Quantum Computers Just Cracked Bitcoin's Crypto And It Only Cost 1 BTC to Prove It
Project Eleven paid out 1 $BTC to researcher Giancarlo Lelli for the largest quantum attack on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) to date, A 512x jump from September 2025.
Why it matters:
🔹 ECC secures Bitcoin, Ethereum & $2.5T+ in digital assets
🔹 Done on public cloud quantum hardware, not a secret lab
🔹 Google: full 256-bit attack now needs <500K qubits (was millions)
🔹 Caltech: as low as 10K qubits on neutral-atom chips
🔹 Google targeting quantum-secure by 2029
The Exposed Risk:
⚠️ ~6.9M BTC sit in wallet

BREAKING: DOJ officially DROPS criminal probe into Fed Chair Powell
US Attorney Jeanine Pirro officially closed the investigation into Jerome Powell over the $2.5B Fed headquarters renovation.
Key Points:
▪️ Matter referred to Fed's Inspector General
▪️ Judge Boasberg had already quashed DOJ subpoenas in March
▪️ Prosecutors admitted no evidence of crimes
▪️ Clears path for Kevin Warsh confirmation as next Fed Chair
▪️ Powell stays until Warsh is confirmed
Why This Matters for Crypto:
Warsh is viewed as more aligned with Trump's rate-cut agenda. A dovish Fed pivot = weaker DXY = more liquidity
