Former Meta Engineer: Quantum Computing and Miners Are Bitcoin’s Two Ticking Time Bombs A former Meta engineer TechLead says Bitcoin faces two ticking time bombs that have yet to be defused: quantum computing and the future of miner incentives. Quantum advances could one day threaten Bitcoin wallet security, while the lack of a sustainable fee market raises questions about long-term network security as mining rewards decline. He also challenges Bitcoin’s vision as a sovereign currency, arguing that governments are unlikely to tolerate a monetary system beyond their control.

🔥CHARLES HOSKINSON ON BITCOIN’S QUANTUM CRISIS: "TO DO NOTHING WOULD RESULT IN OVER 8 MILLION $BTC BEING STOLEN.” Hoskinson says Bitcoin cannot ignore the quantum threat forever. He suggested the network to either add optional post-quantum signatures, or freeze legacy accounts that fail to migrate. His bigger argument, however, was that Bitcoin lacks a clear governance layer to make that choice. During the Consensus Miami event, he warns of over 50% chance quantum computers could threaten crypto security by 2033.

Quantum computers pose two threats to Bitcoin: Threat 1: A quantum computer will be built and used to break Bitcoin's cryptography. Threat 2: Even before a QC is built, delaying the preparations to ensure Bitcoin is quantum ready will lead to people losing confidence in Bitcoin. The solution to both threats: ensure Bitcoin becomes quantum resistant via initiatives like BIP 360 + make sure the world knows this will be taken care of in time.

Former Meta Engineer Explains Why He Sold All His Bitcoin Former Meta engineer TechLead has resurfaced after a period of silence, admitting he has liquidated his entire Bitcoin position. He argues that Bitcoin's core problem is that "attention is liquidity" — the NFT bubble proved that holding alone can't sustain a price, and the people who used to talk about Bitcoin have largely gone quiet. He believes AI has now absorbed nearly all of the market's attention, leaving little room for a fresh wave of buying anytime soon.Still, he says he remains bullish long-term and plans to buy back in at a lower price.

BITCOIN RAILS #34: Bitcoin’s Security & Quantum Risks—and the Future of Satoshi’s Coins | with Jameson Lopp Jameson Lopp “Most people don’t think about security until it’s too late,” says the Casa co-founder and CSO. One of the most prolific thought-leaders in Bitcoin security and privacy, there are few people who understand the nuances of Bitcoin security quite as deeply - not to mention the OPSEC practices required to protect against wrench attacks, for instance, which are rising globally as Bitcoin price increases. More recently, Lopp has turned his attention to mitigating Bitcoin’s quantum vulnerabilities, including market risks associated with quantum-vulnerable Satoshi’s Coins + longer-term strategies for quantum-hardening of Bitcoin addresses long term. In this special episode of Bitcoin Rails, we cover: - Lopp’s experiences designing self-custody products at both BitGo and Casa - The swatting attack he suffered in 2017, and the radical steps he’s taken to secure his home location since - The ‘quantum computing’ challenge for Bitcoin and its impacts on Satoshi’s Coins - How the network may respond to QCs in the face of ossification and why QC preparation may be the hardest governance test the network has ever faced This episode is powered by: - Best In Slot (Best in Slot | BRC2.0 🧑‍🍳), the leading API for Ordinals and BRC20 data aggregation and indexing - Spark (Lightspark), a statechains implementation leading the path towards institutional adoption of Bitcoin-powered payments - Citrea (Citrea), the leading Bitcoin Rollup technology and contributor to the BitVM alliance 📌 Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: Quantum Computing Meets Bitcoin 00:19 – Jameson Lopp on the Bitcoin Rails 00:53 – The Quantum Threat to Bitcoin Security 06:32 – Lopp’s Path into Bitcoin & Security 12:58 – The Swatting Attack During the Block Size Wars 25:28 – Could Quantum Crack Satoshi’s Coins? 43:55 – Announcements & Sponsors Messages 45:30 – Building Bitcoin’s Quantum Resistance 47:00 – QBTC and the Push for Quantum-Resistant Bitcoin 48:43 – Why Changing Bitcoin Is So Hard 51:19 – Email Protocols, Ossification, and Bitcoin’s Future 01:01:53 – A Roadmap for Quantum Resistance

In two weeks he's disproven the entirety of the mega bear case" Dave on how Saylor quietly dismantled the entire bear case in two weeks "The market cares about two things. One, what's going to be the value of their Bitcoin reserve, and two, does he have access to capital markets" "What have we learned the last two weeks? We've learned that he could sell Bitcoin and the price could rise and go up. And he's not even buying. And we learned that he could access capital markets without touching Bitcoin and raise cash if he needs to" "Basically what he's done in the last two weeks is disproven the entirety of the mega bear case, the disastrous circle, the flush down the drain"

Adam Back's Bitcoin Standard is set to cross 50,000 Bitcoin and become the second largest treasury company on the planet "Bitcoin Standard already holds 30,021 Bitcoin. They have a $1.5 billion pipe sitting on the sidelines that could buy another 23,500 Bitcoin. That puts them over 50,000 Bitcoin and makes them the second largest treasury company on the planet" "Strategy's cost basis is up in the 70s. They vacillate between a 9-10-11 billion dollar on paper loss. Bitcoin Standard could YOLO all in this week and their cost basis would be much lower than Strategy's"

I built a wallet app that sends sBTC using bitcoin addresses instead of Stacks addresses. That's layer 2 sats sent from bitcoin address to bitcoin address in seconds for < $0.01 via the Stacks network: ✅Standard bitcoin addresses ✅Standard sign and broadcast semantics ✅Confirmation in seconds ✅Low fees ✅Self-custody ✅Bitcoin finality While this wallet is a prototype that works only with native Segwit addresses and requires or Leather - Grow your Bitcoin for transaction signing, Bitcoin addresses for sBTC (or all Stacks assets) could be adopted natively by any wallets. It doesn't require any changes to the Stacks core network. This address scheme could even be expanded so that fast, easy and cheap layer 2 BTC transactions could also work with legacy addresses. Here's how it works: Bitcoin legacy and native segwit addresses along with Stacks addresses all encode the so-called "hash160" of the user's public key. This means we can convert these two types of bitcoin addresses into a Stacks address and any Stacks address into either a legacy or native segwit bitcoin address. Using bitcoin addresses instead of Stacks addresses allows us to reuse many of the payment standards and QR code formats that have already been developed for bitcoin. It makes sBTC a true layer 2 bitcoin.

VanEck CEO Jan van Eck on CNBC: “There’s something else going on within the Bitcoin community that non-crypto people need to know about. And that is: ultimately, VanEck has been around before Bitcoin. We will walk away from Bitcoin if we think the thesis is fundamentally broken. We don’t right now, but you always have to look at the underlying technology and the crypto. What the Bitcoin community has been asking itself is: Is there enough encryption in Bitcoin, because quantum computing is coming? And secondly: Is there enough privacy in Bitcoin? And so a lot of Bitcoin OGs or maxis have been looking at Zcash. Zcash is a token. It’s sort of related to Bitcoin with a lot more privacy. The kind of garbage that we got about Bitcoin four years ago was: ‘It’s used for all bad illicit behavior.’ But now everyone kind of realizes that when you move money around on the Bitcoin blockchain, you can see it. You can see it move from one wallet to another. And a lot of people are looking for more privacy.”

Buying cuban cigars for bitcoin in 2023 Today, ₿180,000 is about $190. To anyone thinking, ‘OMG, how could you miss out on those Bitcoin gains? You should have HODL'd! Gresham's Law dude!’ I could’ve spent Cuban pesos instead of bitcoin, sure. But I want to support freedom money in one of the last bastions of communism. I do not regret it. To the point about Gresham's law, it simply doesn't apply to Bitcoin. Gresham’s Law applies when a government legally mandates a fixed exchange rate between two monies—something that never happens with bitcoin’s market-driven, floating timechain value—so there’s no enforced overvaluation to drive out the “good” money. IMO, the real opportunity cost is NOT the bitcoin I spent on this cigar—it’s the fiat you hold right now that is not Bitcoin. Every single time you spend fiat, you could have spent bitcoin or HODld bitcoin. Think about that for a second. (Not financial advice obvs)
