Google's Willow quantum computer processor was able to map out the features of a molecule 13,000 times faster than a modern supercomputer. Researchers at tech giant Google said they mapped out the structure of a molecule 13,000 times faster than the most powerful “supercomputers” available today, achieving the first verifiable quantum advantage. The experiment used Google’s Willow Quantum processor and “quantum echoes,” a technique that uses targeted waves to image an object in detail, according to Google. The technique targets a single qubit, the basic unit of information storage in quantum computing, with a precise signal, causing it to react. The process is then reversed, allowing the researchers to measure the “echo” or signal that bounces back, Google said. Read more -

Bitcoin’s design, governance and regulation set it apart from crypto. From supply rules to ETFs, it now sits in a category of its own.

It reflected a view he has long maintained, that Bitcoin should be regarded as money with its own rules and history, not included in the broader token market. Read more -

Gold suffered a massive $2.5 trillion market cap dip comparable to the entire Bitcoin market, showing that “safe-haven” assets are not immune to volatility.

The proposal would make Aave’s $50 million annual buyback a permanent feature, expanding on the success of previous buyback initiatives. Aave’s decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) introduced a proposal to create a long-term, protocol-funded buyback program that would use up to $50 million in annual revenue to repurchase Aave tokens. The proposal, submitted on Wednesday by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI), seeks to make buybacks a permanent component of Aave’s tokenomics. Under the plan, the Aave Finance Committee (AFC) and TokenLogic would lead the execution, repurchasing $250,000 to $1.75 million in Aave (AAVE) tokens weekly, depending on market conditions, liquidity and volatility. If approved, the proposal will proceed through the Aave Request for Comment (ARFC) stage for community feedback, followed by a Snapshot vote and final onchain governance confirmation. Unlike short-term market interventions, the proposal aims to institutionalize buybacks as a recurring mechanism, essentially making the DAO ... -

Should you buy a house with a Bitcoin-backed mortgage? The dream is you pay off the house as Bitcoin goes up, the risk is you lose it all. If youre one of the lucky people who own four to six Bitcoin or 111 to 166 ETH that’s enough to buy an average-priced house in the US or Australia. But who wants to cash out their Bitcoin today when pundits like Samson Mow and Plan B are tipping it will be worth 10 times more in the future? The dream of a Bitcoin-backed mortgage is that you get a house today and still get to benefit from Bitcoins appreciation tomorrow. If everything goes to plan, you just pay the interest each year, and in a few years’ time, hopefully pay off the mortgage with a smaller fraction of your Bitcoin holdings. The loans are quicker and easier to get than a standard mortgage too. All you need is Bitcoin worth approximately 50% more than the loan amount and youre good to go. There are some big drawbacks however, with interest rates sometimes twice as high as ordinary mortgages. Holders face margin... -
