Menese promotes decentralised multichain asset management for institutions

Menese is promoting a decentralised approach to digital asset management, positioning its platform as an alternative to custodial systems and fragmented multichain infrastructure for individuals, businesses and decentralised organisations.

The platform says users can hold Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, XRP, Cardano and more than 50 other digital assets within a single operating system, while maintaining direct control of their assets.

According to Menese, the platform is fully non-custodial and uses Chain Key cryptography developed on the Internet Computer Protocol, allowing assets to be managed across multiple networks without relying on bridges, wrapped tokens or a central intermediary.

The company says its infrastructure is designed to remove single points of failure by distributing control across multiple machines operating globally. It argues that this model offers stronger protection for digital assets than systems that depend on a single company or custody provider.

Menese is also promoting cross-network functionality, allowing users to swap supported assets within the platform. The company says the same infrastructure can be used for a broader range of financial activities, including access to tokenised assets such as equities through integrated marketplace services.

The announcement reflects a wider trend in digital asset infrastructure, where developers are increasingly focused on interoperability, self-custody and institutional-grade security. As more organisations manage assets across multiple networks, the complexity of using separate wallets, custody arrangements and blockchain-specific tools has become a growing operational challenge.

Security remains one of the central issues in the sector. Recent thefts involving compromised wallet credentials and bridge exploits have renewed interest in non-custodial systems that reduce dependence on centralised infrastructure.

Menese says its platform is aimed at enterprise users, teams and decentralised organisations seeking native multichain asset management without surrendering control of their holdings. The company argues that decentralised cryptographic infrastructure can provide a more resilient foundation for organisations operating across multiple blockchain networks.

The platform’s claims highlight the continuing debate between custodial convenience and sovereign asset control, as infrastructure providers compete to offer secure, interoperable systems for an increasingly multichain digital asset environment.

Oisy points to seedless wallet model after $38m Bitcoin theft

Oisy points to seedless wallet model after $38m Bitcoin theft

A Bitcoin theft involving an estimated US$38 million has renewed attention on how hardware wallets generate and protect recovery credentials, with wallet provider Oisy arguing that the incident highlights weaknesses in seed phrase based security rather than in Bitcoin itself.

The theft was reportedly linked to a hardware wallet that generated predictable seed phrases, allowing attackers to reconstruct wallet access. Security researchers have long warned that seed phrase generation depends heavily on the quality of randomness used during wallet creation, and predictable or compromised entropy can create vulnerabilities.

Oisy said the incident reflected a failure in the seed phrase generation process rather than a flaw in the Bitcoin network.

The company has used the case to promote its seedless wallet architecture, which does not rely on a traditional recovery phrase. Instead, Oisy says users’ cryptographic keys are protected through a distributed network model in which no single device or machine holds the complete key.

According to the company, the design removes a single point of compromise and reduces the risk that a seed phrase could be guessed, stolen or extracted from a user’s device.

The comments come amid wider discussion within the digital asset industry about wallet security and self custody practices. Hardware wallets remain widely used for long-term storage of Bitcoin and other digital assets, but security experts generally emphasise that their safety depends on both secure hardware and robust key generation.

Traditional seed phrase wallets usually generate a 12 or 24 word recovery phrase, which can restore access to funds if a device is lost. That recovery method has also made seed phrases a frequent target for theft, phishing attacks and social engineering.

Alternative wallet models, including multi-party cryptography and distributed key management systems, aim to reduce reliance on a single recovery phrase by splitting or distributing control over cryptographic keys.

Oisy said its approach relies on advanced cryptographic techniques and a network of independent computers to protect user keys, arguing that no single machine ever possesses the full key.

The company is encouraging users to hold Bitcoin through its platform, while the broader industry continues to debate the trade-offs between traditional seed phrase recovery systems and newer seedless wallet designs.

The reported theft has reinforced a familiar lesson for digital asset users: the security of a wallet can depend as much on how access credentials are created and protected as on the security of the underlying network itself.

Sonic DEX traces $276,000 exploit and plans compensation portal for affected users

Sonic DEX traces $276,000 exploit and plans compensation portal for affected users

Sonic DEX has published an official report into a security incident that led to the unauthorised extraction of assets from 26 liquidity pools, with estimated losses of about $276,000.

The incident occurred on 15 July 2026 and prompted an investigation by the platform’s engineering and security teams, who examined the technical cause of the exploit, tracked the movement of the stolen assets on-chain, and contacted centralised exchanges and law enforcement agencies.

According to the report, the exploit was caused by a transaction atomicity vulnerability linked to the asynchronous execution model used by Internet Computer canisters. Sonic said the attacker was able to submit a large number of precisely timed asynchronous requests that altered execution ordering during intermediate state transitions.

The platform said the exploit did not involve compromised private keys or administrative access. Instead, it took advantage of an edge case in the protocol’s execution flow, allowing funds to be extracted before the final transaction state had been reconciled.

Sonic said the affected functionality was disabled after the vulnerability was identified, and architectural changes are being implemented to prevent similar attacks.

The forensic investigation traced the stolen assets through multiple intermediary wallets, token swaps and cross-chain transfers before they were converted into Bitcoin and eventually deposited at the HitBTC exchange.

The report states that about $195,000 was consolidated into a primary attacker wallet, while smaller amounts were distributed across three secondary wallets. Investigators said the attacker moved 96,780 ICP through a relay wallet, converted the assets into ckBTC through ICPSwap, liquidated about 30 million BOOM tokens, and later transferred the proceeds into a central aggregation wallet.

Sonic said approximately 3.145 BTC was converted into native Bitcoin through 62 separate burn transactions before being moved through a series of peel-chain wallets and deposited into a HitBTC address.

The company said it had contacted exchanges connected to the movement of funds and provided transaction records and forensic evidence. It said the exchanges had acknowledged receipt of the reports and indicated they would cooperate with law enforcement investigations where legally permitted.

Sonic also said investigators had identified an additional lead involving funding received by the attacker-controlled wallet about a month before the exploit.

The platform said it is continuing to work with authorities, while noting that identifying the individual behind the exchange account would require information held by the exchange and the appropriate legal process.

Alongside the investigation, Sonic announced plans to change the direction of the platform. It intends to phase out its liquidity pool protocol and focus on AI-powered token discovery, market analytics, token aggregation and investing tools.

The company said the redesign has been under development for several months and is intended to improve security, performance and long-term sustainability.

Sonic also announced that it plans to launch a compensation portal next week for affected users. Eligible users will be asked to submit their wallet address, details of affected assets and supporting information for verification.

The company said claims will be reviewed against on-chain records and that it intends to compensate eligible users either fully or partially, depending on the recovery process and available funds. Compensation is expected to be distributed directly to users’ wallets over the coming month.

The report says the current focus is on reimbursing regular community users who were directly affected by the exploit, with further details on eligibility, verification procedures and compensation timelines to be announced before the portal goes live.

Sonic said it would continue pursuing recovery of the stolen assets, cooperating with exchanges and law enforcement, and providing further updates as the investigation progresses.

MULTI/DEX opens Phase II trading competition and releases exchange code as open source

MULTI/DEX has launched Phase II of its trading competition and released its exchange code as open source, marking the next stage of development for the on-chain trading platform.

The project said the codebase is now publicly available through GitHub, allowing developers and community contributors to review and build on the platform. The release follows the completion of Phase I, which attracted nearly 1,500 participants.

According to the team, the Phase I trading ledger has been snapshotted and is now being analysed before prizes are awarded to participants. Details of the Phase II prize structure are expected to be announced separately.

The project has presented MULTI/DEX as a fully on-chain exchange and said it is now exploring perpetual futures trading as a future direction. Developers involved with the project argue that the platform’s architecture is designed to support advanced trading features while remaining entirely on-chain.

Open-sourcing the code allows independent developers to inspect the platform’s design and contribute improvements. Community participation has become an increasingly common feature of decentralised trading projects, particularly during early development phases where testing, security reviews and feature refinement often rely on external contributors.

The announcement also highlights the role of the project’s user community, with the team thanking participants from the first competition and encouraging continued involvement as development progresses.

Phase II is now open to traders, with further updates on prizes and additional trading features expected as the competition continues.

ICP-powered AI platform helps automate grant consultancy services

Entrepreneur Terry Igharoro, founder of agriiDAO, has announced that his AI-powered consultancy platform has onboarded its first three paying clients, using the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) as its underlying infrastructure.

The platform is designed to help users establish nonprofit organisations and prepare grant applications through an AI agent trained on Igharoro’s own grant consultancy process.

Igharoro said he developed the system by converting the methods he used to help clients secure more than £750,000 in grants into an automated workflow. The platform aims to allow more people to offer grant consultancy services without needing years of experience in grant writing.

“The platform gives them an AI agent that handles the end-to-end process of setting up a nonprofit organisation and drafting a fundable grant application,” Igharoro said.

According to Igharoro, the first clients using the service have focused on the outcomes delivered by the platform rather than the technology behind it.

“None of them asked what it’s built on. They care that it delivers what I said it would,” he said.

The launch reflects a wider shift towards AI tools that package specialised professional services into accessible platforms. Businesses and independent creators are increasingly exploring AI agents to automate workflows, reduce administrative tasks and provide specialised support.

Built on ICP, agriiDAO’s platform uses decentralised infrastructure to support its AI-based consultancy model. The project is among a growing number of applications exploring how AI agents can be integrated into online services.

Igharoro’s approach focuses on turning a repeatable consulting process into a product that can be used by people seeking to build nonprofit initiatives and access funding opportunities.

ICP community audit corrects tokenomics tracking assumptions

ICP community audit corrects tokenomics tracking assumptions

A discussion on the DFINITY Developer Forum has prompted a reassessment of how newly minted ICP enters circulation, after community researchers found that some tokenomics tracking models had relied on incorrect assumptions.

The issue emerged when tracking tools suggested that newly minted ICP rewards were flowing directly into the liquid market supply. A closer examination of on-chain data showed that much of the newly created ICP was instead being automatically staked, locked into neurons or allocated to node provider operational accounts.

The correction has drawn attention to a broader question about how tokenomics data is interpreted, even when the underlying blockchain data is publicly available.

Researchers involved in the discussion said the discrepancy came from the model used to classify minted tokens rather than from the blockchain ledger itself. The revised analysis indicates that newly minted rewards do not necessarily become immediately available for trading on secondary markets.

On the Internet Computer, ICP issuance, neuron operations and reward distributions are recorded through the Network Nervous System and the ICP Ledger. Because these transactions are publicly verifiable, independent developers can examine the underlying state and compare it with community-built analytics models.

Supporters of the Internet Computer argue that this creates a different level of transparency from traditional financial reporting, where accounting revisions may emerge only after audits or company disclosures. Critics of blockchain analytics have also noted that publicly available data does not automatically produce accurate conclusions, as analytical models can still contain flawed assumptions.

The forum discussion has become an example of how open blockchain data can be independently tested and revised. Rather than revealing a protocol failure, the episode highlighted the importance of distinguishing between token creation, staking activity and liquid circulating supply.

Developers said the corrected model provides a more accurate picture of ICP circulation and demonstrates the value of ongoing public review of on-chain analytics.

Internet Identity proposals aim to prepare ICP authentication for AI agent access

Internet Identity proposals aim to prepare ICP authentication for AI agent access

Internet Identity, the authentication system used across the Internet Computer network, is undergoing a proposed upgrade that would allow AI agents to interact with ICP applications through user-controlled identities and time-limited permissions.

Two governance proposals, 143261 and 143262, are currently open in the Network Nervous System (NNS). They cover upgrades to both the Internet Identity backend and frontend and are designed to prepare the platform for broader support of the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

The proposed changes would introduce an official DFINITY-operated MCP connector and enable AI access during the registration of new Internet Identity accounts. Existing identities would also be migrated to support the official connector.

The proposals are focused on a delegation model rather than permanent AI access. Under the proposed system, every AI session would require explicit user approval, users could disable AI access for individual identities, and permissions granted to applications through MCP would be limited to five minutes.

Additional safeguards include revocation controls that invalidate registrations already in progress, visibility into which identity an MCP connection will use, and restrictions that limit MCP delivery to certified trusted URLs. The proposals also include support for ICRC-167 URL transport, which is intended to improve redirect-based application sign-in.

Supporters argue that AI systems will increasingly require secure identity infrastructure rather than relying on usernames, passwords or long-lived API credentials. They say cryptographically controlled delegation could provide a more secure way for AI agents to act on behalf of users.

As of the latest voting figures, Proposal 143261 had received more than 5.4 million voting power in favour and about 423,000 against, while Proposal 143262 had received more than 5.5 million in favour and about 420,000 against. Both proposals remain open and require at least 3 per cent of total voting power to vote in favour before they can be adopted.

If approved, the upgrades would expand Internet Identity’s authentication capabilities while keeping user approval, short-lived permissions and revocation controls at the centre of AI-related access.

Llama_cpp_canister update gives developers a clearer view of AI costs

The latest update to llama_cpp_canister is making it easier for developers to understand exactly how many AI tokens are used in each on-chain AI request.

Version 0.15.0 introduces detailed token tracking for both run_update and run_query calls. Instead of providing estimates, the system now reports the exact number of prompt tokens used, how many tokens were reused from the cache, how many had to be processed again, and how many new tokens were generated.

The update was created to support ICGPT’s Prompt Cost Lab, a tool that helps developers test AI prompts and compare both their quality and cost. The new token accounting gives developers a more accurate way to measure how expensive each AI request is and where savings can be made.

One of the main benefits is that developers can see whether a prompt is efficiently using cached data or whether it is repeatedly processing the same information. That can help reduce costs for AI applications that run frequently on-chain.

The Prompt Cost Lab also allows users to experiment with different prompt designs, compare results, and evaluate AI responses using automated quality testing methods, including LLM-as-a-Judge evaluations.

The project team says these tools are being developed to help create better and more cost-efficient AI tasks for a planned AI task board that is part of the funnAI roadmap.

The updated llama_cpp_canister has been released as an open-source project on GitHub, where developers can access the latest version and documentation.

Liquidium reaches $4.25 million in total deposits as lending activity grows

Liquidium has reached $4.25 million in total deposits, with users increasingly using native digital assets as collateral rather than selling them, according to a platform update.

The milestone points to growing activity on the lending platform, where users can lock up supported assets to borrow funds while retaining ownership of those assets.

Using collateral instead of selling allows holders to access liquidity without exiting their positions. This approach has become a common feature of decentralised lending platforms, particularly during periods when investors prefer to maintain exposure to assets they expect to hold for the longer term.

Liquidium said demand on the platform has been increasing and that additional upgrades and product updates are being prepared.

The announcement did not provide a breakdown of deposits by asset type or the timeframe over which the $4.25 million total was reached.

The update follows a period of increased attention on Bitcoin-native and Internet Computer-related lending activity, with collateral-backed borrowing emerging as an alternative to outright asset sales.

Lending platforms typically rely on over-collateralised loans, where borrowers deposit assets worth more than the amount they borrow. The collateral can be returned once the loan is repaid, although market volatility can affect collateral requirements and liquidation risks.

Liquidium has been expanding its lending infrastructure and integrations, with recent developments including increased activity involving ICP and Bitcoin-related assets.

The latest deposit milestone suggests that users are making greater use of collateral-based borrowing, while the platform continues to prepare further product upgrades and lending features.

Pierre Samaties outlines July progress across the Internet Computer

Pierre Samaties has released a July update outlining a series of product launches, infrastructure developments and ecosystem milestones across the Internet Computer, with projects including Caffeine AI, OISY, MULTI/DEX and Cloud Engines featuring prominently in the month’s progress report.

The update, shared on social media, presented July as a month focused on product delivery and developer activity, while also pointing to several initiatives expected to continue into August.

Caffeine AI was among the projects highlighted, with Samaties pointing to a new brand identity, a business subscription plan, expanded “Anything” functionality, availability on the AWS Marketplace and inclusion in the Claude MCP connector directory.

OISY was also listed among the month’s releases, including version 2.5, Liquidium loan integration, OISY Trade and encrypted Notes. Samaties said ICP had become the largest asset on the Liquidium platform.

The MULTI/DEX project was reported to have launched a game mode and recorded simulated trading activity, with Season I leaderboard rewards completed and plans for Season II to include source code releases and larger prize pools.

Cloud Engines was described as preparing an open software suite covering accounting, human resources, email and customer relationship management, with AI customisation features. Samaties said the service was approaching general availability, although some features were still being activated before a broader public rollout.

Responding to a user who questioned whether Cloud Engines had delivered anything tangible, Samaties said live working cloud engines could already be booked through OpenCloud and that the remaining launch elements related to broader public availability rather than the underlying functionality.

Another development highlighted was the beta release of ICP MCP, which Samaties said would allow AI agents to operate across multiple Internet Computer applications through a single interface. He pointed to demonstrations involving on-chain gaming activity as an early example of how AI agents could interact across decentralised applications.

Beyond individual product updates, Samaties listed broader network metrics, including claims that the Internet Computer had become the second most active blockchain network by daily transactions, while also referencing protocol inflation reduction efforts, a redesigned NNS application interface and a sovereign chat application pilot in Pakistan.

He also said a separate announcement had been completed but remained under a public relations embargo until mid-August.

The post prompted discussion about the relationship between technical progress and the market performance of the ICP token. One user argued that continued price weakness reflected a lack of trust or adoption.

Samaties responded that development activity and token price often diverge in cryptocurrency markets, arguing that protocol performance, sovereign cloud deployments and real-world applications were better indicators of long-term adoption than short-term market movements.

The exchange continued with a broader discussion about market psychology, with another participant arguing that falling prices could affect trust, visibility and adoption. Samaties agreed that price influenced perception but said the ecosystem’s focus should remain on building applications, improving infrastructure and expanding the developer base.

He also referred to “Mission 70”, saying additional ideas for reducing inflation would be proposed through the Network Nervous System governance process.

Another user raised the issue of tokenised real-world assets, suggesting that the Internet Computer should place greater emphasis on that sector. Samaties pointed to ORIGYN as one of the projects working in that area.

Questions were also raised about future integration of other ecosystem tokens into the redesigned NNS application. Samaties said improved representation for SNS projects was on the agenda, although he said there was no confirmed shipping date.

The update reflects a broader push within the Internet Computer community to highlight product releases, AI integration and infrastructure development, while acknowledging that adoption, token performance and ecosystem growth remain separate but closely watched measures of progress.
