US Bitcoin Landscape Challenged by Quantum Threats and Corporate Liquidity Moves

Crypto analyst Nic Carter warned that the United States could exploit quantum computing to undermine Bitcoin’s security, potentially seizing private keys or disabling the network if the cryptocurrency expands enough to threaten the global financial system. He urged rapid adoption of post‑quantum cryptography to protect the blockchain.

Separately, Galaxy Research detailed MicroStrategy’s new Digital Credit Capital Framework, which authorises the sale of up to $1.25 billion of Bitcoin to shore up the company’s balance sheet after a $14 billion unrealised loss on its holdings. The firm’s first sale of 32 BTC raised about $2.5 million, and the announcement helped lift MSTR shares above $100. Analysts debate whether the framework resolves the company’s capital‑structure issues or merely postpones them.
