Some people are way too excited about AI agents doing formal verification! 😅 Why would agents go through the trouble of finding and proving meaningful specifications when they could just cheat by assuming false, exploiting a soundness bug, or proving a complex tautology?

June 18, we're opening the evening with our @BerBlockWeek happy hour in collaboration with @ETHGlobal. AI in security audits and agentic systems, a fireside chat with @sick_nerdballer and @phipsae (@ethereumfndn) about trust assumptions and the cost of getting AI wrong in security. @w3_hub | 7:20 PM 🔗luma.com/eth-happyhour-bbw26

A closer look at how AI is rapidly changing the cybersecurity threat landscape: "With the further proliferation of all these security flaws and the ability for people to write exploits, many more companies will be subject to attacks that involve zero days over the next 12 months - companies will have to respond at machine speed to intrusions."
Mythos (and other leading models) have gotten attention for their impact on cybersecurity. I asked @dguido about how companies will need to adapt. "It means that companies have to respond at machine speed to these intrusions because that LLM is going to be seeking out all these little opportunities, these chinks in your armor in order to further burrow itself into your company."

We're hosting a private dinner during @BerBlockWeek. Researchers, founders, CTOs, and protocol leads at one table. An evening of security conversations on the shifting threat landscape and the growing role of AI in it. Gaps, tooling, and what good security thinking looks like now. Wednesday, June 17. Few seats, link below.

TheDAO's Ethereum Security QF Round matching funds have officially been distributed 🛡️ What started as a 500 ETH matching pool from @thedaofund ultimately grew to 638 ETH thanks to support from across the ecosystem. 134 projects have now received funding to continue their work strengthening Ethereum security. A huge thank you to every donor, contributor, and project that made this round possible.

.@blockchainssc recently released the Smart Contract Security Standard. Our @sick_nerdballer contributed to the specification alongside other security experts. A chain-agnostic framework covering the full lifecycle of smart contract security: development, testing, deployment, and governance. Full release and specification in the comments.
Breaking News in Blockchain: The Blockchain Security Standards Council (BSSC) has officially released the new Smart Contract Security Standard, alongside major updates to its Node Operation Standard and General Security and Privacy Guidelines. These updates provide clearer, more practical security guidance across smart contracts, infrastructure operations, and blockchain system design. BSSC's newest standard strengthens how organizations build and secure decentralized systems.

Consensys Diligence and Chonky, our AI tool, on @_choppingblock. Thank you @ethereumJoseph for the mention. "The Consensys Diligence team built their own AI and got a swarm of agents running on the protocols they're working on. Our ecosystem is composable - you have to look in the cracks between protocols and find where the vulnerabilities are" Built on seven years of audit experience, Chonky was designed language-agnostic from the ground up for more complex security problems: composability, multi-layer reasoning, and vulnerability coverage at scale.
.@ethereumJoseph told us not to call it the Second Foundation but also told us SharpLink, BitMine, and ConsenSys are becoming Ethereum's "decentralized commercialization engines" sooooo Timestamps 00:00 Intro 01:06 Saylor Sells BTC & Market Panic 05:07 STRC Death Spiral & DAT Risks 07:07 Ethereum Foundation Exodus & CROPS 13:04 The "Not Second Foundation" Debate 17:58 Quantum Q-Day: 50% by 2032 23:47 Is All of DeFi Unsafe? 31:11 ZK Composability & Bridge-Free Architecture 34:19 Security Deployment Lag & AI Arms Race 40:18 Anti-Fragility & Formal Verification 47:36 Zama USDC Freeze & Privacy vs Courts 50:33 CFTC Perps Approval & Hyperliquid at $75 55:53 Hyperliquid's Distribution Flywheel 01:00:46 Joe Lubin's Ethereum Bull Case 🔥Stay updated with all the latest hot takes by following and subscribing to @_ChoppingBlock and @unchained_pod! 🎥 YouTube: youtu.be/hf_6Ge1m-OU 🎧 Spotify: bit.ly/3wiIOyy 🍎 Apple: bit.ly/3w9HQ7J 🎙 Podcast Home: choppingblock.xyz

This @BerBlockWeek, we're co-hosting an evening on AI and security at @w3hub with @ETHGlobal. Happy hour with good food and drinks, conversations on what our researchers are seeing in agentic security practice, a fireside with the @ethereumfndn dAI team in devil's advocate mode, and a live demo of our latest tooling. Thursday, June 18 at w3.hub. RSVP below.

SEAL Certifications are live, and Consensys Diligence is among the first accredited firms. @_SEAL_Org built a certification standard that specifically addresses failures happening outside the code: multisig ops, incident response, and other operational security areas. We're proud to have been part of the pilot: our @sick_nerdballer tested the framework during its initial phase. An important contribution to maturing Ethereum security. Read more about the auditors certification in the comments below:
It's finally happening! SEAL Certifications are now open for business. 🎉

Consensys Diligence is heading to @BerBlockWeek 🇩🇪 Expect conversations on the future of on-chain security, AI in audit workflows, how smart contract risk is evolving in 2026, and how leading teams approach security infrastructure at scale. Come find us in Berlin: @T_Birb, @sick_nerdballer, @KotyaSec and @DavitBuilderD

Bridge contracts are among the highest-risk attack surfaces in DeFi and RWA tokenization. We recently collaborated with @strato_net to review their bridge infrastructure as part of our work on continuous AI-augmented auditing 🤝 @sick_nerdballer analyzed STRATO’s custom VM and Solidity contracts together, as most findings lie at the system integration layer. Glad to see STRATO addressing the findings with urgency and making further improvements following our audit.

In an age of AI threats, you need AI-based security. We've been proud to work with @ConsensysAudits to deploy their AI-auditing system for STRATO. Read more about the process and how AI-powered security will save DeFi: strato.nexus/blog/blockapps-…
JUST IN: Binance says it prevented over $10,000,000,000 in fraud using 100 AI models.

Fuzzing for ZK Systems qualified for 5.4 ETH in matching funds at @thedaofund's Ethereum Security QF Round👏 These funds go directly to open-source ZK fuzzing R&D, led by ETHSecurity Badge holder @vwuestholz and @mchri5taki5 (@tu_wien). Thank you to everyone who donated. We really appreciate your contributions. Congratulations to all the other talented teams in the round!

🛡️ The results for the @thedaofund’s Ethereum Security QF Round are LIVE! This historic round is closing with a HUGE last minute contribution: @wintermute_t has added $200K to the matching pool 🔥 Wintermute is a well known liquidity provider, and one of the leading supporters of Ethereum security, in fact exactly a year ago today they donated $1M to @_SEAL_Org. This year they teamed up with TheDAO, @Quantstamp & several other community partners to allocate over $1.6M worth of funding to Ethereum Security Public Goods 👇

Privacy is integral to Ethereum's future, and ZK is the tech the ecosystem will rely on for it. @ConsensysAudits works on novel fuzzing methods to make ZK as secure as it needs to be to host that future. Learn more: youtube.com/watch?v=51rQFZDl… Support: qf.giveth.io/project/fuzzing…
