Security researchers and developers begin benchmarking existing LLMs against the EVMbench dataset.
EVMbench Launch
OpenAI and Paradigm officially announce the release of the EVMbench framework for AI agent evaluation.
As quantum computing capabilities advance toward 'Q-Day,' the cryptographic foundations of the world's leading blockchain networks face an existential threat. This briefing evaluates the specific vulnerabilities of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP and the architectural shifts required to maintain security in a post-quantum era.
OpenAI and crypto venture firm Paradigm have introduced EVMbench, an evaluation framework designed to measure the proficiency of AI agents in identifying and remediating vulnerabilities within Ethereum smart contracts. This collaboration marks a significant step toward automating the auditing process for decentralized applications, potentially reducing the frequency of high-profile DeFi exploits.
This page surfaces every story mentioning Ethereum across our cybersecurity coverage. We track each entity's appearance over time so readers can trace how the narrative evolves — which developments are isolated incidents, which build into longer arcs, and which reframe how operators in the space think about the entity. Story selection uses the same multi-source verification gate applied across the rest of our coverage.
Read our editorial methodology for how we identify, deduplicate, and score entity references. Our glossary defines the technical terms used across stories on this page, and our trends index contextualizes individual developments against the longer-running cybersecurity beat. Cross-entity comparisons live on our compare view.
| What you see | What it tells you |
