#BTC资金流动性 Quantum Computing threatens to approach, will the myth of "absolute security" of Bitcoin collapse?

Recently, the crypto community has exploded. Analyst Nic Carter put forward a painful point: the threat of Quantum Computing to Bitcoin is moving from the lab to reality, and we may not have as much reaction time as we imagined.

How serious is the problem? Key data overview:

**The 1.7 million BTC in slumber has become a target**

These Bitcoins have been lying in early addresses, inactive for at least a decade, and some have been sealed since the era of Satoshi Nakamoto. The problem is: these old addresses use the traditional ECDSA signing mechanism, which is like a paper-thin defense against quantum computers. Once quantum computing makes breakthroughs in the field of cryptography, these "static reserves" will be instantly exposed to the light.

**The technological race has begun**

The number of quantum bits in global laboratories doubles every year. It is widely expected that practical quantum computers will take another 5-10 years, but this time window is already very tight—upgrading cryptography, hard forks in the network, user migration, each link carries its own risks.

**The trust foundation of the trillion-level ecosystem is shaken**

The core value proposition of Bitcoin is "cryptography is unbreakable." Once this promise is breached by Quantum Computing, the entire confidence system of the cryptocurrency market must be re-evaluated. This is not only a technical issue but also a market psychology issue.

**What should be done now?**

The Bitcoin community has been discussing anti-quantum upgrade solutions, but the execution difficulty is high—both maintaining backward compatibility and covering all owners of dormant addresses. The key is to complete the technological iteration as soon as possible and not wait until Quantum Computing truly crosses the critical point.

The outcome of this race concerns the future of the entire crypto ecosystem.
