When Quantums Attack! | Bitcoin News

from Bitcoin And | Bitcoin & Economic News Hosted by David Bennett | Bitcoin & Economic News

Bitcoin news and economic news update. Today I cover AI-assisted research that cut a key quantum attack benchmark against Bitcoin’s cryptography by 86%, Metaplanet’s 41% reduction in its executive reward pool, India’s corporate bond tokenization pilot using the digital rupee, and Bitcoin’s reaction to hot PPI, rising oil prices, and long-term Treasury yields. I also get into Blockstream’s refusal to pay the Liquid hackers’ ransom, the latest CLARITY Act draft, and an AI experiment involving chatbot versions of Sam Altman, Elon Musk, Dario Amodei, and Mark Zuckerberg. The mix today leans into bitcoin technology, bitcoin regulation, and macro news without losing sight of the market. Topics for today: AI agents cut Bitcoin quantum attack benchmark 86% Metaplanet cuts executive reward pool 41% India tokenizes bonds with digital rupee settlement Bitcoin slips as PPI and bond yields rise Blockstream rejects Liquid hackers’ ransom demand CLARITY Act updates DeFi and credit union rules AI CEO bots battle over the AI race Circle P: SoapMiner Tallow Soap https://soapminer.com/ Today’s Articles covering bitcoin news, economic news, technology, and regulation: https://decrypt.co/377948/morning-minute-ai-agents-cut-btc-quantum-attack-benchmark-by-86 https://www.coindesk.com/business/2026/09/11/metaplanet-cuts-executive-reward-pool-by-41-extinguishes-usd220-million-in-value https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2026/09/11/india-starts-tokenizing-usd620-billion-corporate-bond-market-with-digital-rupee-settlement https://cointelegraph.com/markets/bitcoin-falls-on-us-ppi-overshoot-as-30-year-bond-yield-hits-new-19-year-high https://cointelegraph.com/news/blockstream-rejects-ransom-liquid-hackers-return-bitcoin https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2026/09/10/new-clarity-act-text-tweaks-defi-credit-union-provisions-but-road-ahead-for-bill-remains-murky https://decrypt.co/377898/sam-altman-elon-musk-zuckerberg-ai-bots Get Your Free Comfrey Owner's Manual Here: https://www.bitcoinandshow.com/the-comfrey-owners-manual-is-here/ Help a Brother Out With 5 Star Reviews: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bitcoin-and-bitcoin-economic-news/id1438789088 Spotify Podcasts: https://open.spotify.com/show/1dsTluNHIPNsXVRghpqxhY Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9ef7d5b6-9137-439d-94eb-8071ec6bf890/bitcoin-and-bitcoin-economic-news YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWaKxaQF5Q5WiTq80SBYs_7iLDtleV0rZ Find the Bitcoin And Podcast on every podcast app here: https://episodes.fm/1438789088 Find me on nostr npub1vwymuey3u7mf860ndrkw3r7dz30s0srg6tqmhtjzg7umtm6rn5eq2qzugd (npub) 6389be6491e7b693e9f368ece88fcd145f07c068d2c1bbae4247b9b5ef439d32 (Hex) Twitter: https://twitter.com/DavidB84567 StackerNews: stacker.news/NunyaBidness Podcasting 2.0: fountain.fm/show/eK5XaSb3UaLRavU3lYrI Apple Podcasts: tinyurl.com/unm35bjh Mastodon: https://noauthority.social/@NunyaBidness Support Bitcoin And . . . on Patreon: patreon.com/BitcoinAndPodcast Find Lightning Network Channel partners here: https://t.me/+bj-7w_ePsANlOGEx (Nodestrich) https://t.me/plebnet (Plebnet) Music by: Flutey Funk Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
