Bitcoin is trading near $102,800, down slightly on the day but holding firm above key technical levels. The stability comes despite a fresh warning from BlackRock, which flagged quantum computing as a long-term risk to Bitcoin’s cryptographic security in its latest iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) filing.
The firm notes that future advancements in quantum technology could theoretically compromise digital asset security, though the risk remains distant.
“While rare today, these disclosures are a prudent part of ETF documentation,” said analysts, adding they’re meant to prepare investors for evolving threats. This is the first time BlackRock has included quantum computing risks in its ETF literature, a move that reinforces the firm’s transparency.
Despite the cautionary tone, markets responded with calm, viewing the disclosure as evidence that institutions are preparing for Bitcoin’s long-term future.
IBIT currently holds $64 billion in assets, making it the largest spot BTC ETF on the market.
Metaplanet Outpaces El Salvador in Bitcoin Holdings
Japan’s Metaplanet made headlines with a $126 million Bitcoin purchase, adding 1,241 BTC to its treasury. The firm now owns 6,796 BTC, overtaking El Salvador’s national reserve of 6,174 BTC. The average purchase price was $102,119 per coin.
Metaplanet aims to reach 10,000 BTC by the end of 2025, using a strategy similar to MicroStrategy’s high-conviction, long-term approach. With this move, Metaplanet becomes the largest public Bitcoin holder in Asia and the 11th-largest globally.
Large-scale acquisitions like this tend to reinforce market confidence, offering price support and signaling growing institutional conviction in Bitcoin’s long-term value proposition.

Bitcoin price prediction stays bullish as BTC’s action is showing technical resilience. The $100,772 level marks the 50% Fibonacci retracement from the recent $95,828–$105,716 rally.
Combined with the upward trendline and 50-period EMA at $102,640, this area forms a strong base of support.
