According to CoinDesk, security engineer Taylor Hornby, who discovered a serious vulnerability in Zcash using the Anthropic Opus 4.8 AI model, stated that Monero (XMR) has been added to the audit queue, and more privacy coin projects will undergo security reviews in the future.Hornby previously discovered a critical vulnerability in the Zcash Orchard privacy pool on May 29, which had gone unnoticed since May 2022 and could theoretically allow attackers to create unlimited undetectable fake ZEC. The development team at Shielded Labs completed an emergency fix before June 1 and subsequently disclosed the details of the vulnerability. As a result of the incident, ZEC dropped by as much as 38% within 24 hours after the news broke, with the market concerned that attackers may have exploited the vulnerability to steal funds from the privacy pool without leaving on-chain traces.Hornby stated that he was commissioned by the nonprofit organization Shielded Labs in April of this year to identify protocol vulnerabilities before attackers could exploit them. Although he had the means to profit from the vulnerability, he chose to report the issue to the development team, stating that "such betrayal is unacceptable." Additionally, Hornby plans to apply for funding from the Zcash community to support subsequent security research efforts.

According to a report by Fortune, David Trainer, CEO of research firm New Constructs, analyzed that to support a valuation of approximately $1.75 trillion, SpaceX needs to increase its annual revenue to about $1.1 trillion by 2035, which is nearly a 60-fold increase from $18.7 billion in 2025, equivalent to maintaining an average annual revenue growth rate of about 50% over the next decade.According to the prospectus previously submitted by SpaceX, the company's revenue in 2025 is projected to be $18.7 billion, with a net loss of $4.9 billion. Trainer calculated based on a discounted cash flow model that if investors want to achieve an annualized return of about 10% over the next decade, SpaceX must achieve the aforementioned growth targets.Analysis indicates that if it reaches a revenue scale of $1.1 trillion, SpaceX's revenue would account for about 2.4% of the U.S. GDP in 2035, with an economic scale exceeding the entire U.S. utility industry and approaching three-quarters of the U.S. transportation industry.Trainer stated that although the artificial intelligence market has vast potential, many competitors, including Alphabet, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and OpenAI, are competing for market share, and SpaceX lacks historical precedent to achieve such a scale of growth. He believes that SpaceX could not only become the largest IPO in history but also the most expensive in terms of valuation.

Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb published a statement regarding the recently patched Zcash vulnerability, indicating that there are many misunderstandings in the market about this event. He pointed out that even if the vulnerability had been exploited before it was fixed, attackers could only profit by faking ZEC in the privacy pool, and these tokens must first be converted from a privacy address to a transparent address to enter mainstream trading platforms.Since the supply of ZEC in transparent addresses can be publicly verified, any abnormal transfers exceeding the maximum supply will be detected and blocked, so the vast majority of investors holding transparent ZEC and exchange users will not be affected.Haseeb stated that the Zcash team plans to introduce a new "Turnstile" mechanism and a brand new privacy pool in future upgrades to verify that there is no inflation issue in the current privacy pool. He also mentioned that formally verified cryptographic systems can reduce implementation errors from a design perspective. Haseeb finally disclosed that Dragonfly still holds ZEC, and he is also a ZODL investor.

According to CriptoNoticias, the Southern Metropolitan Prosecutor's Office in Chile, along with the police, dismantled a money laundering network involving approximately 90 million USD, with about 20 people arrested.The network is suspected of converting illegal funds into cryptocurrency through exchanges and transferring them abroad, with one Banco Santander account manager arrested. Prosecutor Héctor Barros stated that this is one of the largest money laundering cases in Chile in recent years, and the related illegal activities were not conducted through the bank's corporate infrastructure, with the bank cooperating in the investigation.

According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin's monitoring, a certain whale has borrowed 100 million USDT through Aave since yesterday and purchased 59,742 ETH at an average price of 1,681 dollars.Currently, this address holds a total of 133,800 ETH, worth approximately 212 million dollars. Based on the current price, the newly purchased portion has incurred an unrealized loss of about 6 million dollars.On-chain data shows that the liquidation prices for the whale's current two lending positions are approximately 1,356 dollars and 1,170 dollars, respectively.

Regarding BTC briefly dropping below $60,000, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated on the X platform, "Many people still believe or feel that a drop in Bitcoin means a drop in cryptocurrency. However, derivatives, perpetual contracts, stablecoins, prediction markets, and more are all on the rise.Cryptocurrency involves various fields of finance, and now it covers a broader scope than Bitcoin. It will take some time for people to truly understand this. Of course, Bitcoin will perform excellently in the future and will remain as important as ever; this is just one of the many cycles we are experiencing."

According to Gate market data, the United States achieved strong job growth again in May, raising concerns about a possible interest rate hike later this year, with spot gold falling more than 3% during the day. Stephen Brown, an economist at Capital Economics, stated that as long as there is no large-scale unemployment panic in the labor market this summer, the likelihood of the Federal Reserve implementing several interest rate hikes later in the year seems to be increasing. Meanwhile, the negotiations between the U.S. and Iran have stalled, and renewed conflicts in the Middle East continue to push up oil prices and exacerbate inflation concerns, further strengthening market expectations that the Federal Reserve may maintain higher interest rates for a longer period.

Dragonfly partner Haseeb tweeted to clarify the recently fixed vulnerability in Zcash. He stated that if the vulnerability had been exploited before the fix (although the probability is extremely low), it would manifest as the privacy pool minting false ZEC. Attackers would need to sell quickly, but since the market primarily trades transparent ZEC, they cannot directly sell the unmasked privacy ZEC on mainstream exchanges. Therefore, the losses would mainly be borne by users holding privacy ZEC, with almost no impact on holders of transparent ZEC and price discovery.Haseeb emphasized that the Zcash team will introduce a new turnstile mechanism and a brand new privacy pool in the next upgrade to verify that the privacy pool has not been inflated. He also has high hopes for formal verification technology, believing it is an important path for enhancing software security across the industry in the future, especially crucial for privacy protocols.

According to the THORChain blog, ZEC has been added to the THORChain launch queue, but due to a recently disclosed vulnerability in Zcash that affects the normal use of integrators, THORChain needs to complete a code modification in the Bifrost module before proceeding.The development team stated that the modification is very minor but must be completed before the launch of ZEC. Currently, Monero (XMR) is expected to launch at the end of this month, with ZEC following afterward.

According to Bloomberg, the U.S. government is betting that stablecoins issued by private entities like Tether, pegged to the U.S. dollar, will expand to a scale of about $3 trillion in the coming years to support the international dominance of the dollar and absorb more demand for U.S. Treasury bonds.However, the article points out that the current mainstream stablecoin issuers are concentrated in Tether, which has questionable compliance and anti-money laundering practices in its registered location. In the event of a run or smart contract failure, this could impact the large amounts of U.S. Treasury assets it holds and disrupt global payments and settlements. The European Central Bank is advancing the use of central bank digital currencies and "tokenized euros" to support atomic settlements, in order to avoid being locked into critical financial infrastructure by U.S. private dollar tokens.
