Capriole founder: If Bitcoin does not possess quantum resistance by 2028, its price may plummet.

PANews reported on December 17th, citing Cointelegraph, that Charles Edwards, founder of the quantitative Bitcoin and digital asset fund Capriole, warned that if Bitcoin does not achieve quantum resistance by 2028, its price could plummet below $50,000. The potential threat posed by quantum computing to the crypto industry has long been controversial and is seen as a key turning point. Theoretically, more advanced computers capable of breaking encryption could reveal user keys, exposing sensitive data and user funds to malicious actors. While it's generally believed that this threat is still years away, Edwards predicts it could arrive as early as 2028, and if the industry doesn't act quickly enough, Bitcoin's price could crash. Critics argue that the threat posed by quantum computers is exaggerated, as the technology is decades away from being viable, and banking giants and other traditional targets will be compromised before Bitcoin even reaches them.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
