Bitcoin developer's quantum-theft deterrent “landmines” proposal: what do price and flows say?
CoinDesk reported on November 6, 2026, on a Bitcoin developer's proposal to make quantum-computer thieves lose the BTC they steal. Meanwhile, market data from the same period showed BTC down over 24 hours, with the short-term RSI in low territory, suggesting the news has yet to provide clear support.
What happened
CoinDesk published an article at 01:30 on 06/11/2026 (UTC) titled: a Bitcoin developer proposes 'landmines' to make quantum-using thieves lose their own BTC. This is a technical proposal described in the article; it does not imply that it has been accepted or implemented. The article only mentions Bitcoin and gives no specific timeline for adoption.
Price reaction and fund flows
At 05:40 on 06/11/2026, BTC was trading around 75682, down 6.0 over 24 hours, with 24-hour volume of approximately 21.28 billion USDT. The 1-hour RSI was 30 and the 4-hour RSI was 36—a low range reflecting weak momentum. BTC funding was recorded at 0.0052. These figures show that fund flows have yet to confirm a positive response to the technical news; the broader picture still leans toward a correction.
Contrary scenario: If the price reverses after the news has already been priced in, the initial impact scenario no longer applies.
