BIS Tests XRP Ledger to Anchor Official Statistics On-Chain in Proof-of-Concept Paper

A BIS working paper tested the XRP Ledger as a proof-of-concept for verifying official statistics on-chain. Heres what it found.　　A Bank for International Settlements (BIS) working paper tests the XRP Ledger (XRPL) as a proof-of-concept for verifying official statistics on-chain, recording cryptographic fingerprints of public datasets that publish in three to five seconds and verify in one to two.　　The Working Paper No 1374 essentially asks how statistical agencies can give users an independent way to check the origin and integrity of published data without changing their existing dissemination systems.　　International organizations (the BIS among them) rely on the SDMX standard to exchange official statistics, and the prototype binds each SDMX dataset to its source by hashing it and writing a single summary value to the ledger.　　Though only the fingerprints reach the chain, never the underlying numbers, so confidential data stays off-ledger, and the method extends to formats such as XBRL. The BIS has tested public blockchains before, including Project Mariana, which trialed wholesale central bank digital currency settlement on a public chain with the central banks of France, Singapore, and Switzerland.　　The system normalizes each file with Canonical XML 1.1, hashes it with SHA3-512 at the whole-file and per-series level, and collapses

U.S. Strikes Three Iranian Oil Tankers After Missile Attacks

The U.S. military struck three Iranian oil tankers on Sept. 5 after Iran fired missiles toward two American warships. CENTCOM said its forces disabled two carriers near Kharg Island and Jask. American forces also destroyed another tanker in the Gulf of Oman.　　The strikes followed what CENTCOM described as multiple Iranian attacks against a U.S. aircraft carrier and guided-missile destroyer. However, the American ships evaded the missiles, and no U.S. personnel suffered injuries.　　U.S. Targets Irans Oil Network　　CENTCOM said the tankers form part of a multibillion-dollar network supporting the IRGC and regional proxies. Moreover, the command warned that Irans exposed oil fleet could face further strikes.　　Related: Bitcoin Price Prediction: Can BTC Push to $84,000 Before the Fed Meets Again？　　“Let the message to the IRGC be clear: If you shoot at two of our ships, we will impose an even higher economic cost —taking out three of yours,” Adm. Brad Cooper said.　　Additionally, fighting has intensified since the 60-day ceasefire expired last month. As a result, attacks have spread across Gulf states, including the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.　　Oil Routes Face Growing Risks　　The attacks also put the Strait of Hormuz back in focus. Traders are watching for any disruption that could tighten oil supplies

Fake Ministry Letter: 19% VAT on Crypto Purchases

If a letter reaches you demanding, in the name of the Federal Ministry of Finance, 19 percent VAT on your purchase of cryptocurrency, the answer is short: no such claim exists in German tax law, and the ministry does not send it. The Federal Ministry of Finance has listed this exact letter as a forgery on its warning page since September 1, 2026. Pay nothing, do not reply, click no link.　　The case still deserves more than three sentences, because this wave is better built than the usual bulk emails. The perpetrators cite real transactions, they use official terminology, and they hit a nerve: since the start of 2026, trading platforms have been reporting user data to the tax authorities, and many investors are expecting mail from the authorities anyway. That expectation is exactly what the scam exploits.　　Fake finance ministry letters on crypto VAT: what the ministry reported on September 1　　On the page warnings from the Federal Ministry of Finance, as of September 1, 2026, the case is set out in spare words. In a forged letter, the ministry supposedly confirms that a company selling cryptocurrency, meaning a crypto exchange or a crypto broker, is authorised to collect 19 percent VAT

Bitcoin Quantum Risk: Check Your Addresses

If you hold your own Bitcoin, the most important question in the quantum debate is not a question about the future. It is one you can answer today on a block explorer: has your address ever revealed its public key？ That single fact decides whether a future quantum computer could attack your coins at all. Addresses that have never sent anything do not show their key. Addresses you have spent from show it permanently.　　The occasion for this article is a paper that, at first glance, has nothing to do with cryptocurrencies. On September 3, 2026, the G7 Cybersecurity Working Group, chaired by France, published the joint statement “Preparing for the Post-Quantum Era: A Call to Action”. The message: do not wait for the first capable quantum machine, but take stock of your own encryption now and start migrating. For you as a holder of Bitcoin, that is not an abstract matter for government agencies. The first European milestone for the switch expires at the end of this year, and the question of which of your addresses are exposed is a question of custody.　　This article answers three things: what on a blockchain would actually be vulnerable, how you can check your

Elon Musk was baited into a $80M memecoin trap – Heres how

The crypto market is increasingly becoming uncontrollable in scams, with social engineering being one of the avenues. Recently, Elon Musk was baited into promoting a scam memecoin token, SLINK, linked to his company, Neuralink.　　The memecoin token, Shivolink [SLINK], surged past $80 million in a few hours before crashing by over 95%. Here is how the events unfolded:　　How Elon Musk was social engineered to promote SLINK　　The X account of Shivon Zilis, a Neuralink executive who is also the mother of Elon Musks four children, was compromised. The hacker then made a post that did not make it obvious that it is a crypto project.　　The post was an effective way to use social engineering to get Elon to react. However, Ryan Tanaka, a podcaster about Neuralink, said that someone hacked Shivons X account. He wrote,　　This post below is very likely compromised.　　But after Elon replied to the Neuralink post with an emoji, Ryan admitted he was wrong, which suggested Elon backed the project. As a result, the memecoin rallied aggressively.　　Source: X　　However, this sudden rally did not last, as the aftermath proved it was a pump-and-dump scheme.　　The post on Shivon‘s account was deleted, leading to the coin crashing below $1 million in market cap.
