Security experts warn: AI may trigger a crisis in crypto and banking hacking
CryptoWorld News reports that security experts warn that advanced AI could trigger a hacking crisis for cryptocurrencies and banks.
The four-year hidden vulnerability discovered in Zcash was revealed and fixed by Shielded Labs using Anthropic Opus 4.8; if left undiscovered, attackers could infinitely forge tokens, causing Zcash to drop approximately 38% within 24 hours.
Dragonfly Capital partner Haseeb Qureshi states that AI discovering vulnerabilities is a good thing and will promote the use of formal verification to improve code security.
