đš 6.26 MILLION $BTC COULD FACE A FUTURE QUANTUM COMPUTING RISK. đ
And no, this doesnât mean Bitcoin is getting hacked tomorrow. But the numbers are worth paying attention to. đ
đ According to Glassnode data reported on October 8:
đž 4.33 MILLION $BTC sit in reused Bitcoin addresses â around 21.5% of the circulating supply.
â ïž THE BIGGER CONCERN? QUANTUM COMPUTING.
When Bitcoin addresses are reused after spending, their public keys can remain exposed on the blockchain. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could potentially exploit vulnerable exposed keys.
And the bigger number?
đŁ 6.26 MILLION $BTC have exposed public keys, including older address types â roughly 31.2% of the total supply.
Before anyone starts screaming âBITCOIN IS DEADââŠ
đ No quantum computer has demonstrated the ability to break Bitcoinâs cryptography at this scale today.
But hereâs the real question:
Will Bitcoin upgrade its defenses before quantum computing becomes a serious threat? đ
Because waiting until the threat arrives to start preparing would be one expensive mistake.
đ The challenge isnât surviving a quantum attack today.
Itâs making sure Bitcoin is ready for tomorrow.
DYOR. Stay informed. Donât panic.$STRK
