On April 1, according to Yahoo Finance, Bitcoin closed at $66,619 on Tuesday, down from an opening price of $87,508 on January 1, 2026. This quarterly decline is the largest since the first quarter of 2018, when Bitcoin fell from $14,112 to $6,973, a drop of 50%. The 24% decline this quarter continues the significant downturn from the fourth quarter of 2025, when its price slid 23% from $114,057 to $87,508. This means that in the past six months, the world's largest cryptocurrency has lost approximately 41.6% of its market value. The entire cryptocurrency market has further retreated from its historical high in October 2025 amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, dampening investor sentiment in both crypto and traditional stock markets. In addition to macroeconomic uncertainties, analysts have pointed out that the reversal of fund flows into U.S. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) has negatively impacted Bitcoin prices. According to SoSoValue data, there was a net outflow of $496.5 million from spot Bitcoin ETFs in the first quarter, with $1.8 billion flowing out in the first two months, partially offset by an inflow of $1.32 billion in March.

According to monitoring by 1M AI News, Boris Cherny, the father of Claude Code, responded on X to the source code leak incident, confirming that the cause was human error in the deployment process: "Our deployment process has several manual steps, and one of them was not done correctly." He stated that the team has made improvements and is adding more checks. The context of this response is quite significant. Last December, Cherny posted that "in the past 30 days, I have contributed 100% to Claude Code, all done by Claude Code." After the leak occurred, some users referenced this post to suggest that AI autonomously writing code was the root cause of the incident. Cherny's response directly refuted this association: the issue was precisely in the human manual operations. His reflection on this incident is: "Like other incidents, the counterintuitive solution is to find ways to accelerate, rather than adding more processes. This time it is more automation and letting Claude check the results." A human error ultimately points to the solution of increased AI involvement.
