Gate's prediction market has completed multiple functional upgrades, with simultaneous expansion of search, classification, and sports derivative gameplay

The digital asset trading platform Gate has announced the completion of a new round of feature upgrades for its prediction market, optimizing multiple modules such as the search system, leaderboard, event classification, and sports gameplay around hot topic discovery, strategy trading, and user interaction efficiency.In this upgrade, Gate has added intelligent search and a "Live & Hot" section, supporting fuzzy keyword matching, hot event recommendations, and real-time hot topic aggregation, helping users discover trading opportunities more efficiently. The platform has also launched a secondary classification system and a "Breaking News" section, covering hot content such as major news, sports events, and cryptocurrency market fluctuations. In the sports prediction market, Gate has introduced derivative gameplay such as point spreads and totals, and optimized the interaction for quick ordering and score selection, further enhancing the trading experience. Additionally, the platform has officially launched a prediction market leaderboard, covering multiple dimensions such as profit and loss, trading volume, and highest profit, strengthening strategy discovery and trading social attributes.Currently, Gate's prediction market has deeply integrated with the Polymarket ecosystem, allowing users to directly access the Polymarket page through the Alpha section on the Gate App homepage and participate in event predictions using USDT in their accounts, further lowering the participation threshold and operational complexity. With a convenient entry point and continuously growing user activity, Gate's performance in the Polymarket partnership channel remains leading, currently ranking in the top three.

Opinion: The Bitcoin community is reaching a preliminary consensus on quantum threats and promoting a roadmap for quantum-resistant upgrades

According to FinanceFeeds, Alex Thorn, the research director of Galaxy Digital, stated that as advancements in quantum computing hardware accelerate, the Bitcoin community is shifting from decentralized debates to forming a preliminary consensus on quantum threats. The core direction is to gradually introduce post-quantum cryptography (PQC) through soft forks, achieving an upgrade of the address system and long-term security assurance.The report points out that the current Bitcoin signature mechanism, which uses the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm, can theoretically be cracked by Shor's algorithm. Approximately 2 million BTC from early p2pkh addresses are at risk because their public keys have been exposed, facing the potential risk of "collecting first and decrypting later." The community tends to promote a "migration window" mechanism to guide users in transferring their assets to new quantum-resistant addresses, and after a multi-year grace period, to implement freezing or destruction of untransferred assets to prevent large-scale market impacts in extreme situations. Additionally, the consensus includes enhancing "cryptographic agility," which allows protocols to switch signature algorithms without interrupting the network.The current proposal leans towards a dual-signature mechanism that uses ECDSA and PQC (such as Dilithium) in parallel, ensuring security redundancy while facilitating a smooth transition. Analysts believe that this approach transforms the quantum threat from a "black swan event" into a manageable technological upgrade, helping to solidify Bitcoin's security foundation as a long-term store of value asset.
