Someone has put forward a rather bold idea: hoping that the progress of Quantum Computing can stagnate or even disappear. The reason is that once Quantum Computing truly matures, Bitcoin will need to adapt to the cryptographic standards of the post-quantum era, a process that will be quite complex. From the transformation of the Consensus Mechanism, address upgrades to wallet migration, every step is interconnected. Not only are there numerous challenges on the technical level, but the coordination difficulty among ecological participants grows exponentially. From another perspective, this concern reflects a real issue that Bitcoin currently faces—how long will it take for the industry to reach a consensus and complete the technical upgrades before the threat of Quantum Computing truly arrives? This is not only an engineering problem but also a governance challenge.

This guy definitely has a big brain. Hopefully, quantum computing will die out to protect Bitcoin. That's a bit outrageous. --- Rather than hoping for the demise of quantum computing, why not see if the Bitcoin community is truly taking action? It feels like everyone is just dragging their feet. --- Basically, it's just fear of trouble. Everyone knows that transforming consensus is difficult, but someone has to take the lead. --- What if the quantum crisis really happens? Should we start preparing now or wait until something goes wrong? That's the real issue. --- The frustrating governance problem—technology isn't really the main issue; it's the bunch of people arguing and bickering. --- Want quantum computing to disappear? Dream on. What we should be thinking about is how to upgrade and respond, or else it will be really awkward.

To be honest, instead of praying for the demise of quantum computing, it's better to start pushing upgrade plans now... procrastination is the real enemy.

This guy wants to see Quantum Computing disappear, how should I put it... it really reflects the real dilemma we face. To be honest, rather than praying for Quantum Computing to stagnate, it would be better to start promoting the deployment of post-quantum Cryptography standards now; otherwise, when that day comes, it might really be too late. Want to halt Quantum Computing? That's unrealistic, this wave cannot be stopped. The key point should be whether the Bitcoin ecosystem can quickly coordinate and upgrade; that's what matters. Hey, the problem isn't really the technical difficulty, but how so many stakeholders can unify their opinions... isn't that harder than writing code? The quantum threat is still far off, but we should be preparing now; sharpening the axe does not delay the work of cutting firewood. This logic is a bit funny... avoiding risk is not as good as actively responding.

Ha, hoping for the demise of Quantum Computing? This idea is too absurd. --- Rather than praying for the death of quantum computing power, why not quickly form a working group to finalize the post-quantum cryptography standards? --- Laughing to death, this is like saying we hope the internet stagnates, which is just childish. The real question is whether the BTC community has the courage to make difficult upgrades. --- Wait, is this guy saying that the quantum threat is far away enough that we can be relaxed? Then shouldn't we be getting tense right now? --- To be frank, the governance efficiency of Bitcoin is really concerning. After ten years of honing a consensus, what will we do when quantum comes? --- Instead of betting on the failure of quantum computing, let's see how Ethereum responds. Although it's not great either, at least they are taking action. --- This is the opposite of decentralization - no one has the power to enforce upgrades, so when the critical moment comes, it might just be stuck.

It's ridiculous, hoping Quantum Computing dies? This guy is really scared. --- To be honest, the governance issue of Bitcoin is scarier than the technology itself; a group of people can argue for ten years. --- Ha, this is the mess that Satoshi Nakamoto left for us. --- It's funny, Quantum Computing stagnating actually means Bitcoin has no way out. --- The core issue is that no one really wants to upgrade proactively; when the threat comes, everyone regrets it.
