Welcome to another edition of State of Crypto Weekly, where we track the forces moving the digital asset markets.
Ahead of our full report release, this week’s newsletter offers a sneak peek into the world of quantum risk – a challenge that’s rightfully the talk of our industry. Once you’ve brushed up on the quantum horizon, dive into our newest Off the Block episode to understand how AI agents could fundamentally reshape commerce as we know it.
IS CRYPTO QUANTUM READY?
Four questions every allocator should be asking right now
Ahead of our full report launch, co-author Karim AbdelMawla gets the ball rolling by answering four pressing introductory questions on how quantum computing could reshape – or rattle – the crypto industry. Take a sneak peek to consider:
• What actually secures our digital lives today?
• Why is quantum computing suddenly the ”elephant in the room”?
• Are Bitcoin and the blockchain ecosystem truly vulnerable right now?
• Where investors should focus their attention.
THE RISE OF AGENT ECONOMIES AND ONCHAIN COMMERCE
Episode 14 with Weekee from Virtuals Protocol
What happens when you put crypto rails under AI agents, give them wallets, let them transact, and then hand them a body? If you’ve been watching the AI x crypto space from a distance and wondering whether any of it is real, this one’s worth your time.
Darius Moukhtarzadeh, crypto research strategist, was quoted in Finews in a report about the shift to AI. He sees it as more of a cyclical diversification than a structural departure from bitcoin mining.

21Shares have published a new report examining what the quantum threat actually looks like for digital assets, including the timeline, the potential exposure, the prep required, and what this all might mean for asset allocators.
The exposure is larger than most appreciate. Between 4 million and 6.9 million bitcoin have permanently visible account numbers, aka public addresses and public keys, making them vulnerable to a quantum attack. Nearly every active Ethereum account and every Solana account face the same structural exposure.
The timeline shifted in March. On March 31, Google’s quantum team, alongside researchers from the Ethereum Foundation and Stanford, published findings showing the computing power needed to break this encryption is around 20x lower than the field previously believed.
You can’t prepare adequately for a quantum break if you determine that one is six months or a year ahead. You have to act before there’s a real perceived risk – but by definition that means sounding the alarm ’too early’.
The good news is that network preparation is further along than most investors realize. Bitcoin took its first step in Feb 2026 with the merger of BIP-360, a quantum-resistant address proposal. Ethereum has working code and ten independent teams building toward network migration. Solana has a path most observers have missed entirely.
