Bitcoin shifts toward post-quantum security as Solana cancels 18.9M SOL

Cointelegraph also says Solana validators agreed to curb inflation, and it highlights a Bernstein bull-case view for Bitcoin’s potential peak this cycle.

Cointelegraph reports that Bitcoin is moving toward a post-quantum future, framing the shift as new “quantum defenses” aimed at futureproofing security.

The outlet also points to a Solana-related development, saying 18.9 million SOL has been cancelled, alongside an agreement by Solana validators to curb what it describes as rampant inflation.

In a market context, Cointelegraph adds that Bernstein’s bull case for Bitcoin suggests the asset could peak at $500,000 this cycle.
