Bitcoin developers are increasingly backing BIP-360 as a proactive move to prepare the network for the quantum era.
🔐 Most devs agree that quantum computers are not an immediate threat machines powerful enough to break today’s cryptography are likely decades away.
But the real issue isn’t today’s risk, it’s long-term readiness.
💣 Bitcoin currently relies on elliptic curve cryptography, which could become vulnerable in a fully realized quantum scenario especially for old, unmoved wallets.
🧠 BIP-360 aims to future-proof Bitcoin:
Quantum-resistant address formats
Gradual, opt-in migration
No network shock
🏦 While governments and major corporations are already moving toward post-quantum standards, Bitcoin can’t afford to stay still.
📌 The question is no longer “When does quantum arrive?”
👉 It’s “Will Bitcoin be ready when cryptographic standards change?”
And that’s exactly what institutional capital is watching closely.
