  • Coinbase Urges Bitcoin Quantum-Resistance Preparations Amid Growing Threat
    June 11, 2026, 7:36 PM EDT. Coinbase's quantum advisory council urges blockchain communities to initiate post-quantum migration now, citing a future threat from quantum computers capable of breaking Bitcoin's cryptographic protections. The council estimates about 7 million Bitcoin are vulnerable due to exposed public keys and address reuse, including coins believed to be from Bitcoin's creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. They caution that no quantum computer currently poses a risk, but timelines are uncertain. The council outlines options for handling coins left on vulnerable legacy addresses: freezing, doing nothing, or incremental migration steps. This proactive stance aims to safeguard Bitcoin and other major blockchains against cryptographic attacks expected as early as 2030, emphasizing technical upgrades should proceed before consensus on coin management is reached.
