‍Quantum Threat to Bitcoin: Human Panic the Real Danger? Experts warn that the immediate threat to Bitcoin's cryptography from quantum computers is less about theoretical "Q-Day" and more about human panic and slow preparation. Even minor news could trigger market instability. While quantum computers capable of breaking Bitcoin's encryption are likely a decade or more away, proactive adoption of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is crucial. Some blockchains are already quantum-resistant. Major chains like Bitcoin and Ethereum are exploring PQC integration, but network-wide consensus poses a challenge. Proactive development and informed communication are key.

‍FTX Creditors May Recover Only 9% in Real Crypto Terms FTX creditors face a potential recovery rate as low as 9% in actual cryptocurrency value, despite a planned 143% fiat repayment. This discrepancy stems from using initial petition prices for crypto valuations versus current market values. For instance, the fiat payout for Bitcoin equates to only 22% of its real BTC value. Airdrops from external projects may offer additional recovery. Payouts have begun, with $1.2 billion distributed in February and a $5 billion distribution in May. Meanwhile, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried's appeal hearing is set for November 4.

‍Romania Blacklists Polymarket for Unlicensed Crypto Betting Romania's National Office for Gambling (ONJN) has blacklisted Polymarket, citing unlicensed crypto betting operations. This action follows a surge in wagers exceeding $600 million on recent elections via the platform. The ONJN stated Polymarket’s model constitutes "counterpart betting" and falls under gambling laws, irrespective of its blockchain format. Violations include a lack of fiscal reporting, player protection, and AML oversight. Access to Polymarket is now blocked in Romania. This mirrors global regulatory actions; Polymarket was previously fined by the US CFTC, leading to a block on American users, and faces restrictions in several other countries. Despite these challenges, Polymarket secured $2 billion in investment from Intercontinental Exchange. The platform is reportedly preparing a re-entry into the US market.
