Gnosis2026-10-12 08:40:13Gnosis co-founder says top Google result for Safe was a scam adGnosis co-founder Martin Köppelmann said a sponsored Google search result for "gnosis safe" led users to a polished phishing clone of the Safe wallet website. According to his post on X, the ad appeared as Safe.global in search results but redirected users to the spoofed domain wallet-safe.global after being clicked. He said the fake site copied the interface of Safe, the multisig wallet that manages more than $60 billion in assets. Köppelmann said the risk begins once a user connects a wallet and signs a transaction or message. At that point, the phishing site can submit an approval request designed to drain funds from the account. He also criticized Google, saying the company often suspends ads from legitimate crypto projects while continuing to sell premium ad placement to scammers. The report noted that this was not an isolated case. In August this year, a fake Trezor wallet ad also appeared at the top of Google search results, and the related address received about 24 BTC. The security advice cited in the report was straightforward: avoid clicking results marked as sponsored, bookmark official websites, and verify domain names carefully before connecting a wallet.40
Polymarket2026-10-06 02:24:26Polymarket launches Protocol V2 with single ERC1155 position contract replacing legacy Gnosis frameworkPolymarket has rolled out Protocol V2, a full rebuild of the smart contract infrastructure behind its prediction market platform and the first such overhaul since the protocol was built in-house. Announced by Polymarket protocol lead Rajath Alex on Oct. 6 via X, the new version replaces the older Gnosis Conditional Tokens Framework from 2019 with a single ERC1155 position contract. The redesign also unifies pUSD collateral, exchange execution, and routing under one architecture. According to the announcement, the previous system required extra adapters whenever a new market type was added, including separate components for pUSD, wrapped collateral for negative-risk positions, a second exchange, and even individual UMA modules tied to each adapter. Protocol V2 removes that layered setup by embedding market type, market identity, and outcome data directly into each position ID, allowing the protocol to read that data without auxiliary query contracts. The first release supports binary, atomic negative risk, incremental negative risk, and parlay markets. Polymarket also made cross-chain bridging a native feature in V2, covering positions, collateral, and resolution transport across chains, though it has not disclosed a launch date for multichain deployment. The protocol includes a new OracleAggregator compatible with UMA and Chainlink, has undergone audits by multiple firms including Certora formal verification, and carries a bug bounty of up to $5 million for critical issues.220
GnosisDAO2026-08-28 09:13:31GnosisDAO Passes GIP-154, Granting $15M in Stablecoins to Gnosis LtdGnosisDAO has approved GIP-154, a proposal that will provide Gnosis Ltd with $15 million in stablecoin funding over 12 months starting September 1, with payments made quarterly. The funds are designated to support the Ethereum Economic Zone (EEZ) buildout and continued R&D for Gnosis Chain and Gnosis Pay. The proposal also includes a $2 million working capital loan for Gnosis Pay, which must be repaid to the DAO. Gnosis confirmed the outcome in a post on X.1090
Gnosis2026-08-10 14:08:31GnosisDAO Proposes Spinning Off Gnosis App Into Independent CompanyGnosis has opened a governance vote on whether to spin off Gnosis App into a separate company managed by the original team. The proposal, dubbed GIP-152, is now live on Snapshot. Under its terms, GnosisDAO would invest $1.5 million in cash and contribute $1 million in products and intellectual property, resulting in a combined $2.5 million position in the SAFE protocol. This translates to a post-money valuation cap of $10 million, and in return the DAO would secure at least 25% equity. The new company would take over the Gnosis App's product and IP. The app is currently built on the Circles protocol and focuses on decentralized payments for users in Europe. According to the proposal, operating independently will help the product develop faster and get closer to product-market fit (PMF), a model that has been validated by other Gnosis-incubated projects like CoW and Safe. Voting is scheduled to end at 22:19 on August 12, with a quorum requirement of 75,000 votes. As of this writing, the vote has reached roughly 13.2% of the quorum, with 65.93% of ballots in favor.2000
