.@rcarback on the institutional timeline for quantum risk:
"Black swan probability is less than 1% right now. Past 1% by end of 2027. 5-20% in 2028... If you're an institution, you should have a solution in place by 2028 or 2029."
Plan accordingly.

"First they ignore you, then they start fighting you. We're now on the 'they're trying to start joining us' phase."

Quantum computing and Bitcoin is a nuanced conversation. The risk isn't uniform across the network, and the game theory around how a quantum capability would actually be used matters just as much as the technology itself.
@rcarback of Postquant labs, joined BitGo's High Roller Summit to break it down.
The first circumnavigation of Earth was a quantum optimization problem without a quantum computer.
270 sailors left on Magellan’s Victoria. 18 came back.
@nolimithodl is backing @quipnetwork to bring quantum annealing to crypto-native coordination problems.

This GPT Image 2 prompt is going insanely viral right now.
“Redraw the attached image in the most clumsy, scribbly, and utterly pathetic way possible. Use a white background, and make it look like it was drawn in MS Paint with a mouse. It should be vaguely similar but also not really, kind of matching but also off in a confusing, awkward way, with that low-quality pixel-by-pixel feel that really emphasizes how ridiculously bad it is. Actually, you know what, whatever, just draw it however you want.”
ICYMI: While debates continue on how to protect Bitcoin from quantum threats, we’ve built a solution that doesn’t require forking, freezing tokens, or moving your Bitcoin.

If you have assets on @solana, you have two options to protect them from quantum threats:
Wait a few years for the network to upgrade, or secure them today on Quip Network and get rewarded—no asset transfer required.
Is quantum computing a genuine threat to bitcoin, or is it overblown? It's one of the most debated questions in the space right now, and we're putting the right people in the room to find out.
