ChainCatcher News: StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson has spoken on X about the potential impact of quantum computing on the encryption industry, calling for multi-chain ecosystems, including Bitcoin, to proactively deploy post-quantum security upgrades, and has proposed a five-step action plan:
-
Recognize the threat, clearly acknowledge that once quantum computers mature, they will pose a serious challenge to existing public key cryptography systems, and take decisive actions to implement countermeasures.
-
Strengthen education and information dissemination by systematically studying the current development of quantum computing and feasible post-quantum cryptography (PQC) solutions, and promote related knowledge within the community to enhance overall awareness.
-
Organize resources and support collaboration with post-quantum cryptography experts, promote multiple research and engineering practices, and provide funding and community initiative support for relevant projects.
-
Consult expert advice and establish standards, with experts proposing specific technical routes, including the selection of new signature algorithm standards and the appropriate post-quantum security levels required for hash functions.
-
Drive protocol and infrastructure upgrades by introducing new quantum-resistant signature mechanisms at the core protocol layer, and ensure compatibility and integration with key infrastructure such as wallets to facilitate a smooth transition.

Bitcoin is increasingly linked to the macroeconomic cycle after adjusting for US employment data.
Recent adjustments to U.S. labor market data have significantly altered economic outlooks, reducing job numbers by 862,000. This unexpected change weakened short-term growth expectations and prompted investors to reassess future policy directions. Declining inflation pressures have led to lower bond yields and favorable global financial conditions, causing Bitcoin to rise alongside traditional assets. This indicates a structural shift in Bitcoin's market behavior, as it increasingly responds to macroeconomic factors rather than solely crypto-specific news.

When the "Old Map" No Longer Applies: A Review of 8 "Failing Classic Cryptocurrency Indicators"
Author: Frank, PANews
In early 2026, the cryptocurrency market is filled with a sense of frustration and confusion. Bitcoin has retraced approximately 36% from its all-time high set in October 2025, and the market is swinging back and forth between bulls and bears. But what’s causing more unease among crypto investors isn’t just the price itself, but the fact that their traditional indicator systems used to gauge market positions have almost all failed.
The S2F model’s $500,000 prediction has deviated by more than three times from reality. The four-year cycle has been delayed after the halving, with no explosive rally in sight. The Pi Cycle Top indicator has remained silent throughout the entire cycle. The fixed threshold of the MVRV Z-Score no longer triggers signals, and the top zone of the rainbow chart has become unreachable. Meanwhile, the contrarian signals of the Fear and Greed Index repeatedly prove unreliable, and the highly anticipated “altcoin season” has yet to arrive.
Why have these indicators collectively failed? The answer
