₿ Bitcoin Developers Unveil Quantum-Resistant Roadmap for 2029 Quantum computing is no longer just a theoretical threat to Bitcoin — developers are now treating it as an active engineering priority. According to data shared by prominent Bitcoin developer Christine Kim, quantum computers are advancing fast enough to potentially break asymmetric cryptography after 2030. In response, developers have published a concrete roadmap targeting 2029 as the deadline to make Bitcoin quantum-resistant — ahead of when a real attack becomes feasible. The plan focuses on upgrading Bitcoin's cryptographic foundations to algorithms that quantum machines cannot break. The move marks a shift from open debate to structured action across the developer community. No specific implementation details or consensus mechanism changes have been confirmed yet, but the roadmap signals that quantum resilience is now a near-term priority, not a distant concern.

₿ Bitcoin Breaks $87K, Eyes $90,000 After Key Weekly Close Bitcoin surged past $87,000 intraday after closing the week of Sept. 20 at $81,178 — its first weekly settlement above the 50-week moving average since November 2025. That moving average is one of the most closely watched technical levels in crypto markets. A confirmed close above it has historically signaled sustained bullish momentum, putting $90,000 as the next logical target in focus. The catch: the breakout raises the question of whether there's enough buying pressure underneath to hold the level. A reclaim without strong follow-through has, in past cycles, led to fakeouts before the next leg higher. Trade on Binance

₿ Bitcoin Breaks $85K as $648M in Shorts Liquidated Bitcoin surged past $85,000 as a wave of short liquidations swept the crypto market, wiping out $648 million in short positions and triggering a sharp short squeeze. The initial move was fueled by forced liquidations, but spot buyers have since stepped in to sustain the rally. One measure of selling pressure is now near a record low, suggesting the move has real demand behind it — not just leverage unwinding. Trade on Binance
