According to BlockBeats, Nic Carter, co-founder of Castle Island Ventures and known as the father of smart contracts, has highlighted concerns regarding the potential threat quantum computing poses to Bitcoin. Carter referenced research by renowned quantum theorist Scott Aaronson, which suggests that quantum computing could potentially crack Bitcoin, presenting a formidable engineering challenge rather than requiring new fundamental physics discoveries. Carter noted that theoretically, Bitcoin could undergo a soft fork to adopt post-quantum (PQ) signature schemes. While some quantum-resistant encryption signature schemes exist, the main challenge lies in determining the specific post-quantum solution, organizing the soft fork, and laboriously migrating millions of addresses with balances. The mitigation measures necessary to protect Bitcoin from quantum computing threats could take nearly a decade to implement. Furthermore, a significant amount of vulnerable Bitcoin is stored in abandoned addresses, whose owners cannot be compelled to move their Bitcoin. As a result, even if Bitcoin upgrades to post-quantum signatures, it still faces the risk of 1.7 million Bitcoins being suddenly stolen by quantum attackers. To eliminate this risk, Bitcoin not only needs to upgrade in an orderly and timely manner, but Bitcoin holders must also collectively agree to seize these 1.7 million Bitcoins, an unprecedented action in Bitcoin's history. Carter urges the Bitcoin community and developers to take immediate mitigation measures rather than adopting a complacent or overly optimistic attitude towards the quantum computing threat.

Bitcoin failed to hold the key $92,000 price level over the past month and is currently hovering below $90,000. Some traders believe the recent price decline is due to market manipulation, while others attribute it to increased market concerns about the artificial intelligence industry. However, analysts believe a significant factor limiting Bitcoin's price increases is the Federal Reserve's plan to shrink its balance sheet for most of 2025. This move is draining liquidity from financial markets. Although there are clear signs that the Fed is shifting towards a more accommodative monetary policy, traders are uncertain whether the Fed can lower interest rates below 3.5% in 2026. With investor risk aversion rising, Bitcoin is unlikely to serve as a hedge in the short term. (Bloomingbit)

According to Foresight News, Delphi Digital has released its '2026 Market Outlook' report, highlighting a shift in the global macroeconomic environment from divergence to convergence. The report notes that major central banks have begun to lower interest rates, while fiscal deficits are driving an increased demand for liquidity. As the Federal Reserve's quantitative tightening nears its end, the U.S. Treasury's general account may decline, and the People's Bank of China is expected to enhance its support, leading to an anticipated improvement in global liquidity by 2026. The report also suggests that while the market may not experience the same level of liquidity as in 2020, conditions are now more conducive to a clearer and more predictable easing pace. It is expected that major central bank policies will start to align, with deficit spending driving greater debt monetization. Furthermore, the report indicates that global M2 money supply and gold prices have reached new highs, with central banks continuing to purchase gold, signaling a persistent trend of currency depreciation. Historically, gold and liquidity indicators have often preceded Bitcoin, suggesting that assets like Bitcoin could benefit from these trends.
