๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ Chinaโ€™s Ministry of State Security has issued a warning: the collection of biometric data poses a threat not only to personal privacy but also to national security.

As an example, they mention a foreign project that scans peopleโ€™s irises in exchange for tokens โ€” almost certainly referring to Worldcoin.

The risks are serious: an iris is as unique as a fingerprint and canโ€™t be โ€œchangedโ€ if compromised. Leaked data could enable identity theft, biometric hacking, and even espionage.

Authorities urge citizens not to share their biometrics unless absolutely necessary and to report any suspicious initiatives. Worldcoin is already under investigation in several countries.

๐Ÿช™ On August 6, the Ethereum network recorded 1.87 million transactions โ€” a near-record figure, approaching the all-time high of 1.96 million set in January 2024.

The surge in activity was primarily driven by increased transaction volumes involving stablecoins USDC and USDT, as well as heightened usage of the decentralized exchange Uniswap.

๐Ÿช™ The CTO of Ripple called the XRP Ledger a fully decentralized network, despite ongoing criticism from the community.

As Schwartz explained, the key factor is not the number of validators (there are only 187), but the distribution of nodes among independent operators โ€” according to him, Ripple supports only one of the 35 validators (less than 1% of the total network). All significant protocol changes require approval from 80% of participants.

We physically cannot block any transaction or change the rules of the game unilaterally.

๐Ÿšฌ Investment bank Salomon Brothers has claimed rights to "abandoned" Bitcoin wallets by sending notifications via OP_RETURN transactions on the blockchain.

The move is based on the legal doctrine of abandonment, which treats assets untouched for 14 years as ownerless. Wallet owners have 90 days to prove ownership through a transaction or by submitting a form on the bankโ€™s website.

The initiative has sparked controversy, as it could set a dangerous precedent for legitimizing claims to othersโ€™ assets. It remains unclear how the bank plans to access the funds if owners do not respond.
