이더리움 Foundation researcher Justin Drake warns of a risk that the ECDSA signature algorithm could be effectively cracked within months due to OpenAI's mathematical breakthrough.
In response, 이더리움 creator Vitalik Buterin recommendsthat major holders use addresses with no outgoing transactions to conceal their public keys on-chain and gradually transition to 해시-based cryptography.
Amid these discussions, a Satoshi Nakamoto-era address that had been dormant for more than 16 years became active: an ancient 채굴자 transferred 100 BTC (~$8. 33million) mined back in July 2010.

The daily capital outflow from ETFs, totaling $689million, looks painful, but technical and intermarket analysis shows that the long-term uptrend remains intact. 비트코인's local drop to $82, 165 is a textbook technical retest of the broken descending trendline of the annual channel from above, helping to relieve overbought conditions.
Dynamic support is located at $77, 086 (50 MA), while the foundation of the global trend is the 200 MA at around $66, 509.

Meanwhile, 이더리움 at $2, 527. 57 remains squeezed between resistance at the 200-week MA ($2, 536. 40) and support at the 50 MA ($2, 123. 05), indicating a phase of 유동성 accumulation.
For XRP/USD, the current correction to $1. 3942 represents a healthy retest of the upper boundary of the broken multi-month descending wedge and the long-term moving-average cluster in the $1. 26–$1. 27 range.
The global reversal is also confirmed by the altcoin 시가총액 index excluding the top 10 assets (OTHERS), which has turned the former heavy resistance around $206billion into solid support, opening the way for a medium-term rally.
