Sahara AI surges: Can its price recovery survive a 1.03B token unlock?
Sahara AI [SAHARA] was up around 21% at press time, as the AI token attempted to recover following its early sharp price crash. The daily trading volume has increased by 342%, surpassing $124 million. Here’s what caused this price surge after two weeks of decline. Sahara AI announces roadmap after 60% crash Sahara AI experienced a 60% crash two weeks ago, and the team denied any involvement. The sharp decline was fueled normal trading dynamics and broader crypto market structure. As per a tweet on X, Sahara AI outlined the clearest step was with their tokenomics, that is, extending lockups periods. @media only screen and (min-width: 0px) and (min-height: 0px) { div[id^="bsa-zone_1774359638628-7_123456"] { min-height: 50px; transition: min-height 0.3s ease; } } @media only screen and (min-width: 640px) and (min-height: 0px) { div[id^="bsa-zone_1774359638628-7_123456"] { min-height: 90px; } } AD Moreover, investor unlocks would be pushed back by three months while founder, core team, and advisor unlocks would be postponed for six months. This was to ensure the circulating supply remained intact at least in the short term. Additionally, they were planning to introduce a buyback program for their long-term treasury strategy, which would be funded by their revenue. However, the team dismissed token burns and do not plan to introduced one with the supply fixed. In response, both whale and retail sentiment turned bullish with strong signal strengths. Source: X SAHARA breaches short-term trendline but… SAHARA broke above a descending trendline on the hourly chart, but its price was pulling back for a retest. At the time of writing, the Bull Bear Power indicator showed buyers were in control while CVD affirmed the buying pressure. Notably, over 29 million SAHARA were bought after the recent tweet. Source: SAHARA/USDT on TradingView However, on the daily chart SAHARA was trading below the low created by the 67% crash. This is after invalidating the bullish reversal pattern on the retest of the neckline at $0.03. The altcoin remains below its June low, trading near $0.01315. To reclaim its pre‑crash market cap, SAHARA must hold the neckline as support. Source: SAHARA/USDT on TradingView Otherwise, the altcoin may continue declining as its market structure is still bearish. Upcoming token unlock and its impact on price While the daily surge may suggest potential recovery, there is still impending selling pressure from the upcoming token unlocks. As per Tokenomist AI, 30.10% of the released supply would hit the market in less than three days. This was equivalent to 1.03 billion SAHARA tokens worth $14.75 million. Source: Tokenomist AI Overall, SAHARA is in a make-or-break situation, as it has shown signs of recovery but continues to face selling pressure. Final Summary SAHARA AI rose more than 21% in 24 hours after announcing a clear long term commitment plan for its ecosystem. SAHARA price action was showing signs of recovery but upcoming token unlocks may present undue sell pressure.

Strategy's bitcoin purchase fails to stir BTC price
Back to the list Strategy's bitcoin purchase fails to stir BTC price coindesk.com 9 m The recovery in bitcoin stalled Tuesday even after Strategy (MSTR) bought more of the largest cryptocurrency following its end-May sale. Bitcoin was recently trading near $62,600, little changed from Monday. This follows Sunday's 4% bounce, which briefly took prices above $64,000 on some exchanges, including Coinbase. Strategy, the largest publicly listed bitcoin holder, said Monday it had bought 1,550 $BTC for $101 million, bringing its total stockpile to 845,256 coins. While that's about 48 times the 32 $BTC it sold in the final days of May, the purchase failed to stir the token's price. $BTC's immobility isn't doing any good to the broader market either. The CoinDesk DeFi Select Index has dropped 1.8% in 24 hours and the CoinDesk 80 Index is down 1.3%. The mood clearly remains risk-averse, with investors lacking conviction to chase upside. "Bitcoin's recent rebound shows there is still demand when prices pull back, but investors are not committing capital with the same level of confidence we saw earlier in the year," Daniel Reis-Faria, CEO of ZeroStack, said in an email. "While a lot of attention has been placed on Strategy's buying activity, the bigger factor remains the broader economic environment. Investors are paying close attention to inflation and interest rate expectations ahead of next week's FOMC meeting, as these factors influence how much risk they're willing to take across all asset classes, including crypto," Reis-Faria said. Derivatives positioning Total crypto futures volume slipped 1.3% to $190.7 billion in 24 hours while open interest held largely flat around $103 billion. Liquidations crashed 48% to $301 million, a sign that the most aggressive leverage has already been flushed from the system. ZEC is the standout in futures markets. Open interest has climbed roughly 5% to 2.47 million tokens, the highest since May 26, as the token trades at $472, sharply recovering from lows under $300 last week. Its 24-hour cumulative volume delta (CVD) is positive, meaning buyers are driving price action with market orders rather than passive limit orders. The catch is that annualized perpetual funding rates remain deeply negative at around -45%, meaning shorts are still firmly in control of positioning. That sets up a potential short squeeze should prices continue rising, as bears face mounting costs to hold their positions. Open interest in WLD remains just shy of last week's record 963.6 million tokens, signaling elevated positioning and heightened potential for price volatility. Bitcoin and ether open interest are steady near Monday levels. The 24-hour CVD for most major coins, including bitcoin and ether, is negative, meaning bears are leading price action across the broader market. BVIV and EVIV — bitcoin and ether's 30-day implied volatility indexes — continue their retreats from Friday's highs, suggesting panic is ebbing. But front-week implied volatility in both is sharply elevated, pointing to heightened expectations around Wednesday's U.S. CPI release. On Deribit, the $60,000 put remains a focal point and is among the most actively traded strikes across multiple expiries in the past 24 hours. The one-week risk reversal is heavily skewed toward puts, with $BTC puts trading at an 8 vol point premium to calls, a persistent signal that fears of a deeper price selloff have not gone away. Token talk Humanity Protocol's H token crashed more than 80% after attackers stole the private keys — the secret codes that control crypto wallets — of a Humanity Foundation member and drained more than $32 million from about 17 wallets, with losses still climbing. The token fell from about $0.67 to near $0.13 and briefly touched $0.05, a 24-hour drop of roughly 90%. The theft is still in progress. The attacker has been selling the stolen H for ether and minted another 100 million H, worth about $11 million, on BNB Chain, pointing to more selling pressure ahead. Humanity, a palm-scan identity project that pitches itself as a rival to , told users to stop touching its bridge and liquidity pools while it works with security firms and exchanges. The attack fits the dominant 2026 pattern of thieves going after keys rather than code. Solana's Drift lost about $285 million in April after attackers seized an administrative key, and Kelp DAO lost roughly $292 million the same month through a single-validator bridge. Sahara AI's $SAHARA fell about 60% to roughly $0.016, near its all-time low of $0.01355. About $215 million changed hands against a market cap near $49 million, turnover more than four times the token's size and the mark of a capitulation event. Unlike Humanity, Sahara said there were no security issues with its contracts or products, the same line it posted verbatim on Nov. 29, 2025, when the token fell from about 7 cents to 4 cents. It blamed a pre-scheduled 600 million token transfer to its Chainlink cross-chain bridge and said team and investor allocations are untouched on-chain. $SAHARA is now down roughly 75% since its June 2025 debut.

Danal Fintech Forges Transformative Partnership with Sahara AI to Revolutionize Digital Finance
In a landmark move that signals the accelerating convergence of traditional finance and cutting-edge technology, Danal Fintech has announced a strategic memorandum of understanding with decentralized AI platform Sahara AI. This partnership, confirmed in Seoul, South Korea, on April 15, 2025, aims to fundamentally reshape the landscape of digital financial services. Consequently, the collaboration will leverage Danal’s robust payment infrastructure and Sahara’s advanced artificial intelligence capabilities to pioneer next-generation solutions. Danal Fintech and Sahara AI Partnership Details The memorandum of understanding establishes a formal framework for cooperation between the two technology leaders. Danal Fintech, a prominent affiliate of the established Danal payment conglomerate, will contribute its extensive payment and settlement network. Simultaneously, Sahara AI will integrate its proprietary decentralized artificial intelligence and blockchain technology. This synergy specifically targets three core sectors: stablecoin development, payment system innovation, and AI-driven financial services. Industry analysts immediately recognized the announcement’s significance. The partnership directly addresses a growing market demand for more intelligent, autonomous, and secure financial tools. Furthermore, it represents a strategic response to the rapid evolution of both the cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence industries. By combining forces, the companies aim to create a seamless bridge between conventional financial operations and the decentralized digital economy. The Strategic Vision for Next-Generation Finance The core objective of this alliance is the development of integrated digital financial services that were previously theoretical. A primary focus involves embedding sophisticated payment functionalities directly into AI agents and autonomous systems. For instance, an AI personal assistant could not only manage a user’s schedule but also execute complex financial transactions securely on their behalf. This requires a fusion of reliable payment rails with intelligent, context-aware decision-making algorithms. Moreover, the collaboration will explore stablecoin applications that benefit from AI oversight. Potential use cases include algorithmic stabilization mechanisms, real-time risk assessment for cross-border settlements, and personalized financial products. The table below outlines the key contributions from each partner: Danal Fintech Contribution Sahara AI Contribution Licensed payment & settlement infrastructure Decentralized AI network and models Regulatory compliance frameworks Blockchain-based security and transparency Existing merchant and user networks Autonomous agent technology Fiat currency on/off ramps Predictive analytics and data processing This division of labor allows each entity to focus on its core competency while creating a combined offering greater than the sum of its parts. The initiative clearly aligns with global trends toward financial automation and embedded finance. Expert Analysis on Market Impact Financial technology experts point to several immediate implications of this deal. First, it validates the commercial viability of integrating AI directly into payment streams. Second, it highlights the growing importance of partnerships between established fintech firms and agile Web3-native platforms. Such collaborations are essential for navigating complex regulatory environments while still innovating rapidly. Historically, payment infrastructure and artificial intelligence developed along separate paths. Payment systems prioritized security, reliability, and compliance. Meanwhile, AI research focused on cognition, prediction, and automation. The Danal-Sahara partnership represents a concerted effort to merge these trajectories. The potential result is a new class of financial tools that are both incredibly smart and inherently trustworthy. Additionally, the choice of a decentralized AI platform like Sahara AI is noteworthy. It suggests a future where financial intelligence is not controlled by a single central entity but is distributed and verifiable. This could address growing consumer and regulatory concerns about bias, transparency, and control in AI-driven finance. Broader Context in the Evolving Fintech Landscape This announcement does not occur in a vacuum. The global fintech sector is experiencing unprecedented transformation driven by several parallel forces: Rise of Programmable Money: Stablecoins and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are creating new possibilities for automated, conditional payments. Proliferation of AI Agents: Autonomous software agents are moving from concept to reality, requiring native financial capabilities to operate effectively in the digital economy. Demand for Frictionless Experience: Consumers and businesses increasingly expect financial services to be invisible, instantaneous, and integrated into their daily digital workflows. Regulatory Scrutiny: Governments worldwide are crafting new rules for both crypto-assets and AI, making compliant innovation a key challenge. The Danal Fintech and Sahara AI partnership strategically positions itself at the intersection of all these trends. By building together, they aim to create solutions that are not only technologically advanced but also designed for a regulated market. This pragmatic approach may give them a significant advantage over projects that focus solely on technological disruption without regard for the existing financial ecosystem. The Technical Roadmap and Implementation Timeline While the MOU sets the strategic direction, implementation will follow a phased approach. Initial projects will likely focus on pilot programs and proof-of-concept demonstrations. These may include AI-powered fraud detection systems layered on Danal’s payment network or smart contract-enabled stablecoin trials for specific merchant use cases. Success in these controlled environments will pave the way for broader commercial rollout. The companies have not released a detailed public timeline, but industry observers expect tangible products to emerge within 12-18 months. The development process will undoubtedly involve close collaboration between software engineers, blockchain developers, financial compliance experts, and AI researchers. This interdisciplinary effort is characteristic of the next wave of fintech innovation, where deep specialization must be combined with holistic system design. Conclusion The strategic partnership between Danal Fintech and Sahara AI represents a significant milestone in the evolution of digital finance. This collaboration moves beyond mere speculation to concrete development of integrated systems where artificial intelligence directly empowers financial transactions. By combining proven payment infrastructure with decentralized AI innovation, the alliance aims to deliver secure, intelligent, and user-centric financial services. Ultimately, the success of this Danal Fintech and Sahara AI partnership could help define the standard for next-generation financial tools, making autonomous, AI-driven finance a practical reality for consumers and businesses alike. FAQs Q1: What is the main goal of the Danal Fintech and Sahara AI partnership? The primary goal is to develop next-generation digital financial services by integrating Danal’s payment and settlement infrastructure with Sahara’s decentralized AI technology, specifically focusing on stablecoins, advanced payment systems, and AI-agent-integrated finance. Q2: How will AI be used in payment systems through this collaboration? The partnership plans to embed payment capabilities directly into autonomous AI agents.

Q3: What is a decentralized AI platform, and why is it important for finance? A decentralized AI platform operates on a blockchain or distributed network, rather than being controlled by a single company. In finance, this can enhance transparency, reduce single points of failure or bias, and allow for verifiable and auditable AI-driven financial decisions. Q4: What are the potential benefits for consumers from this fintech and AI integration? Consumers could benefit from more personalized, efficient, and secure financial services. Examples include AI financial advisors with direct transaction capabilities, smarter fraud prevention, automated savings and investment tools, and seamless payment experiences across digital platforms. Q5: Does this partnership involve creating a new cryptocurrency or stablecoin? While the MOU explicitly mentions cooperation in the stablecoin sector, the announcement does not specify if a new token will be launched. The collaboration may focus on improving the infrastructure, usability, and intelligence surrounding existing or new stablecoin projects using their combined technological strengths.
Viewpoint: Quantum Computing Will Not Break Bitcoin by 2026, But Preparation Is Needed
BlockBeats News, December 25th, according to Cointelegraph, experts from Argentum AI, Coin Bureau, and other institutions stated in interviews that the 2026 threat of quantum computing to cryptocurrency is still in the theoretical stage rather than imminent. Clark Alexander, Head of AI at Argentum AI, stated that the commercial application of quantum computing in 2026 is expected to be extremely limited. Nic Puckrin, Co-Founder of Coin Bureau, stated that 90% of the quantum threat theory is for marketing purposes, and it will be at least another decade before a computer capable of breaking existing cryptography appears. Nevertheless, experts pointed out potential risks to the public key cryptography relied upon by blockchain networks like Bitcoin. Sofiia Kireieva, an expert from Boosty Labs, pointed out that the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) used for private and public keys is the weakest link, while the SHA-256 hash function has lower vulnerability. Ahmad Shadid, Founder of O Foundation, stated that address reuse significantly increases the risk of being hacked. Currently, about 25% to 30% of BTC (around 4 million coins) is stored in addresses where the public key has been exposed, making these addresses more susceptible to attacks by quantum computers. Sean Ren, Co-Founder of Sahara AI, warned that the real threat in 2026 is not a system crash but attackers collecting as much encrypted data as possible to decrypt it when the technology matures in the future. Leo Fan, Co-Founder of Cysic, described this as a "collect first, decrypt later" attack scenario. To address the potential threat, the crypto community has taken action. Qastle announced in November plans to provide quantum-grade security protection for hot wallets by upgrading the underlying cryptography. Experts recommend users avoid address reuse and promptly move funds when quantum-resistant wallets become available. While there won't be a quantum doomsday in 2026, quantum computing will become an advanced risk factor in the field of crypto security.
Quantum computing will not cause a cryptocurrency collapse in 2026, but caution is needed regarding the "collect now, decrypt later" risk
