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.

Bitcoin’s Quantum Threat is Getting Harder to Ignore Fidelity Digital Assets says Bitcoin’s bitcoin:native private key protections may eventually need replacement or supplementation. Cryptographically relevant quantum computers do not exist today, but future systems could threaten current signatures. A powerful quantum computer could use Shor’s algorithm to derive private keys from public keys. Researchers are already evaluating quantum resistant alternatives, including the SHRINCS signature system. Any upgrade would face major tradeoffs involving transaction size, fees and network capacity. Source: Bitcoin's Path to Quantum Resistance by Fidelity

What a day! 🤯 Algorand was mentioned 32 times by Google in its whitepaper on quantum risks, highlighting its leading work in PQC! Not sure everyone realizes how BIG this is, massive credibility for $ALGO and huge recognition for the team! 👏 Algorand has been one of the few blockchains/DLTs taking the quantum threat seriously for years, as it's not a question of if but when. Post-quantum implementation takes time and resources, it needs to be anticipated! The past few months have been incredible for $ALGO on that front, as it became one of the first major chains to execute a post-quantum transaction on mainnet using NIST-selected Falcon signatures! Not to mention the great news from a few days ago, with Chris Peikert officially joining Algorand Foundation from AT after the merge! So exciting, as Chris is literally one of the world's leading experts in post-quantum cryptography! What a chance for Algorand to have him and some of the best experts in PQC on its team! SO BULLISH 🔥🔥

‼️ALERT: ETHEREUM'S TOP 1,000 WALLETS COULD BE DRAINED IN NINE DAYS WITHOUT A QUANTUM UPGRADE Google's quantum research team warns that a future fast-clock quantum computer could compromise Ethereum's 1,000 highest-value accounts in less than nine days. Those accounts collectively hold approximately 20.5 million $ETH. Bitcoin users can avoid exposing their public keys. Ethereum users cannot. The moment an Ethereum user sends their first transaction, their public key is permanently exposed on the blockchain, according to the report. It stays exposed indefinitely. The paper identifies five distinct quantum attack vectors on Ethereum. Among the most alarming is the threat to smart contract admin keys. Those keys control over $200 billion in stablecoins and tokenised real-world assets. Ethereum's Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism also relies on quantum-vulnerable BLS signatures. A sufficiently advanced quantum attacker could use this to compromise the blockchain's finality itself. There is a silver lining. The Ethereum Foundation is already researching post-quantum alternatives. The paper suggests this gives Ethereum a potential advantage over Bitcoin in executing an orderly transition to quantum-safe cryptography.

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.

🚨 JUST IN: Google says 500,000 qubits could crack a crypto key in 9 minutes. #Ripple's answer: the $XRP Ledger goes fully post-quantum by 2028. The first major blockchain with an actual deadline. The part nobody noticed: → Only 0.03% of $XRP supply is exposed to quantum attack → Bitcoin: 35% → The NSA wants US systems quantum-safe by 2027. XRPL beats the federal government to it. Q-Day contingency already live. NIST algorithms already testing on AlphaNet. While other chains debate it, #XRPL put a date on it.

🚨 CRYPTO: CARDANO RANKED SECOND MOST QUANTUM-READY BLOCKCHAIN IN GOOGLE RESEARCH ASSESSMENT Cardano Community ( $ADA ) has been ranked the second most quantum-ready blockchain, according to analysis tied to Google Quantum AI's latest research, placing it ahead of Bitcoin and XRP Ledger in post-quantum preparedness. The ranking highlights Cardano's Nightstream initiative, a lattice-based cryptography project announced by founder Charles Hoskinson at Consensus Hong Kong in February 2026, developed with researchers linked to Google and Microsoft. Nightstream is designed to be fast, scalable, and efficient on AI chips, targeting quantum resistance well before the projected 2030s deadline for large-scale quantum computing threats. The assessment comes as Google's paper revealed a 20x reduction in resources needed to break the elliptic curve cryptography protecting most blockchains, with Ethereum actively running post-quantum testnets and Bitcoin having no coordinated migration plan. Quantum-resistant tokens surged in the 24 hours following the paper's release.

🚨 CRYPTO: ALGORAND SURGES 16% IN 24 HOURS AFTER GOOGLE QUANTUM AI PAPER CITES $ALGO 32 TIMES AS POST-QUANTUM PIONEER Algorand ( $ALGO ) has jumped 16% in 24 hours to $0.1053 after Google Quantum AI's landmark paper on blockchain quantum vulnerabilities cited the network 32 times, more than any other chain besides Bitcoin and Ethereum. Google described Algorand as "the perfect example of real-world deployment of post-quantum cryptography on an otherwise quantum-vulnerable blockchain." The paper highlighted Algorand's live FALCON digital signatures for smart contracts, state proofs, native key rotation, and multi-layered post-quantum security infrastructure. Trading volume spiked 162% in 24 hours and futures open interest jumped 55% to $58.9 million. The rally is especially dramatic given ALGO hit an all-time low of $0.08 just days earlier following a 25% Foundation workforce cut, CTO departure, and board reshuffle. The token is now up ~20% on the week as the quantum narrative provided a lifeline to a battered community.

He argued the industry will receive warning before cryptographically relevant quantum computers emerge. Williams said researchers would report major breakthroughs long before hackers gain access. He believes that window will give blockchains time to adopt quantum safe cryptography. The comments came in response to NEAR protocol's recent warning about quantum risks.
