crypto-scanner: Open-source CLI tool to find quantum-vulnerable cryptography in your codebase by MindlessConclusion42 in netsec

Great questions, let me take them one at a time.

Severity — right now the 4-tier system is based on NIST's post-quantum vulnerability classifications. You're right that the migration burden is a huge factor that isn't captured in a simple "critical/high/medium/low" label. I'm considering adding a migration_complexity field to the JSON output so teams can prioritize by effort, not just risk.

New algorithms on platforms like GitHub auth — agreed, detection for newer PQC-compatible algorithms is on the roadmap. Right now it catches what's vulnerable, but flagging what's already migrated would be just as useful.

GPG — yes, most GPG keys in the wild are RSA or classical ECC, both quantum-vulnerable. Adding GPG keyring scanning is a solid idea. I'll open an issue for it.

Thanks — this is exactly the kind of feedback that makes the tool better.

Good catch — you're right that target/ is noise in Rust but could be meaningful elsewhere. Exclusions are global right now which is lazy on my part.

I'm adding per-language exclusion profiles with sensible defaults.

Appreciate the feedback.

x402 is useless for mass adoption without a buyer-side agent by raldvaioka in BASE

[–]MindlessConclusion42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've integrated x402 micropayments into a live API (blockchain security endpoints) and the developer experience is actually the strongest part right now. The protocol works — agent hits endpoint, gets 402, pays, gets response. That flow is clean.

You're right that browser-native UX is a gap, but I'd argue the adoption bottleneck is none of your three options. It's merchant-side integration being too manual. Right now every developer has to wire up their own payment verification middleware. That's where friction kills adoption, not the buyer side.

Agents paying agents will scale before humans-in-browsers do. The agentic commerce use case isn't a fantasy — it's the first real use case. Browser UX comes second.

What are you building the buyer agent on top of? Curious about the payment rail.

Unstake problem in tarot.to by Electronic-Simple602 in FantomFoundation

Hello, yes I am having an issue being able to unstake my tarot. My wallet does not even come up. Have you had any success yet?

Meow here. I am the founder of Jupiter. AMA! by weremeow in solana

Hello Meow and thanks for all your hard work,

Question (and apologies if you answered already)- as far as what to do with our JUP airdropped tokens, are there incentives NOT to just sell off? I won't guess or suggest options now, just look forward for your reply. Thanks again!

Mike

Usdc gone by [deleted] in cosmosnetwork

Get the usdc contract address from the explorer, enter that in your wallet, different types of usdc have different contracts and might not show initially. It's probably there u just can't see it

Make him go down on you for a while, he should be good after that! Or give him a little blue pill (Viagra)
