Jim Cramer to sell all his Bitcoin over quantum... computing fears Jim Cramer (Jim Cramer) said on CNBC's Mad Money that he plans to sell his entire Bitcoin position, warning quantum computing could seriously threaten the network within three years and that investors should be "paranoid" about it. Crypto Twitter responded by dusting off the inverse Cramer playbook, with $BTC trading up around 1% near $63.7K in the hours after the segment. It's worth noting that Bitcoin developers have discussed quantum-resistant upgrades for years, and post-quantum standards are already in the works.show more

Bitcoin developers just proposed freezing early BTC wallets forever... Bitcoin developers led by Jameson Lopp have published BIP-361, a post-quantum migration proposal. It requires holders to move their coins to quantum-resistant addresses or face permanent freezing by the network. The plan would phase out legacy ECDSA and Schnorr signatures over several years, rendering them invalid if quantum computing threats materialize. Developers argue the move is a necessary defensive measure to protect the network before sufficiently powerful quantum computers arrive.show more

🔐 SATOSHI'S 1 MILLION BITCOIN AT RISK OF BEING... STOLEN AS DEVS PUSH QUANTUM FIX Bitcoin developers have merged BIP-360 into the official BIP repository, introducing a new quantum-resistant address type called Pay-to-Merkle-Root (P2MR) to protect the network from future quantum computing threats. An estimated 6.51 million BTC, roughly 33% of the total supply, sits in addresses vulnerable to quantum attacks. This includes Satoshi Nakamoto's estimated 1 million coins stored in early P2PK addresses with fully exposed public keys. A separate proposal co-authored by Jameson Lopp would freeze coins in legacy addresses that fail to migrate to quantum-safe formats within a set deadline, sparking intense debate within the Bitcoin community.show more

Trump Sets 2031 Deadline As Quantum Threat Looms Over... Crypto Donald Trump has signed two executive orders mandating all U.S. federal systems migrate to post-quantum encryption by 2031. The move follows warnings that quantum computers could crack modern crypto, including Bitcoin, as early as 2030. Earlier, Coinbase's quantum advisory board warned around 7 million Bitcoin bitcoin:native sit in addresses exposed to a future quantum attack.show more

Bitcoin Wallets Get A New Quantum Shield Crypto custodian... BitGo has launched new quantum protection tools for institutional Bitcoin $BTC wallets. The security upgrade is designed to help institutions assess and reduce quantum related risks across UTXO based wallets. BitGo said the tools build on its multisignature architecture with a patent pending approach to better secure partially spent funds. The move comes as the crypto industry increases focus on long term resilience against advances in quantum computing.show more

Quantum Computers to Hit Banks First Before Bitcoin? Billionaire... investor Tim Draper (Tim Draper) says quantum computers are more likely to crack banks before Bitcoin $BTC. Draper argued that Bitcoin holders would have options if the network ever faced a quantum attack. He added that the community could fork the blockchain and restore security if needed.show more

ZCASH SURGES 59% AS QUANTUM RESISTANCE NARRATIVE CATCHES A... BID $ZEC is up 58% on the week to $374, outperforming Bitcoin by a wide margin as Google's quantum computing research flagged risks to Bitcoin and Ethereum's elliptic curve cryptography, sending traders rotating into quantum-aware assets. ZEC doesn't rely on the ECDSA scheme at the center of Google's warning, building instead on zero-knowledge proof systems that sit outside that vulnerability. The quantum narrative stacks on top of an already strong setup: Grayscale's first-ever privacy coin ETF filing, the SEC closing its Zcash investigation with no action in January, and the shielded pool hitting a record $5.18B. Analyst Ali Martinez has $440 as the next target.show more

We believe the future of enterprise computing will bring... AI, HPC, and quantum together. That’s why, today, Quantinuum and Oracle have announced a multi-year strategic partnership to bring quantum computing to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure customers and accelerate the commercial adoption of hybrid quantum-AI computing. As part of the collaboration, our Helios quantum computer will be deployed in a U.S.-based Oracle AI data center, alongside OCI’s HPC and GPU infrastructure, and made available through OCI’s quantum service to give OCI customers a practical and secure way to explore how high-fidelity quantum computing can complement existing AI and HPC workloads—using the governance and access controls they already rely on.

Most people look at Quip through the lens of... post-quantum security. I think the more interesting story is happening somewhere else. Instead of asking users to learn quantum computing, Quip Network is quietly embedding quantum technology into products people can already use. Quantum randomness powers NFTs. Node operators contribute compute through simple tooling. BTC holders get access to quantum-resistant protection. Builders are already creating wallets and explorers on top of the network. Each product introduces a different piece of the quantum stack, but the user never has to understand the underlying science. That is a much harder problem to solve than building the technology itself. The real opportunity for Quip may not be making quantum computing more powerful. It may be making quantum computing invisible. Nucleusshow more

🚨 BITCOIN: ELON MUSK ON GOOGLE QUANTUM THREAT: "IF... YOU FORGOT THE PASSWORD TO YOUR WALLET, IT WILL BE ACCESSIBLE IN THE FUTURE" Elon Musk responded to the escalating Google quantum computing debate with his characteristic humor after Max the VC summarized Google's position as: "We've cut the quantum resources needed to break Bitcoin's encryption by 20x. We can now break it. We can prove it. We're just not going to tell you how." Max was quote-tweeting Nic Carter's original thread on Google moving its post-quantum cryptography deadline to 2029. Musk quipped "On the plus side, if you forgot the password to your wallet, it will be accessible in the future" alongside a Grok response estimating the earliest plausible date for cracking ECC-256 (used by Bitcoin and Ethereum) at late 2028-2029 under aggressive scenarios, with conservative consensus pointing to early-to-mid 2030s. An estimated 6.9M BTC (~32% of supply) sits in wallets with exposed public keys. Ethereum has an active post-quantum roadmap. Bitcoin has no coordinated migration plan.show more
