on-chain data analytics firm Glassnode has released its latest weekly market summary, noting that Bitcoin has briefly stabilized around the $60,000 level. However, the market is characterized by strong defensive traits and a lack of bullish confidence.The spot market is range-bound, with trading activity slightly increasing. Yet, capital continues to flow out on a net basis, and market liquidity is primarily driven by distribution, with no large-scale accumulation observed. The derivatives market is persistently deleveraging, with traders prioritizing downside hedging protection and showing low willingness for directional long positions. Funding rates remain low, indicating a generally weak risk appetite. Institutional pressure is significant, as US spot Bitcoin ETFs are collectively in a state of unrealized losses, with continued net capital outflows and low willingness among institutions to increase positions.Glassnode states that the current market is undergoing a period of structural adjustment and capital contraction. The $60,000 level provides only temporary support, and there are no signs of recovery in spot orders, derivatives positions, or institutional capital. For a sustained upward trend to emerge, a significant restoration of confidence among buyers is required.

: Bitcoin infrastructure company Breez has added a new feature to its developer toolkit, allowing users to send USDC and USDT directly from their Bitcoin balance to over 30 blockchain networks, without the need to convert in advance or hold stablecoins. This feature combines the Lightning Network with an automatic conversion mechanism. After the user enters the recipient's wallet address, the Breez SDK identifies the target blockchain, calculates the conversion route, and displays the amount, network, and fees before the payment is confirmed. The transaction is then routed through liquidity providers such as Flashnet and Boltz, converting the sender's Bitcoin into stablecoins and delivering them to the blockchain chosen by the recipient. Breez states that users still hold Bitcoin while initiating the payment, while the recipient receives stablecoins on their preferred blockchain. The feature operates in a non-custodial mode and initially only supports sending stablecoins outward. Future versions are planned to support receiving stablecoins from external blockchain networks.

CZ previously mentioned in an interview that “if Satoshi’s address remains inactive for a long time after Bitcoin’s quantum-resistant upgrade, the relevant Bitcoin should be frozen,” sparking widespread discussion within the community.He Yi stated that the potential impact of quantum computing on the existing Bitcoin encryption system has long been a core topic of debate in the industry. CZ’s suggestion is not his personal original idea but rather a response proposal that has long existed within the Bitcoin community. By raising it in a public interview, his intention was merely to bring the technical security issue into the mainstream and broaden the scope of discussion.She noted that Bitcoin has undergone multiple forks while maintaining network stability, and there is no need for pessimism when facing quantum risks. Security challenges can be addressed through community collaboration to find solutions. The value of entrepreneurs lies in exploring feasible paths amid industry challenges, and any final disposal plans will ultimately be determined through the consensus mechanism of the Bitcoin community.

Framework Ventures co-founder Michael Anderson pointed out in his analysis that the core opportunity in the next stage of the crypto industry may no longer be limited to crypto assets themselves, but rather evolve into a financing infrastructure for capital-intensive industries such as artificial intelligence, robotics, and energy, with blockchain becoming the capital layer.Compared to the 2020–2021 cycle, which was centered on DeFi and crypto speculation, tokenization and stablecoins are evolving from crypto-native applications into financial infrastructure serving the real economy. They can be used to provide more efficient financing channels for assets such as GPU computing power and energy projects. Currently, over $300 billion in stablecoin liquidity on-chain offers new funding sources for asset-backed lending, potentially allowing assets that were traditionally difficult to securitize—such as servers and computing hardware—to be packaged as financeable assets.

Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, told lawmakers during a U.S. congressional hearing that the development of open-source artificial intelligence is entering a "very dangerous path." Once AI models with strong capabilities are released as open source, developers will lose effective oversight over how the models are used, including the ability to monitor misuse, revoke access permissions, or dynamically update security safeguards, thereby significantly increasing potential risks. Dario Amodei emphasized that, compared to closed-model systems, fully open models are more difficult to implement ongoing security governance controls, which could lead to irreversible risks of abuse.

Taiko, an Ethereum Layer 2 project, announced that its fix has been reviewed by independent security experts. The mainnet will resume operations in four steps, including: deploying the fix and confirming the chain's final state is correct, ensuring there are no invalid checkpoints or attacker-submitted records that could be accepted; replenishing cross-chain bridge liquidity to ensure all L2 assets maintain a 1:1 reserve; restoring network operations and reopening L2 transfers, swaps, and trading functions; and having the security committee propose lifting the bridge suspension to fully restore asset deposit and withdrawal functionality.Taiko stated that during the initial reopening period, relatively conservative withdrawal limits will be set as an additional security measure, but this is not expected to affect users' normal asset operations.
