The system would use zero-knowledge proofs and secure environments (MPC/TEEs) to protect voter identity and sensitive data while preventing coercion and bribery.
Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin proposed a technical overhaul of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), calling for the use of personal artificial intelligence agents to privately cast votes on behalf of users and help scale digital governance.
The plan, published on social media platform X one month after Buterin criticized DAOs for drifting into low participation and power centralization, aims to shift users away from delegating votes to large token holders.
Instead, individuals would deploy their own AI model, trained on their past messages and stated values, to vote on the thousands of decisions DAOs face.
There are many thousands of decisions to make, involving many domains of expertise, and most people don't have the time or skill to be experts in even one, let alone all of them.” Buterin wrote. “So what can we do? We use personal LLMs to solve the attention problem.”
First is privacy of content, ensuring sensitive data remains confidential. AI agents would operate within secure environments such as multi-party computation (MPC) or trusted execution environments (TEEs), enabling them to process private data without leaking it to the public blockchain.
Second is the anonymity of the participant. Buterin called for the use of zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), a cryptographic tool that allows users to prove they’re eligible to vote without revealing their wallet address or how they voted.Second is the anonymity of the participant.

This guards against coercion, bribery, and whale watching, where smaller voters mimic the decisions of large token holders
These AI stewards would automate routine governance participation and flag only key issues for human review.
To filter out low-quality or spammy proposals, an emerging problem as generative AI floods open forums, Buterin suggests launching prediction markets. In these, agents could bet on the likelihood that proposals would be accepted.
Good bets would earn payouts, incentivizing valuable contributions while penalizing noise.
Buterin also called for privacy-preserving tools such as multi-party computation and trusted execution environments, enabling AI agents to assess sensitive data, such as job applications or legal disputes, without exposing it on a public blockchain.

Legislators must choose whether America leads the next generation of finance or watches from the sidelines.
In Washington, the safest vote is often no vote at all, and the most convenient timeline is "next session." But when it comes to the future of banking, financial markets and financial services, inaction is unacceptable. The United States needs crypto regulatory clarity to compete and succeed in the digitally networked financial system of the 21st Century.
The Senate is today at a crossroads on market structure legislation—policy designed to bring order to digital asset innovation, an increasingly important component of global finance. Failing to codify the "rules of the road" doesn't just stall crypto; it invites regulatory chaos that harms banks and consumers alike, saps economic dynamism and forces innovation to drift offshore. Congress must choose whether America leads the next generation of finance or watches from the sidelines.Legislators must choose whether America leads the next generation of finance or watches from the sidelines.
The current stalemate centers on a perceived conflict between banks and crypto platforms regarding interest yield and rewards on stablecoins—an issue already addressed by the GENIUS Act, signed into law by President Trump last year. The law permits crypto companies to offer rewards and incentives to customers for holding and using stablecoins made available by separate providers. Banks counter that such reward structures closely resemble traditional bank savings and checking products and, if left unchecked, could shift customer balances away from insured deposits without the same prudential requirements.
Framed this way, the disagreement carries more weight than it should. Yield and rewards are questions of design within a payments framework, not questions of systemic safety or financial stability. Treating them as existential risks has delayed an otherwise straightforward resolution, stalling progress on crucial market structure issues.
If one looks past talking points, a workable compromise is already available. Congress can explicitly enable federally regulated banks—including community banks—to offer yield on payment stablecoins. Banks gain a clear, federally sanctioned revenue and customer-acquisition opportunity in the stablecoin market. They obtain a straightforward way to secure customers and funds, especially important for community banks seeking to remain competitive in a world of mega-banks and scaled payment platforms. Crypto platforms, meanwhile, retain the incentive structures their customers expect and that are available under existing law. Congress gets to move market structure legislation forward and create a bill that can pass. And, most importantly, the American consumer benefits from increased competition and the ability to share in the yield potential of their own money.
Framing crypto as an existential threat to the community bank is a rhetorical tactic, not an economic reality. A recent empirical analysis finds no statistically meaningful relationship between stablecoin adoption and deposit outflows, suggesting stablecoins function primarily as transactional instruments rather than savings substitutes. In fact, properly regulated stablecoins may provide local and community banks with a pathway to modernize their payment offerings and reach new customers.
The rewards-yield question is a design issue that can be addressed without upending progress already made. A workable compromise exists that addresses banks' economic interests, protects crypto innovation and respects the settled law of the GENIUS Act. Advancing on that basis keeps the broader market structure package intact and provides the legal clarity that the American economy deserves.
The Senate has the tools to resolve this impasse and to follow the strong leadership displayed by the White House. Failing to do so would be a choice, not an inevitability

Malaysian authorities arrested 12 police officers accused of coercing a Chinese national to transfer their cryptocurrency during a house raid near Kuala Lumpur.
Officials are investigating the case as a gang robbery involving cryptocurrency, with the arrests occurring amid heightened anti-corruption scrutiny in Malaysia.
Malaysian authorities have arrested 12 police officers accused of extorting about 200,000 ringgit ($51,000) in cryptocurrency from a group of Chinese nationals during a midnight raid on a house near Kuala Lumpur, according to local officials.
Selangor police chief Shazeli Kahar said the arrests, announced on Thursday, followed a complaint filed on Feb. 6 by one of eight alleged victims, aged between 25 and 45, local media reported. The group alleged that officers stormed a bungalow in Kajang district outside Kuala Lumpur, confiscated phones and laptops, and forced one victim to transfer digital assets to a specific cryptocurrency account.
Immediate action was taken and 12 police officers were arrested to assist investigations," Kahar said, adding that authorities are treating the case as a gang robbery involving a foreign national's cryptocurrency.
Authorities emphasize anti-corruption stance amid investigation
Kahar said the Selangor police contingent "will not compromise with any officers or members who are involved in criminal activities," signaling the seriousness of the investigation.
The arrests came days after Malaysia's king, Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, warned that corruption within government institutions remained under scrutiny. On Monday, the monarch said corrupt individuals across agencies, including the police, were on his "radar," adding, "Don't think I don't know anything. I also have my own intelligence."
Malaysia's government has also stepped up anti-corruption efforts since Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim took office in 2022, charging several senior officials and public figures in recent months as part of a broader push to curb abuse of power across the public sector.

Peter Thiel and Founders Fund exit Ethereum treasury firm ETHZilla, SEC filing shows
ETHZilla shares fell nearly 7% at one point in premarket trading on Wednesday, marking a roughly 97% drop from their $107 peak after Thiel's initial investment disclosure.
Thiel first took the stake in August 2025 as ETHZilla rebranded from 180 Life Sciences Corp. and pivoted to an Ethereum treasury strategy backed by a $565 million capital raise.
The company has since reduced its ether holdings, selling about $40 million worth in October for share buybacks and another $74.5 million in December to redeem convertible notes.
ETHZilla has now shifted its focus toward real-world asset tokenization, acquiring home loans and aircraft engines to tokenize on an Ethereum Layer 2.

The fund underperformed bitcoin, which dropped about 6% last year, and reversed strong gains of 43% in 2023 and 52% in 2024.
The losses came as the broader crypto market declined, with total market capitalization falling 10.4% and bitcoin posting its first annual drop since 2022.
Despite the downturn, Brevan Howard Digital has reportedly continued deploying capital into crypto startups and tokenization firms while incorporating downside protections in select investments.

Quantum computers are advancing fast—and experts are warning they might soon be able to hack Bitcoin. That means accessing wallets, reversing transactions, and threatening the blockchain’s core.

🔹 IBM plans to release a fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029, capable of breaking encryption.
🔹 Google's research (May 2025) shows that Bitcoin’s encryption could be cracked in a week with fewer quantum resources than expected.
🔹 Adam Back (Blockstream) says don’t panic yet—real danger is 20 years away, but recommends moving old $BTC BTC to quantum-safe addresses.
🔹 David Carvalho warns that $BTC BTC could be hacked in 5 years unless it upgrades cryptography—30% of $BTC BTC is still stored in vulnerable addresses.
🔹 Chamath Palihapitiya claims Bitcoin’s SHA-256 could be broken within 2–5 years using ~8,000 quantum chips.

🚨 Bottom line: Quantum threats are not science fiction anymore. Should Bitcoin update its security now—or wait?
