Odaily News — Web3 security firm CertiK today officially released its Intel3D report, "The Rise of AI Employees: How Agentic AI Is Reshaping Cybersecurity, Anti-Money Laundering, and Compliance." The report notes that AI is transitioning from an assistive tool that helps analysts identify issues to a member of the working team capable of conducting investigations, making judgments, and executing remediation tasks within defined permissions. This shift is reshaping security and compliance processes across traditional finance and Web3, and is also raising new requirements for how enterprises supervise AI, define permission boundaries, and allocate responsibility.

The report also cautions that model misjudgments, prompt injection, and adversaries' exploitation of AI may introduce new risks. As AI begins to hold and trade digital assets, its own behavior must also be subject to audit. CertiK recommends that enterprises establish governance mechanisms covering permission boundaries, human approval, decision records, and division of responsibilities, and conduct regular red-team testing; these mechanisms must be improved in tandem with AI's execution capabilities to support "AI employees" in continuously creating value for security and compliance work under supervision and accountability.

Odaily News — According to market sources, the U.S. Treasury Department has withdrawn its previous crypto regulatory proposal targeting unhosted wallets and convertible virtual currency (CVC) mixing services. The proposal had aimed to expand the scope of monitoring crypto transaction activity, including requiring financial institutions to collect and report information related to unhosted wallets and crypto mixing services.

Odaily reports: Grayscale's parent company DCG posted on X platform that last week the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed reforming the accredited investor system, allowing certain investors to qualify for participation in private markets through examinations and other means. This measure was similar to a suggestion made by DCG founder Barry Silbert as early as 2011.

It is reported that around 2011, while founding SecondMarket, Barry Silbert proposed that the SEC's "accredited investor" system mainly relies on income and net worth standards, but wealth level does not necessarily represent investment capability. Some high-net-worth individuals may not possess sufficient financial knowledge, while some ordinary investors should also have the opportunity to qualify for participation in private markets if they pass financial literacy tests set by regulators.

Odaily News: On-chain detective ZachXBT posted on X that he once posed as a client to infiltrate a criminal group suspected of laundering money for the North Korea-backed hacker organization Lazarus Group, and assisted in freezing funds related to the 2025 Bybit attack.

ZachXBT stated that after Bybit suffered a $1.5 billion attack in February 2025, he discovered that more than 15 accounts in public Telegram and Discord groups were seeking help processing transactions related to the stolen funds. He subsequently contacted one of the Telegram users using the alias "Jimmy Green" and built trust through multiple transactions. According to his disclosure, on March 6, 2025, he transferred $3.497 million in USDC to an Ethereum address for a USDC-to-TRON-chain USDT exchange transaction with the counterparty. The source of gas funds for that address can be traced back to the Bybit attack funds and was publicly flagged as a Bybit attack blacklisted address.

ZachXBT said that in subsequent communications, the counterparty revealed that their team had been involved in processing the stolen Bybit funds and disclosed in advance that the funds would be moved across chains including Solana. By matching transaction timing, amounts, and on-chain data, he identified a wallet cluster involving more than $12 million in Bybit attack funds, with fund paths spanning multiple networks including BTC→ETH→SOL→TRON. Approximately 442,000 USDT was frozen by Tether, and the group also attempted to launder money through Uniswap liquidity pools and low-liquidity tokens. Additionally, the counterparty disclosed having helped other clients process approximately $3 million in fraudulent proceeds, and ZachXBT traced the related funds to wallets associated with the sanctioned Huione Guarantee.

ZachXBT revealed that in this investigation, he initially invested $3.497 million and bore a loss risk of approximately 5% per transaction. The intelligence ultimately obtained was provided to relevant investigative agencies and law enforcement authorities at the earliest opportunity. Since 2022, he has assisted in freezing over $75 million in funds related to North Korea-linked incidents.
