Security researcher Taylor Hornby plans to add Monero (XMR) to his audit queue after using Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.8 to expose a critical counterfeiting flaw in Zcash (ZEC).

Hornby confirmed the move when asked whether he could probe other privacy coins. His Zcash discovery erased roughly 30% from ZEC before developers shipped an emergency patch.
