Future quantum computers could crack the private keys that guard cryptocurrency wallets, Europol said in a report published Wednesday. For Bitcoin wallets whose public keys are already visible, the EU police agency says no cryptographic fix exists. Europol rejects claims that quantum computing will collapse crypto. Its warning is narrower, and falls on individual holders rather than the network. Why Europol Says Wallets, Not the Blockchain, Are the Weak Point Every Bitcoin (BTC) wallet runs on a pair of linked codes. Anyone can see the public key, while the private key authorizes spending. A powerful enough quantum computer could work…

Cryptocurrency trading is becoming a game of “irrational exuberance” as traders race to be among the earliest investors to find the next 100x token, according to Shayne Coplan, the CEO of prediction market platform Polymarket.“People think they’re buying something, it’s worthless, but they’re buying it. If it can go to 100X, they want to sell it before it goes back to zero,” said Coplan during a fireside chat at Token2049 Singapore on Wednesday. Coplan said that some traders can generate significant wealth through this strategy, but added that it is a “game of irrational exuberance and hot potato” where asset prices…

Was the US government behind this major liquidation event? Although BTC was halted at $87,000 once again at the start of the business week, it still managed to hold relatively stable at over $85,600 before the bears took complete control for less than half an hour earlier this morning and drove it south by $2,000. Naturally, such a violent move spiked the liquidations, as the total value of wrecked positions rocketed to over $550 million on a daily scale. $430 million came in the past 4 hours alone, and almost all were from longs. Interestingly, ETH longs are responsible for…

A US state bank has put a dollar-backed stablecoin on Solana, and our AI model predicts that SOL holds its breakout while institutional stories like this one keep arriving. Roughrider Coin went live in October 2026. VersaBank USA issues it. The Bank of North Dakota provides governance oversight. That second name is the unusual part. The Bank of North Dakota is the only state-owned bank in the United States, founded in 1919. This is not a startup running a pilot. It is a public institution with a century of deposit-taking behind it. The choice of chain matters too. A bank…
