forklog.media Developer Announces Bitcoin Hard Fork and Distribution of Satoshi’s Coins

Bitcoin developer Paul Sztorc has announced the launch of a hard fork of the original cryptocurrency network, named eCash. The deployment of the alternative blockchain is scheduled for August 2026. BREAKING: New Bitcoin ForkI am helping create a **new Bitcoin Hardfork** — dropping this August, called "eCash".— Your coins will split. For example, if you have 4.19 BTC, then you will get 4.19 eCash.— You may sell your eCash — or keep it. Or ignore it!Vegas:— Yes, I…— Paul Sztorc (@Truthcoin) April 24, 2026 According to the announcement, the project is conceived as a "clean" reboot of Bitcoin, retaining the network's basic architecture. BTC holders at the time of the snapshot will receive new coins at a 1:1 ratio. "You can sell your eCash, keep it, or ignore it," noted Sztorc. What is Known About eCash According to the developer, the blockchain uses an almost unchanged codebase of the main Bitcoin Core client and will maintain the SHA-256 consensus algorithm. However, initially, the mining difficulty will be reset to "minimal value."     The project includes support for L2 infrastructure in the form of drivechains. Sztorc is the author of this concept, but his proposals BIP-300 and BIP-301 have not gained widespread support after years of discussion. The programmer noted that seven drivechains are in development, including one focused on privacy "in the style of zCash." Among other planned L2s, he highlighted Truthcoin (prediction markets), CoinShift (decentralized exchange), BitAssets (NFTs and other assets), BitNames (identification), and the quantum-resistant Photon. Sztorc emphasized that he intentionally removed the word Bitcoin from the network's name to distance it from the fate of the 2017 BCH fork. In his view, the new blockchain, unlike Bitcoin Cash, offers a "permanent and sustainable solution to Bitcoin's problems." "In 2017, the BTC tech stack was strong, as were expectations for Lightning [Network]. Today, it's the opposite," Sztorc believes. Controversial Decision The creator of eCash announced the distribution of part (up to half) of ~1.1 million BTC stored in the so-called "Patoshi miner wallets." These coins are attributed to Bitcoin's creator Satoshi Nakamoto, but their true owner is unknown. The idea has drawn sharp criticism from some in the community, who view the initiative as a violation of the fundamental principle of property immutability. Outside of whatever drama may unfold:1. Taking Satoshi coins is theft and disrespectful. 2. eCash is already used for Lightning payments with Cashu and Fedi.Those are poor choices.— Peter McCormack 🏴‍☠️🇬🇧🇮🇪 (@PeterMcCormack) April 24, 2026 "Taking Satoshi's coins is theft and disrespect. Moreover, eCash is already used for Lightning payments in Cashu and Fedi. These are poor choices," wrote podcaster Peter McCormack. One user questioned what would happen if the real owner of the "Patoshi coins" later emerged. Sztorc acknowledged that the decision regarding the assets is controversial but called it "actually perfect." The distribution of coins allows investors to engage with the fork and launch it as a "ready project," rather than another "zombie network," the developer emphasized. "I'll give you two or three years before a complete collapse, and I'll finally try drivechains on Bitcoin, but without a fork using the most inefficient script stuff," stated a commentator under the nickname PacoVM. In April, the community was outraged by a radical plan to protect Bitcoin from quantum computers. The initiative BIP-361, proposed by Casa founder Jameson Lopp and a group of experts, suggests freezing vulnerable coins.

forklog.media Why Bitget is blending crypto, forex and AI

In this episode of “Deconstruction”, using Bitget as a case study, we examine how crypto exchanges are turning into global financial super-apps. Together with Bitget’s CIS marketing manager, Liliya Malikova, we discussed in detail the main trends at the intersection of Web3 and TradFi. ForkLog (FL): In recent years exchanges have moved onto the turf of traditional brokers. What motivated this decision for Bitget in particular? Liliya Malikova (L. M.): On the one hand, our task is to keep users and assets within a single ecosystem so people do not have to jump between a bunch of other apps. On the other, we see real demand: people do not want to just trade crypto; they want to build a broader portfolio. It is a logical step in our evolution, where we view the market more broadly and meet financial needs on a single universal platform. FL: Who in the CIS market is most interested in new instruments now? L. M.: In the CIS, most of the audience came into crypto a few years ago, lived through cycles and now want their financial result not to depend solely on crypto. Our target audience already lives in a digital environment and is simply looking for an expanded toolkit. We also see traders from traditional brokers, who note how fast, high-tech and convenient our platform is. FL: Users are accustomed to memecoin volatility and quick 10x returns. What challenges do you face when offering them conventional equities and indices? L. M.: The crypto audience is used to rapid moves, so buying stocks often seems uninteresting to the new generation because of the market’s slower pace. We just change the framing: we do not suggest replacing crypto with stocks; we offer a tool to ride out a bear cycle more safely. In general, traders do not care much what they trade, as long as they can balance risks efficiently. FL: What is the business goal behind integrating MetaTrader 5 (MT5)? L. M.: MT5 is a familiar environment for a vast number of professional traders, and the first goal is to open the door for them to a crypto exchange. The second goal is to give our current crypto users an alternative interface with more metrics and algorithms. We did not significantly change the core Bitget app; we simply expanded the ecosystem by adding a TradFi button. FL: MT5 is associated with algo-trading. Are you seeing users porting their forex robots to the crypto market? L. M.: There is interest, and because MT5 is historically linked to sophisticated strategies, we do notice a spike in robot use by advanced traders. However, the crypto market differs in the structure of its moves, so algorithms do not transfer one-to-one, and you cannot just copy old forex code. We do not think everyone will move en masse into algo-trading; it is simply another convenient window for experienced users. FL: Bitget has introduced contracts for difference (CFD). Which traditional asset classes draw the most interest in the CIS? L. M.: The most popular assets across regions are gold, oil and classic indices. In the CIS, gold is traditionally perceived as a defensive asset, and indices attract traders because they are highly volatile on macro news. US stocks draw the least attention right now; people mostly prefer the S&P 500 and other fundamental instruments. FL: What are the risks of CFDs, and could a major market crash like in October 2025 happen again? L. M.: The risk is high, especially if you enter this instrument chasing quick multiples: leverage works both ways, and mistakes are very painful. Our main task is to explain the mechanics of margin and liquidations to users, because CFDs are intended exclusively for mature traders. At the same time, gold will not drop 90% in a few hours, unlike altcoins, and the probability of the contract price decoupling from the underlying asset is extremely low. FL: How effective is artificial intelligence for crypto trading? L. M.: The main misconception is that AI will become a “money button” — there is no miracle; it simply analyses deep layers of data and helps make decisions faster. AI is useful because it delivers quick answers amid information noise, builds a plan and reminds you about risks. But the final responsibility for the trade and understanding risk management always lie with the trader. FL: Tell us what GetClaw is and how it works. L. M.: It is an AI agent that lets you operate your exchange account directly in a Telegram chat via an API key, without logging into the app. In the chat you can check your balance or issue a text command to buy, sell and withdraw assets from staking. I think this is the future of the entire industry, where these agents, not people, will be the ones trading via the platform. FL: Do you use AI-based tools inside the company itself? L. M.: To remain consistently among market leaders, we must accelerate with AI: the first draft of content and creatives is already generated via neural networks. Support is also partially automated, where the first filter of enquiries is handled by an algorithm, and we use AI for marketing analytics. At the same time, sensitive legal communications and our public position always remain the personal responsibility of the team. FL: Why have people suddenly started trading on prediction markets en masse, and why is AI analytics needed there? L. M.: Prediction markets have become a very human type of trading: a user does not need to know wave analysis; they simply place a bet based on how they feel. AI analytics are needed mainly to help structure information and avoid drowning in the massive noise around world events. Artificial intelligence gathers context, but the final investment decision still rests with the user. FL: Could crypto exchanges eventually replace traditional banks and retail brokers entirely? L. M.: Our exchange has an ambitious goal: by 2030 to take 40% of the traditional finance market, and thanks to fiat crypto channels we really can replace banks. In future the ideal user portfolio will include a core (bitcoin, stocks, gold) and a risk layer of altcoins. Tactical TradFi instruments will give traders stability, so people will build more sophisticated and resilient portfolios. The conversation has been significantly abridged.

forklog.media Bitwarden CLI hack, arrest of illicit debt collectors in Kyiv, and other cybersecurity news

We have compiled the week's most important cybersecurity news. North Korean hackers stole $12m in crypto in three months using AI tools. A former ransomware negotiator turned out to be an accomplice. UK intelligence: 100 governments have access to commercial spyware. An infostealer was planted in Bitwarden’s developer-facing password manager. North Korean hackers stole $12m in crypto in three months using AI tools Over three months, the North Korean hacking group HexagonalRodent stole about $12m in cryptocurrency and infected more than 2,000 Web3 developers’ machines to steal credentials and gain access to crypto wallets, said Expel cybersecurity specialist Marcus Hutchins. The campaign relied on “vibe coding” — generating malware and infrastructure via text prompts to AI systems: using Anima’s AI web-design tools, the hackers built sites for non-existent IT firms; victims were lured with fake job listings and asked to complete a “test assignment” that contained malware; all code and correspondence in flawless English were generated with ChatGPT and Cursor. Snippet of the hackers’ code. Source: Expel.  The expert analysed the hackers’ infrastructure, which they inadvertently left exposed. Their prompts and a database of victims’ wallets leaked online. Hutchins noted the code was filled with English comments and emojis — a clear sign the software was entirely generated by a LLM. Hutchins argues that in 2026 Pyongyang made a qualitative leap by using AI to automate every stage of its cyberattacks, turning low-skilled operators into a scaled cyberthreat. HexagonalRodent’s work is only part of North Korea’s broader strategy to automate crime, corroborated by reports from other technology firms: Microsoft reported that North Korean operators use AI to generate fake documents, research vulnerabilities and conduct social engineering; Anthropic said it blocked attempts by DPRK agents to use the Claude model to refine malware. In comments to WIRED, representatives of OpenAI, Cursor and Anima confirmed misuse of their services. They said accounts linked to the hackers had been blocked; the investigation will help prevent similar incidents. A former ransomware negotiator turned out to be an accomplice Angelo Martino, formerly a ransomware negotiator at cybersecurity firm DigitalMint, pleaded guilty to aiding cybercriminals, the US Department of Justice said. Martino admitted he played both sides in five separate incidents. While ostensibly working for victims, he passed confidential information to operators of the ALPHV/BlackCat malware and supplied details such as insurance coverage limits and victims’ negotiation strategies. Investigators found that Martino maximised the payouts to criminals and took a cut. The ALPHV/BlackCat group operated a CaaS model, in which the gang builds and maintains file-encrypting software while “affiliates” deploy it in attacks and share profits with the developers. In 2023, law enforcement seized the gang’s dark-web site and released a decryptor that helped more than 500 victims restore systems. In 2025, other DigitalMint employees — Kevin Tyler Martin and Ryan Clifford Goldberg — aided the same criminals. Together with Martino they earned over $1.2m from just one victim.  Martino pleaded guilty to extortion and faces up to 20 years in prison. Authorities seized $10m in assets from him. UK intelligence: 100 governments have access to commercial spyware According to British intelligence, more than half of the world’s governments have access to software capable of hacking devices to steal confidential information, Politico reports. Media say the barrier to obtaining such surveillance technology has fallen. The number of countries potentially possessing these hacking tools has risen to 100, up from 80 known in 2023. Commercial spyware developed by private firms — such as Pegasus from NSO Group — often relies on vulnerabilities in phone and computer software. Governments say these tools are used only on devices of suspects in serious crimes, including terrorism. In recent years, the “circle of victims” has widened from political critics, opponents and journalists to bankers and wealthy businesspeople, according to UK intelligence. In the US, ICE is actively using the Israeli-made Graphite tool. Acting agency director Todd Lyons confirmed this to NPR. According to him, law enforcement uses the software to fight foreign terrorist organisations and fentanyl traffickers who rely on encrypted messengers. The tool can access messages on a phone without any need to click links (zero-click). An infostealer was planted in Bitwarden’s developer CLI On 22 April 2026, the official npm package of the Bitwarden command-line interface (CLI), version 2026.4.0, was compromised. The repository contained a build with malicious code to steal developers’ credentials. Several security firms analysed the supply-chain compromise and assessed the incident: JFrog experts found the package used a custom loader, bw_setup.js, to stealthily execute a spying script. The malware collected npm and GitHub tokens, SSH keys, and credentials for AWS, Azure and Google Cloud; OX Security discovered that the encrypted stolen data were exfiltrated by automatically creating public repositories on the victim’s GitHub account. The repos were tagged “Shai-Hulud: The Third Coming,” and the malware could self-propagate; Socket confirmed the malware targeted CI/CD infrastructure. It also found technical links to the recent supply-chain compromise at Checkmarx. The attack is attributed to the TeamPCP group, previously behind large campaigns against developers of Trivy and LiteLLM. Experts strongly urged developers to rotate all keys and tokens immediately if they interacted with the affected CLI. Bitwarden removed the tainted version just 90 minutes after the attack began and confirmed that user vaults and passwords remained safe.

Kyiv police detained a gang of debt collectors who extorted cryptocurrency using bot farms In Kyiv, law enforcement detained fraudsters who used the Bitcapital and Crypsee platforms to provide crypto loans. Debtors and their relatives were harassed with AI-generated abusive content and a bot farm with 6,000 SIM cards, the Cyber Police of Ukraine reported. According to investigators, the group set up a call centre in Dnipro and had operated since 2023 under cover of companies registered in the UK and Cyprus. Operators phoned debtors and, using fake data and voice-changing software, demanded repayment. Even when clients repaid on time, the criminals invented non-existent debts. They then extorted money through threats and blackmail. The bot farm was used to generate and disseminate degrading content featuring victims’ data and photos — as well as those of their relatives and colleagues — and to place systematic threatening phone calls. Source: Cyber Police of Ukraine. At any one time, a separate group of two to six people could “work” a victim, tailoring approaches to individual vulnerabilities. On success, each took a cut of the funds extorted. Police carried out 44 searches in Dnipropetrovsk region and Kyiv. More than 80 mobile phones, computer equipment, cash, documents, seals and bot farms were seized. Preliminary damages exceed 5m hryvnia (about $113,000 at the time of writing). The suspects face up to 12 years in prison. Also on ForkLog: Tether froze $344m in USDT at the request of the US. In the UK, raids were conducted to crack down on illicit P2P crypto trading. Cybersecurity experts warned of a new wave of DPRK attacks. Bloomberg reported unauthorised access to the Mythos AI model. Hackers attacked Volo and drained $3.5m from WBTC and USDC pools. Reporters learned of a new scheme to extort bitcoin for passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Arbitrum froze 30,000 ETH as part of the Kelp hack investigation. Eth.limo regained control of its domain after the easyDNS breach. The Kelp protocol lost $293m after a cross-chain bridge attack. What to read this weekend? For a long time, the use of cyberweapons for espionage was seen as the domain of a narrow circle of intelligence services. But a US investigation into Operation Zero exposed the scale of trading in zero-day vulnerabilities. On states’ shadow markets and the price of hacks — in ForkLog’s new feature.
