Hot take: states should STEAL crypto from insecure custodians operating inside their own borders.
$2 billion in crypto was stolen by North Korea in 2025. Lax security isn’t a private failure. It’s a national security risk. Every poorly protected exchange or bridge becomes low-hanging fruit for foreign adversaries, ransomware gangs, and sanctioned states.... Open Question July 29: What do we do about AI? Can we do anything? Should we?
Hey y'all, Two AI stories last week seemed made for each other: An OpenAI model hacked its way out of it's hacking test.

Or that AI will replace it almost overnight?

Ai makes mistakes a lot.

Appreciate this exchange.

Honestly, I don't know much about this area either. In a way, it makes me think about the ban on TikTok. They claimed it was a security issue. But then the ban lasted less than 24 hours? I guess I wonder what's the truth and I suppose lots of things can be true....
