Bitcoin Core updates security policy as AI makes bug discovery easier
Bitcoin Core has updated its security disclosure policy, saying that keeping certain vulnerabilities secret no longer provides much protection now that AI-assisted bug hunting makes flaws easier to find. The change affects how the project handles and discloses security issues rather than altering Bitcoin's protocol or supply. Traders may see it as a governance and security-process update with no direct price catalyst, though it speaks to the network's long-term resilience.
