ChainCatcher news, Grayscale announced on platform X that Grayscale Bittensor Trust is now open to qualified investors, who can gain TAO investment opportunities through this trust fund.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Digital Currency Group (DCG) is launching a new subsidiary focused on artificial intelligence, Yuma, to support the development of the open-source Bittensor network. This move represents the fusion of the cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence sectors, providing capital and technical resources for startups and established companies to build projects on Bittensor.Bittensor is a decentralized protocol that supports blockchain-based machine learning networks. DCG first invested in Bittensor in 2021. The company has also invested in several decentralized AI companies, including Tensorplex, Natix, and Flock. DCG founder Barry Silbert will serve as the CEO of Yuma.

ChainCatcher message, at the Solana Breakpoint conference, Richard Wu, co-founder of the Solana ecosystem NFT trading platform Tensor, stated: "Tensor is now fully open source (including 5 protocols such as the NFT marketplace) and has hosted a free and fully customizable Web2 API, which theoretically can completely clone our frontend.In addition, the Tensor NFT marketplace fee structure is set as follows: 50% of the Tensor fees go to developers, and 50% is allocated to the Tensor Foundation treasury. The Tensor Foundation has also opened a funding program, and token grants are currently available for application. Tensor has been developing a new product over the past month."

ChainCatcher message, the OpenTensor Foundation released the latest updates on Bittensor on social media early this morning:Restoring normal operation of Bittensor: OTF will fully open the Bittensor mainnet in less than an hour;No updates needed for the testnet today;Bittensor 7.3.0 will be released today, introducing the following changes:The consensus-based weight feature is now available in the "master" branch;A new btcli command option check_coldkey_swap will allow users to check the remaining time before executing the scheduled coldkey swap on-chain, or to see if it is in arbitration status.

ChainCatcher news, according to the blockchain explorer, the decentralized AI network Bittensor has resumed block production. Bittensor officials stated that normal operations will resume at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on July 12.

ChainCatcher message, the OpenTensor Foundation stated on X that the OTF team is working to ensure the safety of at-risk TAO funds before restoring the normal operation of the Bittensor chain. Meanwhile, anyone other than the OTF team who claims to be able to recover users' at-risk TAO funds should be considered a scammer.Let it be clear: the official will never ask users to provide their mnemonic or seed phrases, nor will they request any private information. There are no so-called DAO, airdrop, voting, or other plans unless users see such information released by official accounts.The foundation encourages users to report such activities in various community channels so that others are informed and vigilant against these scams.

ChainCatcher news, the OpenTensor Foundation stated on social media that the team is committed to restoring the normal operation of the Bittensor blockchain as soon as possible. The current top priority is to ensure the security and integrity of the system, ensuring that no additional wallets are compromised and that no more funds are at risk.The official statement indicates that efforts are ongoing to establish a mechanism to ensure the safety of at-risk funds.ChainCatcher previously reported that the decentralized AI network Bittensor officially announced that its community participants experienced a serious security attack on July 2. The Bittensor Foundation has taken emergency actions to halt further fund outflows and is conducting an in-depth investigation into the attack.The attack originated from a malicious program disguised as a legitimate Bittensor package in version 6.12.2 of the PyPi package manager. When users downloaded this package and decrypted their cold wallet keys, the decrypted bytecode was sent to the attacker's remote server, resulting in stolen funds. The main victims were users who downloaded the Bittensor PyPi package and performed transactions, staking, and delegation between May 22 and 29. The Bittensor Foundation has removed the malicious package from PyPi and conducted a comprehensive review of the code, finding no other vulnerabilities at this time.To mitigate losses, the Bittensor Foundation has placed validation nodes behind a firewall and activated security mode on Subtensor. The Bittensor blockchain has suspended all transactions and will only resume normal operations after the vulnerabilities are fixed. The foundation is working with trading platforms to attempt to recover the stolen funds.The Bittensor Foundation stated that it will learn from this incident, improve the package verification process, increase the frequency of external audits, and enhance security standards and monitoring levels. The foundation urges users to transfer their funds to new wallets as soon as possible and to upgrade to the latest version of the Bittensor package.

ChainCatcher news, the OpenTensor Foundation (OTF) has initiated a proposal vote to burn 10% of the Bittensor (TAO) supply, aimed at stabilizing the token price in response to a recent vulnerability that led to token losses.Additionally, regarding the root cause of the attack, the OpenTensor Foundation stated that the attack traced back to version 6.12.2 of the PyPi package manager, where a malicious package was uploaded, compromising user security. This malicious package disguised itself as a legitimate Bittensor package and contained code to steal unencrypted cold private key details. When users downloaded this package and decrypted their cold private keys, the decrypted bytecode was sent to a remote server controlled by the attacker.Regarding mitigation measures, the OTF team has removed the malicious version 6.12.2 package from the PyPi package manager repository and is conducting a thorough review of the Subtensor and Bittensor code on GitHub to ensure there are no other attack vectors. No additional vulnerabilities have been found so far, and the team will continue to thoroughly review and assess the codebase and conduct a comprehensive evaluation of all other potential attack vectors.OTF pointed out that this attack did not affect the blockchain or Subtensor code, and the underlying Bittensor protocol remains intact and secure. Once the code review is complete, Opentensor will gradually restore normal operations of the Bittensor blockchain, allowing transactions to flow again.ChainCatcher previously reported that in response to the Bittensor on-chain wallet attack incident, on-chain detective ZachXBT monitored and found that 32,000 TAO (worth $8 million) were stolen from an address starting with 5FbWTr.

ChainCatcher message, regarding the wallet attack incident on the Bittensor chain, on-chain detective ZachXBT monitored and discovered that an address starting with 5FbWTr had 32,000 TAO (worth 8 million USD) stolen.ZachXBT stated that the attack incident faced by Bittensor originated from a stolen private key.

ChainCatcher message, Bittensor official response to the wallet attack, "We are investigating and have recently taken the precaution of completely halting on-chain transactions until we have more information about the nature of this attack.""The chain is now in safe mode for at least 24 hours. During the investigation of the source of this attack, all transactions (including transfers) have been paused. We will not release any regular software updates for Bittensor software or any chain updates on the mainnet or testnet until we fully restore the chain online."Previously, Bittensor (TAO) experienced a temporary drop of over 15% due to the theft of on-chain wallets.

ChainCatcher news, decentralized GPU cloud infrastructure Aethir has partnered with generative AI application platform company TensorOpera.
