Avalanche founder warns AI may expose XRP Ledger security flaws before cryptography breaks

Avalanche founder Emin Gün Sirer has cautioned that artificial intelligence could soon identify and exploit undiscovered security vulnerabilities within the XRP Ledger, raising fresh concerns over blockchain safety. Sirer, a respected computer scientist and entrepreneur known for his work in decentralized systems and consensus protocols, believes that the threat posed by AI-driven attacks on blockchain software may surpass worries about new breakthroughs in cryptography. Sirer suggested that the cryptocurrency industry’s current preoccupation with advances in cryptography overlooks a more immediate risk: the possibility that modern AI models could detect and exploit critical software bugs.
