Bitcoin May Avoid Immediate Quantum Upgrade With New Workaround: Study
A Bitcoin transaction that costs $75 to $150 in GPU compute is not built for daily use, but it may still matter. StarkWare chief product officer Avihu Levy has put forward a scheme called Quantum Safe Bitcoin, or QSB, that he says could make new BTC transfers resistant to quantum attacks without changing the Bitcoin […]

New research shows Bitcoin is facing a discount of about 20% due to the Quantum Computing threat, and it could rise further without an upgrade. Bitcoin Quantum Discount Could Hit 60% By 2028 Capriole Investments founder Charles Edwards has published a new research piece on how the Quantum Computing risk could discount the fair value of […]
Ethereum could be approaching a defining turning point, a rare opportunity to rebuild from the ground up rather than continue evolving piece by piece. With the proposed Quantum upgrade gaining attention, developers and researchers are exploring changes that go beyond routine improvements, potentially rethinking security, scalability, and long-term resilience. Rather than layering fixes onto an already complex system, this moment opens the door to a clean-slate redesign. How Quantum Resistance Could Future-Proof Ethereum An Ethereum researcher, Justin Drake, who co-authored Google’s....
Quantum computing is a form of computing based on quantum physics. Where classical computers rely on bits (zeros or ones) to make calculations, quantum computers use quantum bits (qubits) that leverage quantum mechanics to exist in a “superposition”: a combination of zero and one, with some ...
