Binance founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao said on Friday, October 23, that fears of AI hacking crypto are misplaced. Both the internet and banking systems run on weaker encryption, but he warned that AI is already making phishing and social engineering more dangerous for ordinary users. CZ’s post led Friday’s Bitcoin news as the price sat at $81,817, down 0.8% in 24 hours. Bitcoin held $81,000 overnight. Whale wallets kept buying. So, are the AI and quantum threats real, and what does BTC need to bounce from here? --> Not to the code, at least for now. AI models can find software bugs and write convincing scams, but they cannot solve the math that protects a Bitcoin private key.
