Can a sufficiently powerful quantum computer forge the signatures used to authorize Bitcoin and Ethereum transactions? What would it take to upgrade both networks before that happens? In this new lecture, Stanford cryptographer Dan Boneh explores why blockchains may turn to signatures built from hash functions. He also presents new research on threshold signing. The talk ends with the questions Bitcoin still has to answer, including whether post-quantum signatures will require larger blocks, what happens to abandoned coins, and how someone such as Satoshi could prove ownership after Bitcoin’s current signatures have been retired. 00:00 Why blockchains need to prepare for quantum computers 03:05 Why Bitcoin may bet on hash-based signatures 06:25 The “big footgun” in stateful signatures 08:58 A quantum-safe signature that takes one billion hashes 14:13 Inside SLH-DSA’s virtual tree 20:30 How Bitcoin and Ethereum could make the switch 23:48 What happens when a wallet loses its state? 32:47 Can threshold signing survive the quantum transition? 36:39 How to hide lattice cryptography from the blockchain 38:49 Why threshold one-time signatures seem impossible 45:36 How context prevents forged signatures 49:37 The forgotten idea behind Winternitz signatures 54:50 Turning one-time signatures into threshold signatures 1:04:27 Will quantum-safe signatures require bigger Bitcoin blocks? 1:06:26 Abandoned bitcoin and Satoshi’s recovery problem

Bitcoin is money AND digital gold. The two are not mutually exclusive. For Michael Saylor - it's the purest form of digital credit. For David Marcus - it's the payment rails of the future. "No one cares what humans think about how people need to Bitcoin because it's an unopinionated, code-based money platform." The Lightspark founder is forging ahead with building Bitcoin-based payment rails, while Saylor and Strategy are doubling down on Bitcoin-backed financial products. "I'm really grateful that Michael is really focused on the store of value use case, and he can do that, and I can be the one focused on bringing utility to Bitcoin. Both things will actually help one another to make Bitcoin more relevant to many more people and that's the beauty of building on an open network," Marcus told Robert Baggs and me on our latest Chain Reaction show. Marcus has been keenly focused on abstracting complexity away from payments using Bitcoin payments infrastructure with the launch of Lightspark Grid. "It's like Bitcoin as a network being used to move all kinds of other money, whether it's stablecoin or fiat at the edges, and you don't even understand that you're using Bitcoin. For instance, if you're a SoFi client in the US, and you want to send money to Europe or India, Brazil or Mexico, you send dollars and the other person on the other side receives Mexican peso, you have no clue you're using Bitcoin. And it's like magical TCP/IP for money between payment systems in the world." Bitcoin infrastructure works. Like most widely adopted technologies, the average person has no idea what's going on under the hood. That is the future that takes Bitcoin global. And it's being built in real-time.

Double Down #0: Tristan Dickinson lays out Bitcoin's Collateral Thesis 🟧 Every reserve asset eventually becomes collateral. Gold did it thousands of years ago. #Bitcoin is next, and it's better built for the job: liquid, scarce, verifiable, self-custodial, available 24/7. The blocker was never the asset. It was the infrastructure. Borrowing against your $BTC meant trusting a lender (Celsius, FTX) or a bridge. The real unlock: collateral with no wrappers, no bridges, no one to trust but code. That's what Tristan is building at Babylon. + El Salvador, why Saylor finally sold and price calls from $1M to $13M Timestamps 0:00 Introduction & episode highlights 2:56 What "institutional Bitcoin" really means 7:35 From airlines to banking: Tristan's path to Bitcoin 14:00 The credit card story that broke his faith in banks 18:45 Discovering the Bitcoin whitepaper 22:00 Did Bitcoin fail as "peer-to-peer cash"?

DROPS E35: Core DAO 🔶 - Bitcoin yield without giving up your Bitcoin Rich is one of the initial contributors to Core DAO, the leading Bitcoin scaling solution. He's also a long-time Zcash holder and early backer of Z Protocol , a new privacy chain built on Core's Satoshi Plus consensus. We talk Bitcoin yield, financial privacy, AI surveillance, and why the next big move in crypto might not be where most people are looking. We talk about: - How Core DAO lets you earn yield on Bitcoin by time-locking it - without ever giving up custody - Why borrowing against Bitcoin makes sense now - OG Bitcoiners rotating to Zcash - what "transition" actually means and whether it's bad for Bitcoin - Z Protocol as the DeFi layer for private money - Why AI has made financial surveillance trivial - and why that accelerates privacy adoption - How Agents are leaving full financial fingerprints - and why privacy needs to be default on at the chain level And much more...

Upstream Data has a new software initiative starting with our LoadSync™ industrial bitcoin mining controller. We converted from PLC controls to a much more scalable embedded Linux based architecture. This project is led by b_rowan and James Hilliard. Brett gives an overview of what it can do today, but there's so much more coming soon! LoadSync is just the beginning of our software plans, I can't wait to show you what we have in store. Our long term goal for LoadSync is to have a drop-in product for every bitcoin mine on the planet at any scale. A complete fleet management tool for everything associated with a bitcoin mining load. LoadSync is built upon an open source library also maintained by Brett, called PyASIC. More and more bitcoin miners are integrating PyASIC every day, you should too! Go find it on GitHub. At Upstream Data we intend to continue leading the industry in technology, product application and high performance bitcoin mining infrastructure.

THIS IS WHAT A REAL FLUSH LOOKS LIKE Charles Schwab, one of the largest financial institutions in the world, said the #Bitcoin selloff was driven by a full liquidation event. They described a market where momentum broke, funding rates turned deeply negative, implied volatility spiked above 90, and long positions were forced out. From their perspective, that kind of washout often marks a local bottom, which is why they began positioning for a rebound on behalf of institutional clients. Schwab also explained how the move fed on itself. Retail borrowers using Bitcoin-backed loans were margin-called and forced to sell, while institutional clients with large $BTC holdings were able to meet margin requirements without selling. Their takeaway was simple: this wasn’t fundamentals breaking. It was leverage getting flushed -- and the recovery that followed looked healthy.

Hey guys, can we talk about this for a second… Bitcoin Today X-Spaces and a lot of the big Bitcoin accounts have been quietly silencing smaller high-alpha voices for a while now: Muting, excluding, shadow-banning… you know, the usual stuff we’ve all just kind of accepted as “the way it is.” But honestly? It’s getting worse. I stand with JDOG J.Dog ᛤ 🎯 for the courage to say what everyone is thinking Its Voices with courage like this that I’ve been talking about on Spaces that will be one of the Voices to emerge and lead us through future market cycles We really need to start supporting the genuine smaller accounts, the independent Spaces, and the real builders who actually care about Bitcoin’s future… not just chasing clout and bigger numbers. The crazy part is… the bigger some of these accounts get, the more they start acting like the exact gatekeepers we came here to escape as believers in Bitcoin and other Freedom Principles If you’re tired of this kind of centralized censorship happening inside Bitcoin Twitter… Drop your favorite underrated Bitcoin account or Space in the replies 👇 And RT if you believe we should keep the conversation open and support the smaller voices Let’s actually do something about it #Bitcoin #BTCToday #CensorshipResistance #FreeSpeech #BitcoinSpaces #Nostr #SmallAccountsMatter

XRP BECOMES FIRST ALTCOIN WITH INSTITUTIONAL SETTLEMENT TOOLS Coinbase 🛡️ officially activated Trade at Settlement (TAS) for $XRP futures on May 1, putting $XRP on the same footing as Bitcoin, Ethereum, gold, and crude oil futures. TAS lets institutions execute block orders at the 4 PM settlement price instead of live intraday markets, removing major friction for high-volume execution. A separate Coinbase market maker program also went live the same day to deepen $XRP order book liquidity. The infrastructure is now built. The remaining question is whether the capital actually shows up.
