Crypto Faces an AI Security Risk Without a Known Attack

AI-driven advances in mathematics could threaten the cryptography that protects crypto wallets, but the risk is harder to define than the quantum threat the industry has spent years preparing for. On Diet TBPN, host John Coogan relayed warnings from Vitalik Buterin and cryptographer Matthew Green, while arguing that crypto has time to strengthen its defenses rather than rush funds into new wallets. Coogan and co-host Jordi Hays also questioned whether the open-source tools that could expose vulnerabilities should be restricted.
