Author: @Web3Mario ( https://x.com/web3_mario ) Summary: This week, I have been learning about some Telegram Bot APIs, and I have almost completed the framework for the TON contract. I was initially quite happy, but the sharp decline in the crypto market on Monday cast a shadow over my mood. Although I had anticipated this outcome to some extent, I didn’t expect it to come so quickly and so fiercely.

Authors: @Jesse_meta, Research Fellow at SUSS NiFT @kaplannie, Security Researcher at Least Authority @EatonAshton2, Security Researcher at Beosin Source form： https://blockchainsecurityalliance.io/zkp.html Information leakage incidents have become commonplace whether the information is stored on the Internet or in offline archives, whether it is due to a subjective intent or objective accident. As long as the information is stored centrally, it is vulnerable to attack from a single point. If the verification process requires a trusted third party, moral hazard and inefficiency will inevitably occur. The solution to information security is essential and urgent. The zero-knowledge proof technology allows users to perform verification more efficiently and securely while protecting their privacy. Suppose Bitcoin is the first invention that blockchain brought to the real world, providing a new way to store value, and Ethereum’s smart contract is the second milestone that unlocked the poten...
