The 2026 Digital Asset Outlook report highlights that regulatory developments, rather than concerns over quantum computing, will be the primary influence on cryptocurrency markets in the coming year. The report suggests that as governments worldwide continue to refine and implement crypto regulations, these policies will significantly impact market dynamics and investor behavior. While quantum computing remains a topic of interest, its potential effects on blockchain security are not expected to be a major factor in 2026. Instead, the focus will be on how regulatory frameworks evolve and their implications for market participants, including exchanges, investors, and blockchain projects.
