Stellar (XLM) is experiencing a surge in trading activity in the last 24 hours, with volume up by more than 303%.

The post The altcoin depression: Ex-BTC/ETH market down 23% appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Strip Bitcoin and Ethereum out of the crypto market and what remains has shed almost a quarter of its value in the first half of 2026, falling to $666 billion while liquidity retreats into a handful of survivors. This is not a crash; crashes end. It is something slower and stranger: a depression in the long tail of crypto, with its own causes, its own refugees, and its own short list of assets that refuse to participate. Summary The ex-Bitcoin and ex-Ethereum crypto market lost nearly 23% in the first half of 2026. Liquidity is retreating from the long tail into Bitcoin, stablecoins, and a few assets with stronger revenue mechanisms. The current altcoin downturn looks more like a slow structural depression than a fast liquidation crash. Token supply glut, ETF-driven institutional access, and the rise of perpetual trading have weakened broad altcoin demand. The main survivors are tokens with

The post Bigger Blocks or STARK Proofs? Bitcoin’s Quantum Dilemma appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
ZK STARKs are the best way to deal with the issues created with making Bitcoin quantum-safe — and to reach mass adoption at the same time — says StarkWare co-founder Eli Ben-Sasson. What’s more, he claims Blockstream founder Adam Back agrees. Ben-Sasson has been in the news this week for his controversial suggestion on X to increase Bitcoin inflation to 4% annually. Grok’s analysis of the replies found “zero clear support for the proposal.” But as the co-inventor of STARKs — quantum-secure, hash-based zero-knowledge proofs — he’s on much firmer ground, with some leading Bitcoin researchers supporting the concept. Ben-Sasson’s own project Starknet last week announced its own three phase project to become quantum secure. The problem of large PQ signatures on Bitcoin Adding zero-knowledge proofs to Bitcoin does not make the blockchain quantum secure by itself. ZK proofs are a way to deal
