Beating AI News Flash: Anthropic has partnered with formal verification firm Theorem to leverage Claude for auditing software vulnerabilities using mathematical methods. Traditional testing typically relies on repeatedly feeding random data to check if a program crashes, but no matter how many tests are run, it can never guarantee full coverage of all potential issues. This time, Claude directly generates mathematical proofs for programs, aiming to fundamentally eliminate specific types of errors. Within weeks, Claude verified 239 test entry points across 123 open-source libraries, generating around 180 million lines of proof code, which was then checked by the Rocq mathematical proof tool. The results showed that under the specified runtime environment, these programs would not trigger the crashes targeted by the tests when handling any input smaller than 64 MB. During the proof process, Claude also discovered and fixed hundreds of bugs. For example, a decompression program would only suffer a memory out-of-bounds write when processing roughly 20 MB of data with an extremely specific structure. Another image decoding vulnerability required 64 MB of input and over 2 GB of memory to trigger—scenarios extremely hard to catch with standard random testing. This type of mathematical verification was historically extremely time-consuming. For instance, the seL4 operating system kernel required around 2 years of full-time human effort for development, but its mathematical verification took roughly 20 years—10 times the development workload.

According to official announcements, the dYdX Treasury SubDAO has increased its delegated staking to 100.76 million DYDX tokens, including repurchased tokens in delegation for the first time. The SubDAO released the results of its seventh periodic staking plan review, noting that 25 transactions were approved in this round to adjust the delegation configuration of 25,873,915 DYDX. For the first time, 10,719,308 DYDX purchased via the repurchase program were added to the delegation, lifting the Treasury SubDAO’s total delegated staking from 90,041,355 DYDX to 100,760,663 DYDX. The adjustment also covers reallocation of existing delegations. Earlier, as the active validator set shrank from 31 to 21 on September 17, around 8.34 million DYDX were delegated to validators outside the active set, rendering them ineligible for rewards. The Treasury SubDAO consequently reallocated the relevant staked assets and raised its focus on validators’ governance participation: validators that have not participated in or abstained from governance votes recently will receive less new delegation.
