits and withdrawals while security checks are completed; - revoked the affected address authorisation; - engaged law enforcement and blockchain intelligence partners to trace and recover funds. Our teams are working around the clock to resolve this issue safely and thoroughly. We are working closely with our law enforcement partners to confirm the identity of these criminals and bring them to justice. Please rely only on official Binance channels for updates. Please feel free to contact Binance Customer Support if you have any further questions. binance.com/en/support/annou…

Good conversations about Bitcoin shouldn't happen only online. There's value in sitting across from someone, exchanging ideas, asking questions & learning from different perspectives. That's what the Bitcoin Ikorodu Meetup is about. Here's an invitation to our next gathering🧵

Thank you @LuganoPlanB! What a fantastic conference! It's great seeing Bitcoin Circular Economies represented every year! Project founder @vryfokkenou answered this question in his keynote yesterday: "Why should you care about Bitcoin Circular Economies?" In short: Because BCEs: - demonstrate that Bitcoin is freedom money. - can produce factories that onboard thousands. - educate without complexity. - prove we don't really need stablecoins. - cut through the crypto hype. - introduce spending as a gateway to saving. - demonstrate that Bitcoin is already useful as an MoE. @MoneyBadgerPay @PoW_Checkbot @BitcoinUbuntu

New release: Electrum 4.8.3. This release fixes a critical security issue, so we urge all users to upgrade. A description of the vulnerability will be published later today. (note: Windows Defender may show a warning about ZXing.dll, ignore that, it is a false positive)

Bitcoin Optech newsletter #428 is here: - describes a design for a single-issuer layer 2 whose users can redeem their bitcoin onchain without the issuer’s cooperation - summarizes a proposal for including hash preimages in output script descriptors. - summarizes changes to services/client software - Optech Newsletter #428 Podcast bitcoinops.org/en/newsletter…

Have you ever looked at a Bitcoin Circular Economy project posting about adoption on X, and wondered: "Is this even real?" Well, so have we. Which is why, since early 2025, we've been working on something that helps to answer that question. powbot.africa Built by @BitcoinUbuntu, the @PoW_Checkbot is a Real-Time Automated Proof-of-Work Verification system for Bitcoin Circular Economy projects. It's built to remove some trust, by giving projects the opportunity to verify that the adoption they claim, is in fact real. Go check it out! powbot.africa
