She continues, "This dynamic always creates winners and losers. The growing imbalance has fueled populist pushback, driven unexpected shifts in global politics, and is now steering the world toward a more multipolar order."

JORDI VISSER: 🟠 “I’m completely over the whole ‘quantum will break Bitcoin’ narrative — and this year, that myth finally dies. Why? Because AI-powered agent swarms are going to expose how shockingly weak bank security really is.”

“Once that happens, banks will have no choice but to adopt real cryptography and strengthen their systems. They’ll be forced to step up their security game — and Bitcoin already provides that foundation.”

“Owning actual Bitcoin — not just ETF exposure — will become crucial. With quantum threats in play, holding your own Bitcoin puts you in a far stronger security position.”

It’s not just wrong — it’s outright disrespectful — to claim that Bitcoin protocol researchers aren't taking action.”
