Device key theft forces Keystone to destroy nearly 19,000 wallets
Keystone to scrap 19,000 wallets after key leak; Foundation Passport also hit by data breach.
After a PHP exploit took down government and hospital sites, Bitcoin Magazine's Shinobi discussed why it happened, AI's role, and whether Bitcoin is exposed.
Across France and Finland, government portals are down, as are Dutch hospital websites. Cloudflare has also registered attack traffic, while Britain’s National Cyber Security Centre has advised organizations to disconnect systems if they cannot patch quickly. Bitcoin Magazine technical editor Shinobi, speaking with Grace Remington and Sean Hagan, explained what went wrong in PHP, why memory-management errors are the most common security weakness, and how an AI that discovered the flaw in hours accelerates the pace of hacking without changing its fundamental nature. He also tackled the question every Bitcoiner is asking: is Bitcoin exposed?
