AI Agents Yield Farming Alert: Mike Silagadze Flags Points Ponzi Risk in New DeFi dapp
According to @MikeSilagadze, a newly referenced dapp claims to enable yield farming with AI agents but appears to rely on a points-based rewards scheme he characterizes as another points ponzi, signaling elevated risk for participants and unsustainable incentives (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Aug 15, 2025). The post links to the dapp and includes an image, highlighting the ongoing points farming meta in DeFi and suggesting traders be cautious when incentives are points only without clear cash flow or audited yield support (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Aug 15, 2025). Given this warning, market participants tracking AI agent driven DeFi tools may prioritize on-chain revenue evidence, realized APY, and clear token or rewards mechanics before allocating capital to avoid short term farm and dump exposure (source: @MikeSilagadze on X, Aug 15, 2025). |

Quantum Computing's 'Q-Day' Threat: Is Your Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) Portfolio Facing Annihilation?
According to Eric Balchunas, the advent of quantum computing, or 'Q-Day,' presents a catastrophic and immediate threat to the entire cryptocurrency market, including Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). The core risk stems from 'Harvest Now, Decrypt Later' attacks, where, as IBM Quantum's Vice President Jay Gambetta warns, nation-states are already collecting encrypted data to be broken by future quantum computers. This risk is so significant that BlackRock, in its Bitcoin ETF filing, cited quantum advances as a critical threat that could 'undermine the viability' of current cryptographic standards. Researchers estimate that 4 million Bitcoin, or 25% of the usable supply, are vulnerable. For Ethereum, co-founder Vitalik Buterin has already proposed emergency hard-forks, which could lead to prolonged network downtime. While some predict Q-Day is 5-7 years away, a Reuters report cites Tilo Kunz of Quantum Defen5e suggesting it could be as early as 2025. The article concludes that for traders and investors, the only path forward is an urgent migration to post-quantum cryptography, as existing digital assets without such security could become worthless. |

Crypto Alert: Quantum Computing Threat to BTC & ETH and Ponzi VC Risks Signal Market Dangers
According to @BillGates, the cryptocurrency market faces two significant existential threats that traders must monitor. The first is the imminent danger of quantum computing, or "Q-Day," which could break the encryption securing crypto wallets. Jay Gambetta of IBM Quantum warns that nation-states are already engaging in "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" attacks, collecting encrypted data to be broken by future quantum computers. This risk is so significant that BlackRock cited quantum advances as a critical risk in its Bitcoin ETF filing, stating it could "undermine the viability" of cryptographic algorithms. Researchers warn that this could put 4 million Bitcoin (BTC) at risk of theft, and Ethereum (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin has already proposed emergency hard-fork solutions. The second major threat stems from the Web3 venture capital model, which is criticized for resembling Ponzi schemes that prioritize rapid token exits for insiders over sustainable product development. This practice is drawing increased regulatory action, highlighted by a $198 million SEC fraud case and a multi-year prison sentence handed down by a New York judge for a similar scheme. These combined technological and structural risks create a volatile environment, suggesting that the future value of digital assets like BTC and ETH depends on overcoming both the quantum threat and unsustainable funding practices. |

Bitcoin Hits $106K Boosted by Trump Comments, Analysts Flag $92K Downside Risk
According to Crypto Daybook Americas, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $106,015, up 1.63% from Thursday, buoyed by reduced geopolitical risks after President Trump delayed potential U.S. military action in the Israel-Iran conflict, lowering odds on Polymarket from 70% to 40% for immediate intervention. However, CryptoQuant analysts warn BTC could drop to $92,000 if demand fails to rebound, citing a 60% decline in ETF flows since April and slowing whale activity. Traders should watch technical resistance at the 20-day EMA and key events like Optimism (OP) and Sui (SUI) token unlocks for market direction. |
