Bitcoin should prepare now, even if quantum is a 'lab experiment’: Adam Back

Blockstream CEO Adam Back, an early pioneer of the crypto movement, said Bitcoiners should be looking at building quantum-resistant solutions now, even if the threat is still decades away.

“Quantum computing still has a lot to prove. Current systems are essentially lab experiments. I’ve followed the field for over 25 years, and progress has been incremental,” Back said at Paris Blockchain Week on Tuesday.

“That said, Bitcoin should prepare,” Back said, adding that the “safest approach” is to build optional upgrades that allow migration to quantum-resistant cryptography if needed.

Concerns that quantum computers could eventually break blockchain cryptography have fueled industry-wide fear that bad actors could use it to break into crypto wallets, plunging the market into chaos.

Back said in November that the quantum threat is still 20 to 40 years away, while explaining to Bloomberg earlier this month that today’s quantum computers are slower than calculators.

Despite this, his Bitcoin development company, Blockstream, has a dedicated quantum team researching potential threat vectors to the Bitcoin network.

Part of that work has involved implementing hash-based signatures on Blockstream’s Bitcoin layer-2 Liquid Network, Back said at Paris Blockchain Week.

“Preparation is key. Making changes in a controlled way is far safer than reacting in a crisis.”

He added that the Taproot protocol could also support alternative signature schemes on the Bitcoin network without affecting current users.

Quantum computing threat may be closer than it appears

Last month, Google and California Institute of Technology researchers said functional quantum computers could come sooner than expected and that far less computing power is needed to break cryptography than previously thought.

Google went as far as to say that quantum computers could potentially break

Tensions are growing between Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun and Donald Trump’s altcoin! Sun makes new statements!

The conflict between Tron founder Justin Sun and Trump-backed World Liberty Financial, which has been marked by harsh exchanges in recent days, shows no signs of abating.

Lastly, US President Donald Trump and his family have submitted a new proposal regarding the unlocking and burning of their altcoin project, World Liberty Financial ($WLFI) tokens.

This proposal drew criticism from Justin Sun and other shareholders.

Tron founder Justin Sun harshly criticized the $WLFI’s new governance proposal, calling it a ridiculous scam and one of the “most absurd governance tricks” he had ever seen.

Bitcoin is testing a level that capped its rally in January, CryptoQuant says
Bitcoin’s rally toward $75,000 is running into a wall of supply just as institutional demand is holding steady.

The move higher has been driven largely by macro flows rather than a broad surge in speculative activity. U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETFs have continued to draw consistent inflows this month, including roughly $240 million in a single session following geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, according to market maker Enflux.

That bid helped lift $BTC from around $71,000 to the mid-$70,000s, even as traditional markets absorbed rising oil prices and shifting rate expectations. The pattern, Enflux noted, reflects allocation behavior rather than momentum chasing.

But as bitcoin pushes higher, the character of the market is starting to change.

On-chain data suggests supply is beginning to emerge more aggressively as prices approach a key cost-basis level for short-term holders. Around $76,800 sits the so-called realized price for recent buyers, effectively the average entry point for traders who accumulated during the last phase of the drawdown, according to CryptoQuant. In weaker market regimes, that level has often acted as resistance, as investors who were previously underwater use rallies to exit at breakeven.

It should be noted that the same band capped January's bounce almost to the dollar before prices reversed toward $60,000.

CryptoQuant said bitcoin exchange inflows spiked to roughly 11,000 $BTC per hour, the highest since late December, as prices tested the $75,000 to $76,000 range.

At the same time, the average deposit size rose to about 2.25 $BTC, the highest daily reading since mid-2024, suggesting that larger holders are driving the move. The share of large transfers jumped from below 10% to above 40% of total inflows within days, a shift the firm said has historically coincided with increased distribution pressure.

That sets up a two-sided m

This cycle feels different—and the data backs it up.
According to CryptoQuant, inflows from wallets holding less than 1 BTC have dropped to their lowest level in nine years. In simple terms: retail investors are largely absent from the market.
But while small players step back, big money is stepping in.
Major financial institutions are steadily expanding their crypto exposure:
Morgan Stanley has launched a Bitcoin ETF
Charles Schwab is preparing spot Bitcoin trading access
Franklin Templeton has built out a dedicated crypto division
Fannie Mae is exploring Bitcoin-backed mortgages
The contrast is striking:
👉 Wall Street is accumulating, while Main Street is sitting out
JP Richardson captured it bluntly:
“This might be the first cycle where institutions are in a bull market—and retail doesn’t even know it.”
So where did retail go?
The answer is less about crypto—and more about the real world.
Rising inflation and cost of living have squeezed disposable income, leaving many unable to participate in speculative markets. Michaël van de Poppe noted that for many, covering monthly expenses now takes priority over investing.
At the same time, some capital has rotated into traditional markets like equities and commodities, which have delivered strong returns recently.
In the short term, crypto remains heavily influenced by macro factors—oil prices, the U.S. dollar, and inflation expectations continue to shape sentiment.
But zoom out, and a bigger shift is unfolding:
This may not be a retail-driven cycle. It may be an institutional one.
That has real implications:
• Slower, more structured market moves
• Less hype-driven volatility
• More capital flowing through regulated channels
Bottom line:
This isn’t the absence of a bull market—
it’s a bull market that retail hasn’t fully shown up for… yet.

Tesla stock was upgraded by UBS and this stands as one of the more notable analyst calls of the year so far. The bank moved TSLA from Sell to Neutral and also kept the Tesla stock price target unchanged at $352 — right around where the stock sat at the time of writing. After a more than 21% drop year-to-date, the Tesla valuation outlook had shifted enough that a Sell rating no longer made sense, and UBS also updated the TSLA stock forecast to reflect the changed picture. TSLA climbed over 3% on the Tesla stock upgraded news, closing at $364.20.TSLA daily chart — $364.20, up 3.34% on April 14, 2026 Source: Google FinanceTesla Stock Upgraded Boosts TSLA Forecast and Price Target OutlookSource: U.S. News MoneyWhat UBS Actually SaidThe Tesla stock upgraded announcement came with a fair amount of caveats, though — which is also worth keeping in mind. UBS analyst Joseph Spak, who had been sitting on a Sell for a while, said current price levels “more evenly balance” Tesla’s near-term challenges against its longer-term physical AI opportunity. That’s measured language, and also not something you’d call a ringing endorsement.Joseph Spak stated:“However, we do expect eventual progress on robo-taxi and Optimus and continue to view TSLA as a leader in physical AI.”He also warned:“The stock may continue to exhibit high volatility.”TSLA, Spak added, moves more on sentiment and narrative than on actual fundamentals. On Optimus, the program “will take longer than Musk’s stated targets,” and Spak also flagged supply chain risk tied to the current reliance on Chinese-made parts. UBS models around 5,000 Optimus units in 2027, rising to 30,000 by 2030 — well short of what Musk has publicly discussed.FirmAnalystActionOld RatingNew RatingTargetUBSJoseph SpakUpgradeSellNeutral$352The Numbers Behind the Tesla Stock Price TargetAfter the Tesla stock upgraded move to Neutral, the nu

Viral Jack Neel and Jiang Xueqin Podcast Clip Revives Bitcoin Deep State Theory


A viral clip from the Jack Neel Podcast sent a Beijing-based commentator’s CIA-created- Bitcoin theory ricocheting across X, Tiktok, and crypto forums on Wednesday.

Key Takeaways:

A viral clip from Jack Neel Podcast Episode 86 shows Jiang Xueqin claiming the CIA created Bitcoin in 2026.

Jiang’s theory, built on game theory framing, has reached 2.3M YouTube subscribers with zero documentary evidence.

Crypto analysts and rebuttals on Youtube say Bitcoin’s open-source code directly contradicts Jiang’s surveillance thesis.

Predictive History’s Jiang Xueqin Says Bitcoin Is a Deep State Surveillance Tool

The clip, pulled from Episode 86, Part 2 of the Jack Neel Podcast and amplified by several crypto accounts, features Jiang Xueqin, a Chinese-Canadian high school history teacher who runs the Youtube channel Predictive History. The roughly four-minute excerpt centers on Jiang’s claim that Bitcoin was built by the American deep state as a surveillance and black-operations funding tool.

Jiang, who carries the informal online title “Professor” despite holding no university post, frames his case using what he calls game theory. Bitcoin.com News has featured Jiang on several occasions, as some of his predictions, like Trump winning the election and the U.S. going to war with Iran, have come true.

His Bitcoin argument, explained in an interview setting with Neel, follows three questions: who had the technical capacity to build Bitcoin, who benefits from its transparent ledger, and why would anyone build such a system and give it away for free. His answers point to DARPA, the NSA, and the CIA each time.

“When you do game theory analysis, you look at all possibilities, you end up with the deep state,” Jiang says in the clip. “You end up with the CIA.”
