๐Ÿค‘ Bitcoin researchers propose quantum fix that would not crowd out transactions

Blockstream researchers published a proposal for SHRINCS, a way of signing bitcoin transactions that would hold up against quantum computers, which could otherwise work backwards from a public key on the blockchain to the private key controlling the coins.

Post-quantum signatures standardized by the U.S. NIST can be dozens of times larger than the signatures Bitcoin uses today, and Bitcoin blocks have limited space, so larger signatures leave room for fewer transactions.

๐Ÿ”œ Blockstream estimated that Bitcoin could process around 6.5 transactions per second if every transaction used today's compact Schnorr signatures, falling to about 0.36 with SLH-DSA, the hash-based scheme NIST has standardized.

๐Ÿ”œ SHRINCS gets that back to roughly three transactions per second. Its signatures start at about 324 bytes, compared to 64 for Schnorr, growing by around 16 bytes each time a key is used, with the configuration reaching three transactions per second using 580-byte signatures.

โ—๏ธJonas Nick, who designed SHRINCS with fellow Blockstream researcher Mikhail Kudinov, called it the first concrete post-quantum signature proposal designed specifically for Bitcoin. He added that it is not intended to be Bitcoin's final signature system.

Lab-made DNA can store memory like a flash drive
August 24, 2026

The new device combines synthetic DNA and a semiconductor to create an efficient memory resistor, or 'memristor.'

Our DNA stores a remarkable amount of information. A single gram contains about 215 million gigabytes of data on everything from our eye color to the shape of our feet. Now, scientists are harnessing this storage power to make a low-power memory device. 

The technology combines synthetic DNA and a semiconductor to create a memory resistor, or โ€œmemristor.โ€ It can store and process information in the same place. According to the team, the device uses 100 times less power while storing more than traditional tools like flash drives. The memristor is described in a study published in the the journal Advanced Functional Materials

๐Ÿง‘โ€โš–๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump Signs Order Establishing United States Space Academy

President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to create a Presidential Commission to begin the process of establishing a new federal academy that will prepare the next generation of Americans to advance our Nationโ€™s interests in space.

๐ŸŸ The Order establishes the Presidential Commission on the U.S. Space Academy, chaired by the NASA Administrator.

๐ŸŸ The Commission will advise and assist the President on establishing the U.S. Space Academy, a proposed NASA-led federal academy dedicated to combining rigorous technical education with leadership development, discipline, and a durable commitment to public service.

Space is a critical domain for American national security, economic growth, scientific discovery, and technological innovation. American superiority in space depends not only on our technology, but on the strength, skill, and character of the Americans who explore, secure, and build the industries critical to it. ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿช™ Man becomes overnight millionaire after being reunited with ยฃ3.3m lost Bitcoin after 12 years

Chris's journey started in 2011, when a friend who was โ€œseriously into sharesโ€ told him that Bitcoin was going to be a โ€œmassive thing,โ€ and eventually convinced him to invest. He โ€œcautiouslyโ€ bought ยฃ1,500 worth of the cryptocurrency, and โ€œwithin weeks it was creeping up,โ€ Chris remembers.

Chris, who wants to remain anonymous, lost access to his digital wallet containing about ยฃ4,000 worth of Bitcoin when the trading platform Intersango went bust in 2014. At the time, the site had more than 5,000 accounts.

After several failed attempts to make contact with the company over the years, Chris resigned himself to having lost the cryptocurrency. But earlier this year he made one more attempt, enlisting the help of lawyers to prove he owned dozens of the "lost" Bitcoin; within months, the coins were returned to him - and are now worth around ยฃ3.3 million. ๐Ÿ’ธ

๐Ÿค‘ XRP treasury firm Evernorth says SEC registration now effective, clearing way for Nasdaq listing

Evernorth Holdings, Inc. announced that the SEC has declared its S-4 registration statement effective, allowing progress toward a public listing.

โ—๏ธThe SEC application involves Evernorth's proposed business combination with Armada Acquisition Corp. II, a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), through which the firm plans to list on the Nasdaq.

Evernorth is a digital asset treasury company designed as a regulated vehicle for public market investors seeking exposure to XRP. It aims to actively deploy capital into XRP-based infrastructure and execute treasury strategies to grow its XRP-per-share. ๐Ÿš€

"We plan to enter public markets as blockchain utility continues to grow, and we believe institutional finance will increasingly be built on-chain," โ€” said Evernorth Founder and CEO Asheesh Birla. "Evernorth is designed to accelerate XRP's role in that work."


Evernorth said the SPAC merger is expected to close in late Q3 or early Q4 of this year, subject to shareholder approval. Its investors include Ripple, Arrington Capital, SBI Group, Pantera Capital, Kraken, and GSR, among others.

โš”๏ธ More Americans oppose police license plate cameras than support them: survey

The growing backlash against surveillance companies like Flock may have reached a tipping point. A new survey has found that more Americans oppose these surveillance cameras than support them.

๐Ÿ“ According to a new YouGov survey of 20,000 people across the U.S. 46% of respondents opposed the companyโ€™s surveillance cameras in their communities, while 38% supported them. This is a reversal from last year, when the majority of survey respondents said they were in favor. The survey also reported that more respondents said the surveillance would not make them feel any safer.
