Silence Laboratories has launched a digital asset vault designed to withstand future quantum computer attacks. The system integrates the NIST 2024 ML-DSA post-quantum digital signature standard with Multi-Party Computation - MPC - systems. This allows institutions to improve security without needing to overhaul their current setup.

The infrastructure uses Google Cloud Confidential Computing and Trusted Execution Environments to protect key-share operations at the hardware level. This layered approach helps secure assets against cloud and host system risks. Partners like Bitgo, EigenLayer, Zengo, and Infosys are among those testing the technology. This model offers a way for firms to adopt quantum-resistant cryptography while keeping the operational benefits of distributed control.

StepDrainer is a malware-as-a-service kit targeting over 20 networks including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, and Polygon. The tool uses fake pop-ups mimicking Web3Modal, Seaport, and Permit v2 to obtain wallet approvals. Once connected, it automatically transfers high-value tokens to attacker wallets. It avoids security scans by using changing scripts and decentralized on-chain accounts.

Researchers also found EtherRAT malware targeting Windows users via a fake Tftpd64 tool. It runs background checks on system settings before starting theft. Over 500 Ethereum wallets were recently drained of $800,000 within 24 hours. Many affected wallets were inactive for seven years. Funds were moved to a single address and swapped via ThorChain.

Morgan Stanley executive Amy Oldenburg says it is possible for major banks to add Bitcoin to their balance sheets. At a Bitcoin 2026 panel, she noted that regulatory progress over the last 16 months makes this move more realistic.

Global systemically important banks still face several hurdles. These institutions must satisfy multiple regulators, including the Federal Reserve and the Basel Committee. Current Basel standards require a 1,250% risk-weight for unbacked crypto assets, which makes direct holdings expensive. A review of these rules is expected by late 2026.

While accounting rules like SAB 121 have evolved, banks need more alignment on safety and capital planning. US agencies now offer technology-neutral treatment for tokenized securities, but BTC does not currently qualify. Direct balance sheet exposure depends on future regulatory shifts and economic incentives.
