According to ChainCatcher news, crypto analyst Murphy posted that BTC is making up for the gap left in the chip structure since 2024, with the nearest chip-intensive area around $78,000, where about 423,000 BTC have changed hands, indicating that there is a large amount of money entering the market to form support. It pointed out that the turnover in the $79,000 to $80,000 range has decreased significantly, or some funds have chosen to wait and see because they are close to the integer mark and pressure level. There is still an unfilled chip gap above $81,000 to $82,000, and the price is expected to fluctuate in this range and challenge the higher area after the chips have fully changed hands. Murphy emphasized that the concentration of chips in the $83,000 to $84,000 range was primarily due to Coinbase's consolidation of wallets and did not pose real resistance. If BTC holds at $82,000, the real pressure above will come from the chip-intensive zone above $87,000.

ChainCatcher news, Grayscale issued a document stating that although advanced quantum computers pose a long-term potential threat to traditional cryptography and support all mainstream blockchains to accelerate quantum-resistant upgrades, this is not the main driver of the recent decline in Bitcoin prices. Grayscale observed that over the past few months, Bitcoin has shown a synchronized trend with the stock prices of publicly traded companies focused on quantum computing. If the quantum computing breakout puts substantial pressure on Bitcoin, the stock price of the quantum computing company should rise, but the reality is the opposite. In addition, the decline in Bitcoin and quantum computing stocks since October last year mainly reflects the overall de-risking of growth assets caused by market concerns about AI shocks. While Bitcoin has recently increased its correlation with investor sentiment in cutting-edge tech assets like quantum computing, this has not changed its store of value function in diversified portfolios. Investors do not have to wait for the blockchain to fully complete the quantum-resistant upgrade to gain exposure.

According to ChainCatcher news, Zondacrypto, Poland's major crypto trading platform, is facing a serious fraud investigation. Its former CEO disappeared in 2022 while taking away the private keys of a cold wallet containing 4,500 Bitcoins (currently worth more than $340 million). The current CEO has admitted that he cannot use the wallet and has recently been exposed to fleeing to Israel. Prosecutors estimated potential losses for customers at about $97 million. On-chain data shows that Bitcoin balances in the platform's hot wallets have plummeted by 99.7% since mid-2024, with users generally reporting difficulties in withdrawals. Polish Prime Minister Tusk estimates that up to 30,000 users may be affected. Tusk publicly accused the platform of being funded by Russian-linked funds and used to fund opposition lawmakers to block Poland's crypto regulatory legislation. He bluntly said that this was the "Polish version of the Ponzi scheme" and criticized the president for twice vetoing the EU's localization bill for the MiCA framework, making Poland a "paradise for fraudsters." The platform's board of directors said it had failed to obtain "verifiable information" from the missing CEO and has resigned en masse. The founder has been missing since 2022, and the previously mentioned "suspect kidnapping allegations" case is still under investigation. This incident is expected to prompt Poland and the European Union to strengthen regulatory scrutiny of cryptocurrency trading platforms.
