The European Supervisory Authorities have identified a critical timeline discrepancy where quantum decryption capabilities could emerge before commercial viability, directly threatening approximately 6.9 million Bitcoin held in legacy wallets. This regulatory warning underscores the immediate necessity for network-wide consensus on post-quantum cryptographic standards to protect assets currently exposed via visible public keys. The urgency highlighted by ESMA forces the crypto community to address infrastructure hardening years ahead of anticipated quantum hardware maturity.
Quantum threat to Bitcoin could materialize before commercial viability, EU regulators warn
ESMA released a report warning of the risks quantum computing poses. (Planet Volumes/Unsplash) European financial regulators warned that advanced quantum computers could eventually break cryptography protecting blockchains, potentially putting about 6.9 million Bitcoin, worth roughly $586 billion, at risk. Older or reused Bitcoin addresses are especially vulnerable because their public keys may already be visible…
