According to BlockBeats, on September 9th, Liquid Network released an emergency version of Elements v23.3.4. Functional nodes are immediately upgrading, and all Liquid node operators are advised to update accordingly. This version fixes a proof verification cache vulnerability, enhances security by strengthening the cached key used for range proofs, and has undergone multiple rounds of internal and external reviews by teams including the Bitcoin Red Team and Alpen Labs.

Liquid Network also announced its initial recovery plan: first, block production will resume while anchoring operations remain suspended; then, verified and valid transactions will be re-executed; and anchoring operations will resume once the network is fully restored and funds have been returned. Blockstream is currently testing the first two phases in parallel, and the specific order and implementation methods may be adjusted based on the test results.

Liquid Network also warns that scammers have taken advantage of this to set up fake update websites. Users should only refer to official Liquid Network and Blockstream channels and never transfer money to strangers or disclose their private keys or mnemonic phrases.

According to BlockBeats, on September 9th, Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, stated that as Bitcoin matures, its price volatility has significantly decreased. Bitcoin's early realized annualized volatility was approximately 125%, but over the past year it has averaged only about 40%, approaching the levels of the "Big Seven" US tech stocks.

In comparison, Zcash's market capitalization is only about 1% of Bitcoin's, and ZEC's price volatility averaged about 140% over the past year. Based on current volatility, assuming a covered call option strategy for Zcash, the implied annualized return on the premium income would be approximately 70%, while a similar strategy for Bitcoin would yield approximately 30%.

Pandl cautions that higher potential returns come with higher risks; if the spot price falls more than the premium received, a covered call strategy can still result in a loss of principal. Investors seeking a clearer risk-reward structure may consider going long on call or put options.
