- —ESAs list external dependencies, emerging tech and private credit as top EU financial risks
- —Clearing, repo and credit rating markets in the EU rely heavily on non-EU entities
- —AI and quantum computing flagged as threats to cryptography, including blockchains
- —CryptoQuant estimates roughly 6.89 million BTC could face future quantum exposure
Why it matters: The warning is likely to accelerate the EU's push toward post-quantum cryptography and increase scrutiny of crypto infrastructure dependent on non-EU providers.
