LATEST: ⚡ Bitcoin developers are proposing to eventually freeze coins in quantum-vulnerable addresses, including a $74 billion stash in early wallets, drawing pushback from some in the community. https://t.co/GV7KRrVFx1 ...

Are we getting a new Bitcoin fork?Bitcoin devs want to freeze quantum vulnerable wallets via BIP-361.Satoshi's 1.1M BTC included.Not sure what % of the community wants to freeze anyone else's Bitcoins.Some core devs don't even admit quantum is a real risk at all (post lined in comments).There could be some old OG sleeping and maybe walking one day with his BTC gone.Philosophical forks (not technical) are my favorite. Entertaining. We had a few:- Bitcoin Cash (2017): payments vs store of value?- Bitcoin Gold ...

Bitcoin developers just proposed freezing early BTC wallets foreverBitcoin developers led by Jameson Lopp have published BIP-361, a post-quantum migration proposal. It requires holders to move their coins to quantum-resistant addresses or face permanent freezing by the network.The plan would phase out legacy ECDSA and Schnorr signatures over several years, rendering them invalid if quantum computing threats materialize.Developers argue the move is a necessary defensive measure to protect the network before ...

BIP-361 Proposes Freezing Quantum-Vulnerable Bitcoin AddressesBitcoin developers and researchers have proposed BIP-361, which suggests freezing early Bitcoin addresses considered to have quantum vulnerabilities—primarily P2PK addresses with publicly exposed public keys—to prevent future quantum computers from deriving private keys from public data and stealing funds. ...

Introducing NVIDIA Ising, [music] an open family of AI models created for the workloads that define the path [music] to useful quantum computing. Ising calibration is a pre-trained vision [music] language model that rapidly automates the tasks needed to keep quantum processors running. Ingesting measurement [music] results, it identifies necessary corrections, dramatically accelerating what once was a tedious manual process.The Ising [music] decoding model performs the classical computations needed to deter ...

One of the most important Bitcoin conversations is happening tomorrow.At 3 PM CET, @EliBenSasson and @avihu28 will explain how Bitcoin can become quantum-safe without a soft fork.Be early on this one 🫵StarkWare 🥷 (@StarkWareLtd):Let’s discuss: Quantum-safe Bitcoin transactions!@avihu28’s paper sparked serious attention, and for a good reason.So it’s time to break it down and discuss it:- Did Avihu save Bitcoin?- Is this the perfect solution?- What should Bitcoin do about quantum computers?Join https://t.co/ ...

Supercomputing has transformed how we understand our world and build new technologies. Accelerated quantum supercomputers promise to take these capabilities to a whole new level. By using qubits change how we compute.They'll also expand what we can compute. This will drive breakthroughs across use cases, from drug discovery to materials science. To optimization challenges.But turning this vision of useful, accelerated quantum supercomputers into reality isn't easy. It relies on state of the art qubit hardwa ...
