Crypto may need a major overhaul sooner than most people think. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson pointed to a specific proposal — Bitcoin Improvement Proposal BIP-361 — as a potential path forward for gradually moving Bitcoin users away from older wallet addresses toward ones built to resist quantum attacks.

Speaking at Consensus Miami, Hoskinson said the window to prepare may be closing faster than the industry has assumed.

A Deadline The Industry Cannot Ignore

Hoskinson put the odds of a capable quantum computer arriving before 2033 at above 50%. That kind of machine, he said, would be powerful enough to crack the cryptographic systems that currently protect digital wallets, private keys, and transaction signatures across most major blockchain networks.

If that happens, bad actors could potentially access wallets without authorization, forge transaction signatures, or disrupt how blockchains reach agreement. He was direct: this is no longer a problem for the next generation to solve.

Most blockchains today — Bitcoin included — rely on traditional encryption methods that were never designed with quantum computing in mind.

Those systems work by making certain math problems extremely difficult for classical computers to solve. A sufficiently advanced quantum machine could blow through those same problems in a fraction of the time.

BREAKING: Donald Trump Announces That the Planned New Attack on Iran Has Been Postponed

US President Donald Trump announced that the military attack planned for tomorrow against Iran has been temporarily halted. Trump stated that the attack was postponed at the request of the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman, and the President of the UAE, Mohammed bin Zayed.

Trump stated that negotiations with Iran were ongoing and that Gulf countries believed a diplomatic agreement was possible. The US President added that the agreement should include guarantees to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

Confirming that the attack planned for tomorrow has been canceled, Trump said, “We will not be carrying out the planned attack on Iran tomorrow.” However, Trump added that the US military is prepared to conduct a large-scale operation if negotiations fail.

Meanwhile, according to reports in the Iranian press, air defense systems have been activated on Qeshm Island near the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s Mehr News Agency reported that the reason for the activation of the air defenses is not yet known.

Hyperliquid’s USDC Deal Could Supercharge HYPE While Pressuring Circle and Coinbase Margins, Analysts Say

Hyperliquid is drawing strong market attention after reports that its USDC-related deal could significantly boost ecosystem activity and liquidity, potentially strengthening demand for its native token HYPE.

According to analysts, tighter integration with USD Coin could enhance capital efficiency across the Hyperliquid ecosystem, attracting more traders, higher volume, and deeper on-chain liquidity.

However, the development may also introduce competitive pressure for major stablecoin and exchange players, including Circle and Coinbase, as shifting liquidity flows could impact fee structures and trading margins.

Market observers note that if Hyperliquid captures more perpetual trading activity through improved USDC utility, it could strengthen its position in the derivatives market while reshaping competitive dynamics in centralized and decentralized exchanges.

Still, analysts caution that execution, liquidity depth, and user adoption will determine whether this potential upside fully materializes.

Bitcoin faces outsized quantum threat as computing breakthroughs accelerate, Citi says

Quantum computing is emerging as a growing risk for digital assets, with Wall Street bank Citi (C) warning that recent breakthroughs are accelerating the timeline for potential threats to crypto security and internet infrastructure.

In a Friday report, the bank said advances in quantum computing are challenging the cryptographic systems underpinning cryptocurrencies, financial networks and online communications.

"While large-scale quantum attacks remain a medium-term concern, the pace of progress has shortened the horizon and warrants closer attention from investors," wrote analyst Alex Saunders.

Quantum computing is a long-term threat to crypto because a sufficiently powerful quantum computer could break the cryptographic systems that protect wallets, exchanges, and blockchains, especially public-key cryptography like ECDSA used by Bitcoin and Ethereum.

In theory, a quantum attacker could derive private keys from exposed public keys, forge transactions, and steal funds. Still, the risk is not immediate. Experts believe the hardware needed to do this at scale is still years away, and blockchains can likely migrate to post-quantum cryptography before then.

The analyst highlighted Bitcoin as particularly exposed because of its conservative governance model and slower ability to implement protocol upgrades.

Saunders pointed to vulnerabilities tied to public keys exposed on-chain, dormant wallets and early pay-to-public-key (P2PK) addresses, including wallets believed to belong to Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto.

Latest estimates put around 6.5–6.9 million bitcoin at quantum risk due to already-exposed public keys. This is about one-third of circulating supply, or roughly $450 billion worth depending on the BTC price.
