Even if you’ve never bought any cryptocurrency, like columnist Karmela Padavic-Callaghan, your money may be affected by Bitcoin’s fate – which is uncertain, as quantum computing advances are threatening to make the encryption protecting it useless

arXiv:2605.29309v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper estimates the carry embedded in listed IBIT options and compares it with the carry embedded in matched CME bitcoin futures. Put-call parity recovers an implied forward on the ETF; BlackRock's daily holdings file maps each ETF share into bitcoin units; and CME futures prices and BRRNY, a U.S. close bitcoin reference rate, provide the corresponding futures-market carry. The difference in carry implied by these two products is consistent with frictions that limit cross-margining between spot bitcoin or ETF exposure and CME futures. In the selected-strike IBIT sample of 386 date-bucket observations, the mean wedge is 2.58 percent and the median wedge is 2.52 percent, both measured in annual percentage points. The result is consistent with segmented collateral and margin systems limiting arbitrage between regulated bitcoin-exposure venues.

In his 1964 paper, "Transmission of Information by Extraterrestrial Civilizations," famed astrophysicist and radio astronomer Nikolai Kardashev addressed the types of transmissions (and at what energies) astronomers should search for in their Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). As part of his analysis, Kardashev proposed a universal scale for classifying the technological advancement of civilizations based on their overall energy consumption. The resulting Kardashev Scale (as it came to be known) came down to three categories.

arXiv:2605.20952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bitcoin is the cryptocurrency with the largest market capitalisation, but its widespread adoption is fundamentally limited by the scalability constraints of its consensus algorithm, which requires every transaction to be confirmed onchain. To address this, several Layer-2 scalability solutions have been proposed to move payments offchain -- most notably, the Lightning Network. However, their deployment remains hindered by cumbersome setup requirements: users must lock funds onchain to participate and engage in complex auxiliary protocols (e.g., for channel rebalancing, top-ups, and routing). Other solutions, like payment pools, sidechains and rollups, cannot be implemented in a non-custodial way on Bitcoin due to its limited scripting capabilities, or require all protocol participants to update the offchain state. In this work, we present Ark, the first Bitcoin-compatible commit-chain. Ark enables offchain transactions of virtual UTXOs

arXiv:2605.19715v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bitcoin recently introduced a new protocol for the encryption of peer-to-peer (P2P) communication. The protocol, known as V2 P2P transport, represents a big step towards securing the overlay network against various previously-known attack vectors. Based on an analysis of V2 P2P transport, this work examines the current viability of said attacks and concludes that while they are now remediated, alternative attacks and paths to similar objectives exist. The identified shortcomings are conceptual (and not implementation bugs) and even applicable to other P2P networks. We show how a network-level attacker can identify application messages using the length of TCP payloads, can eclipse a target node by taking advantage of how encrypted communication channels work and can downgrade all of a node's connections to the unencrypted protocol by using the mechanisms designed for compatibility. We validate our contributions using a combination of

arXiv:2605.12853v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Digitalisation transforms money from distinguishable physical objects into fungible informational units. A recent theoretical framework predicts that such indistinguishable wealth obeys bosonic occupancy statistics, leading to geometric ownership distributions and enhanced inequality. Using Bitcoin blockchain data, we test this prediction on 63 UTXO denominations across 72 monthly snapshots (2018--2023). A one-parameter geometric model describes the ownership distributions, reproducing both mean holdings and their temporal evolution; Jensen--Shannon divergence values lie below $0.08$ in $99.74\%$ of cases. The inferred inverse-temperature parameter satisfies the analytic mean--temperature relation to better than $0.1\%$ in every sample -- a self-consistency test that two-parameter alternatives cannot pass -- and remains within a narrow band across eight orders of magnitude in denomination and over six years.

arXiv:2605.04975v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Atomic swaps are a fundamental primitive for the trustless exchange of digital assets across blockchains: they guarantee that either both parties receive the agreed assets or neither party transfers. While this all-or-nothing guarantee is powerful, it also imposes an inherent determinism that rules out exchanges whose intended outcome is probabilistic. As a result, existing atomic swaps cannot realize trustless exchanges in which one party pays for a fixed chance of receiving a larger asset or reward, as in lotteries, randomized allocation mechanisms, and probabilistic cross-chain trades. We introduce probabilistic swaps, a new cryptographic primitive that extends atomic swaps to the probabilistic setting. In a probabilistic swap, one party's transfer is executed with a fixed, publicly specified probability embedded in the protocol and cannot be biased by either party. This yields a trustless mechanism for randomized exchange with

arXiv:2604.19514v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The consensus that GCN, GraphSAGE, GAT, and EvolveGCN outperform feature-only baselines on the Elliptic Bitcoin Dataset is widely cited but has not been rigorously stress-tested under a leakage-free evaluation protocol. We perform a seed-matched inductive-versus-transductive comparison and find that this consensus does not hold. Under a strictly inductive protocol, Random Forest on raw features achieves F1 = 0.821 and outperforms all evaluated GNNs, while GraphSAGE reaches F1 = 0.689 +/- 0.017. A paired controlled experiment reveals a 39.5-point F1 gap attributable to training-time exposure to test-period adjacency. Additionally, edge-shuffle ablations show that randomly wired graphs outperform the real transaction graph, indicating that the dataset's topology can be misleading under temporal distribution shift. Hybrid models combining GNN embeddings with raw features provide only marginal gains and remain substantially below

arXiv:2604.17183v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bitcoin transaction fees will become more important as the block subsidy declines, but fee formation is hard to study with blockchain data alone because the relevant queueing environment is unobserved. We develop and estimate a structural model of Bitcoin fee choice that treats the mempool as a market for scarce blockspace. We assemble a novel, high-frequency mempool panel, from a self-run Bitcoin node that records transaction arrivals, exits, block inclusion, fee-bumping events, and congestion snapshots. We characterize the fee market as a Vickery-Clarke-Groves mechanism and derive an equation to estimate fees. In the first-stage we estimate a monotone delay technology linking fee-rate priority and network state to expected confirmation delay. We then estimate how fees respond to that delay technology and to transaction characteristics. We find that congestion is the main determinant of delay; that the marginal value of priority is

arXiv:2604.08825v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This study investigates the transmission of monetary policy narratives to Bitcoin prices, distinguishing the impact of ex-ante expectations from ex-post interest rate implementation. We introduce a high-frequency Monetary Policy Expectations (MPE) index, using a Large Language Model (LLM)-based classification of 118,000+ market messages to achieve a precise hawkish/dovish decomposition. Results from a framework combining Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) indicate that Bitcoin functions as a sensitive barometer of central bank signaling; specifically, hawkish narratives consistently trigger negative price responses independently of actual Federal Funds Rate adjustments. We demonstrate that the MPE index Granger-causes Bitcoin returns at short-to-medium horizons, establishing linear predictive causality, while the LSTM-SHAP framework reveals pronounced non-linear, macroeconomic

arXiv:2604.06092v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The value of proof-of-work cryptocurrencies critically depends on miners having incentives to follow the protocol. However, the Bitcoin mining protocol proposed by Nakamoto (2008) and implemented in practice is well known not to constitute an equilibrium: Eyal and Sirer (2018) construct a profitable deviation called ``selfish mining'' which relies on strategically delaying disclosure of newly mined blocks rather than publishing them immediately. We propose inertial mining, a novel mining protocol. When miners follow inertial mining, they produce the outcome intended by Nakamoto, i.e., a single longest chain. But unlike the Bitcoin mining protocol, inertial mining constitutes an equilibrium (assuming no miner controls more than half of the mining power). Indeed, neither selfish mining nor any other deviation is profitable. Furthermore, inertial mining only changes miners' behavior in the event of off-path forks, and can be implemented in

arXiv:2603.26293v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bitcoin's limited programmability and transaction throughput have historically prevented native Bitcoin from participating in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. Existing solutions depend on honest-majority thresholds, or centralized custodial entities that introduce significant trust requirements. This paper introduces Bitcoin Smart Accounts (BSA), a novel protocol that enables native Bitcoin to access DeFi through trust-minimized infrastructure while maintaining self-custody of funds. BSA achieves this through a combination of emulated Bitcoin covenants using Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions (PSBTs) and Taproot scripts, a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)-based arbitration system, and destination chain smart contracts that enable DeFi platforms to accept self-custodial Bitcoin as collateral without necessitating protocol-level modifications. The setup leverages liquidity secured by the Lombard Security Consortium which

Bithumb is pressing ahead with plans to renew CEO Lee Jae-won’s term despite a string of controversies, including an erroneous bitcoin distribution incident last month, industry officials said Sunday. The country’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange was already hit with heavy sanctions by the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) under the Financial Services Commission, including a six-month partial suspension of operations and a 36.8 billion won ($24 million) fine for breaches of anti-money laundering rules. The measures also included a reprimand warning for the CEO and a six-month suspension for the reporting officer. In addition to these penalties, Bithumb is still awaiting the outcome of an inspection into its order book sharing with an overseas platform. Meanwhile, a separate probe by the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) into the erroneous bitcoin payout case is nearing completion, raising the prospect of further sanctions and intensifying scrutiny over management. According to

Учёные из Кембриджа опубликовали исследование, показывающее устойчивость криптовалюты Bitcoin к различным сбоям в сетевой инфраструктуре.  Как показывает работа, главная криптовалюта рынка обладает очень высокой устойчивостью в том числе к обрывам подводных кабелей, обеспечивающих работу Интернета.  Создано ChatGPT Учёные говорят, что для существенного нарушения работы сети необходимо одновременное повреждение 72-92% всех подводных кабелей в мире. Само собой, в нормальных условиях такой сценарий невозможен.  При этом авторы отмечают, что в ряде случаев целенаправленные атаки на сеть Bitcoin могут быть очень опасными.   Злоумышленник, атаковавший всего пять крупнейших маршрутизирующих доменов (Hetzner, OVH, Comcast, Amazon и Google Cloud), парализовал бы сеть

arXiv:2603.17261v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Privacy protection mechanisms are a fundamental aspect of security in cryptocurrency systems, particularly in decentralized networks such as Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin addresses are not directly associated with real-world identities, this does not fully guarantee user privacy. Various deanonymization solutions have been proposed, with network layer deanonymization attacks being especially prominent. However, existing approaches often exhibit limitations such as low precision. In this paper, we propose \textit{NTSSL}, a novel and efficient transaction deanonymization method that integrates network traffic analysis with semi-supervised learning. We use unsupervised learning algorithms to generate pseudo-labels to achieve comparable performance with lower costs. Then, we introduce \textit{NTSSL+}, a cross-layer collaborative analysis integrating transaction clustering results to further improve accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate a

Исследование Кембриджского университета показало, что блокчейн Bitcoin способен переживать масштабные случайные сбои из-за обрывов подводной кабельной инфраструктуры. В то же время, эта устойчивость не защищает сеть от целенаправленных атак на ключевые маршрутизирующие домены. Источник изображения: A Chosen Soul / Unsplash.com

arXiv:2603.16080v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bitcoin transaction networks are large scale socio- technical systems in which activities are represented through multi-hop interaction patterns. Graph Neural Networks(GNNs) have become a widely adopted tool for analyzing such systems, supporting tasks such as entity detection and transaction classification. Large-scale datasets like Elliptic have allowed for a rise in the analysis of these systems and in tasks such as fraud detection. In these settings, the amount of transactional context available to each node is determined by the neighborhood aggregation and sampling strategies, yet the interaction between these receptive fields and embedding geometry has received limited attention. In this work, we conduct a controlled comparison of Euclidean and tangent-space hyperbolic GNNs for node classification on a large Bitcoin transaction graph. By explicitly varying the neighborhood while keeping the model architecture and dimensionality
